This Project Grant award of $397,338 from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) supports a research project titled "EMBRACE-EAR-GROWTH: Dating Ice Retreat and Advance along the Lobate Southern Margin of the Laurentide Ice Sheet with Terrestrial Cosmogenic Nuclides" at Eastern Michigan University (EMU). The project aims to collect 80 new cosmogenic nuclide exposure ages to reconstruct the melting histories of the Lake Michigan, Saginaw, and Huron lobes of...
This National Science Foundation (NSF) Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) Project Grant award in the amount of $317,272 will fund the development of new computational methods to simulate and advance the understanding of the dynamic interplay between the Earth's surface and interior processes. The principal awardee, the University of Colorado, will couple two widely used community codes - ASPECT (originally for simulating mantle dynamics) and LANDLAB (for modeling surface processes) - to enable...
This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation (NSF) under the Computer and Information Science and Engineering (CISE) Federal Grant Program (CFDA 47.070) provides $491,643 to develop a transparent computational and data management infrastructure for polar radiocarbon chronology. The goal is to create a centralized, dynamically-updated resource for radiocarbon data to improve modeling of ice sheet changes and sea level rise. The award, effective January 1, 2025 through December...
This $973,521 project grant awarded by the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Computer and Information Science and Engineering (CISE) program (CFDA 47.070) will develop a transparent-middle-layer data management and analysis tool to enable synoptic applications of radiocarbon data for improving ice sheet modeling and projections of future sea level rise. The grant recipient, the Trustees of the Colorado School of Mines, will work directly with the ice sheet science community to create this...
This National Science Foundation Project Grant of $236,141 supports research by Columbia University under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) from May 15, 2022 to April 30, 2025. The research aims to reconstruct the missing geological record of late Proterozoic tectonism along the western margin of Laurentia using low-temperature thermochronology. Researchers will study the thermal imprint of sedimentary cover on basement rocks beneath major unconformities to fill a one-billion-year gap in the...
This $201,076 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation (NSF) Office of Advanced Cyberinfrastructure (under the CFDA program "Computer and Information Science and Engineering") aims to integrate two data systems, MacroStrat and Sedimentary Geochemistry and Paleoenvironments (SGP), to better link geochemical proxy records to crustal stratigraphic context. Key activities include: Connecting SGP sample data to MacroStrat's geologic units and columns Developing new web...
This $793,146 federal Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) supports a collaborative research project titled "How Much and Why Did Ice Sheets Melt During the Last Interglacial (HISEAS)". The project aims to better understand how Greenland and Antarctic ice sheets responded to past periods of natural warming, in order to improve predictions of future ice sheet behavior under climate change. The research will involve a combination of...
This Project Grant award of $213,705 from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Computer and Information Science and Engineering (CISE) Program (CFDA 47.070) is supporting the development of an interoperable toolchain called "SANDPIPER" to enable collaborative research in geomorphology, sedimentology, and stratigraphy. The key products and services being delivered through this 4-year award, which runs from August 2024 to July 2028, include: Designing and implementing an affordable...
This Project Grant award of $261,875 from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) supports a collaborative research project to study Antarctic ice margin dynamics by analyzing ice-rafted debris in sediment cores from the Southern Indian Ocean. The research team, led by the University of Delaware, will use the sediment records to reconstruct changes in Antarctic glacial activity over time, particularly focused on understanding how variations in Earth's orbital...
This $129,726 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) will fund a collaborative research project to develop a 500,000-year speleothem growth history near the southern margin of the Laurentide Ice Sheet in New York State. The research aims to determine if the ice sheet reached New York during each of the past five ice ages, which will provide insights into the consistency of ice sheet response to climate change drivers and improve estimates...
