Project Grant 2514147
- This $284,304 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences program (CFDA 47.075) supports a multidisciplinary research initiative led by the University of Central Florida to investigate how the actions of non-elite individuals shaped the development of early urban centers. The project will employ intensive archaeological surveys, excavations, and scientific analyses to evaluate patterns of wealth, health, and economic activities among the...
- This two-year, $148,000 National Science Foundation project grant supports modeling of long-term urban and rural settlement dynamics through the Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences program (CFDA 47.075). The grant recipient will conduct archaeological and geospatial analyses to develop a predictive rural site distribution model and targeted survey of an urban hinterland in order to refine global urbanism models. Specifically, the recipient will use low-cost aerial and satellite imagery...
- The National Science Foundation awarded a $106,532 project grant to The University of Kentucky Research Foundation on May 1, 2021 for research titled "Collaborative Research: Changes in Landscape, Labor and Livelihood in Long Chronological Context." The grant is funded through the NSF's Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences program (CFDA 47.075), which supports basic research and education in these fields. Under the award, the University of Kentucky Research Foundation will conduct...
- This $213,844 Project Grant awarded by the National Science Foundation (CFDA 47.075 Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences) examines how financial and organizational structures in the mining and farming industries shape residential and economic outcomes in rural counties. The University of Kentucky Research Foundation, the award recipient, compiles datasets on agricultural and energy operators and owners, analyzes social-ecological relationships through network analysis and modeling, and...
- This National Science Foundation (NSF) Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (CFDA 47.075) Project Grant award of $106,623 to the University of Illinois will fund collaborative archaeological research to understand the relationship between people's investment in and identification with urban neighborhoods and the historical development of cities. The research team will use non-invasive geophysical survey, soil coring, and targeted excavation to compare two peripheral neighborhoods of an...
- This $100,608 Project Grant was awarded on August 15, 2025 by the National Science Foundation (NSF) under the Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (CFDA 47.075) program. The project investigates the relationships between human activities, place attachments, and environmental factors, with the goal of developing a generalized theory on how external pressures influence attachment to places. The research utilizes a mixed-methods approach, including mapping geographic patterns of human...
- This Project Grant award, funded by the National Science Foundation's Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (CFDA 47.075) program, supports a research project at Yale University that aims to understand the long-term impacts of neighborhood revitalization policies on individual and family economic outcomes. The $302,586 award, with a performance period from August 2025 to July 2028, will enable the researchers to systematically analyze historical records and administrative data using advanced...
- This Project Grant award, provided by the National Science Foundation's Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (CFDA 47.075) program, funds a comprehensive archaeological study of early human settlements in rural settings. The research builds on previous work, combining targeted excavations and remote sensing techniques to examine site occupancy during both the height and decline of the local society. The $236,131 award, valid from January 15, 2025 to December 31, 2027, investigates the...
- This $185,779 National Science Foundation project grant to The University of Toledo will fund collaborative research to understand how neighborhoods at the geographical margins of an ancient city may have been socially peripheral or fully engaged in central city projects and activities. The research team will examine two neighborhoods at the physical periphery of a prehistoric city occupied for roughly three centuries by both local and non-local peoples. Through non-invasive geophysical...
- This National Science Foundation project grant of $212,756 awarded on September 1, 2022 will fund research into the economic integration of rural regions in prehistoric times. Under the Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences program (CFDA 47.075), Arizona State University will investigate trade and economic behavior in a peripheral rural area located far from major population centers through analyzing excavated archaeological artifacts. Researchers will determine if elite trade networks,...
This federal Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (CFDA 47.075) program investigates the economic, social, and demographic processes that contribute to the success of some cities while others in the same area decline. The $147,648 award, effective September 1, 2025 through August 31, 2028, will fund collaborative research to create a detailed map of ancient residential areas using LiDAR technology and conduct excavations to gain robust insights into how regional and domestic economies intersected. The findings have the potential to impact urban planning and address key questions regarding urbanism and economics. The research is being conducted by the University of Kentucky Research Foundation, a non-profit subsidiary of the University of Kentucky that specializes in executing federal contracts and grants across diverse scientific and technological domains.
