- The National Science Foundation (NSF) awarded a $441,467 Project Grant under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) to the Trustees of the Colorado School of Mines (CSM) to develop a new artificial intelligence (AI) framework for analyzing hyperspectral data to map ore deposits. This 3-year project, starting on Sep 1, 2025, aims to improve the effectiveness of hyperspectral mineral mapping to accelerate the identification of critical mineral resources, enhance the nation's economic...
- This Project Grant award of $335,489 from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) supports collaborative research on depth-dependent decarbonation processes in the Sierra Nevada mountains of California. The research aims to improve understanding of how the interaction between hot magma and the Earth's crust drives metamorphic changes, mineral transformations, and the release of elements like carbon. The project will provide valuable insights into the geochemical...
- The National Science Foundation (NSF) awarded a $400,000 Project Grant under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) to the University of Illinois. The project aims to develop and introduce a novel, equation-based modeling workflow to the geosciences community. This system separates the model design (the equations) from the model implementation (the computer code), allowing geoscientists to focus on building equation systems that represent their areas of expertise. The project consists of three...
