- The National Science Foundation awarded Rowan University a $166,722 Project Grant under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) to characterize stratigraphy and paleotemperature estimates from the Last Interglacial period in the tropical Pacific Ocean. The university will analyze sediment cores from the eastern equatorial Pacific to reconstruct El Niño Southern Oscillation behavior during the warm period known as Marine Isotope Stage 5e, which occurred approximately 119,000 to 126,000 years ago....
- This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) will support research led by Rutgers, The State University to improve understanding of how continental shelf regions, shorelines, and coastlines have responded to changes in sea level, sediment supply, and tectonic processes over the Miocene epoch. The $462,435 award will fund the integration of sediment core data, high-resolution 3D seismic imaging, and forward stratigraphic modeling to test...
- The National Science Foundation (NSF) awarded a $5,012,875 Project Grant under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) to the Trustees of the Colorado School of Mines to conduct a shallow drilling campaign and study the Pleistocene hydrogeology, geomicrobiology, nutrient fluxes, and freshwater resources of the Atlantic continental shelf off the coast of New England. The project aims to better understand the emplacement mechanisms, residence time, and long-term climate influences on the offshore...
- The National Science Foundation Division of Earth Sciences awarded The Research Foundation For The State University Of New York $411,477 on September 1, 2026, under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) to fund paleosalinity research in the Maritimes Basin. The recipient will reconstruct changes in marine influence throughout the Late Paleozoic Era using whole-rock elemental paleosalinity proxies—boron/gallium ratios, excess boron, and strontium/gallium ratios—combined with oxygen isotope...
- The National Science Foundation Division of Earth Sciences awarded $112,297 to the Scripps Institution of Oceanography at the University of California San Diego on September 1, 2026, under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) to study Early Eocene fossil plant assemblages from 12 sites across Wyoming, Colorado, and Utah. The project will establish precise chronologies for the fossil sites, develop a comprehensive taxonomic dataset of fossil plants including leaves, flowers, fruits, seeds, and...
- The National Science Foundation Division of Earth Sciences awarded Rutgers, The State University $297,999 on September 1, 2026, under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) to measure sulfur isotope chemistry in volcanic samples spanning more than 2.7 billion years to the present day. The project will generate a record of sulfur isotopes in plume-derived magmas across Earth's history to test hypotheses about how sulfur in Earth's deep mantle has changed over time and whether those changes reflect...
- This $374,395 National Science Foundation project grant through the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) will fund research at Rutgers University and Princeton University from December 2022 through November 2024. The grant supports the identification of silicate diagenesis processes controlling pore fluid chemistry in marine sediments and their influence on the geochemical budgets of magnesium, strontium, lithium, and boron through analysis of pore fluid samples from the Mid-Norwegian Margin....
- This Project Grant from the National Science Foundation's Division of Ocean Sciences, under the Geosciences federal grant program (CFDA 47.050), provides $726,244 to Rutgers, The State University for research correcting seasonal biases in sea surface temperature proxies. The research aims to improve paleoceanographic reconstructions by developing approaches to extract seasonal and mean annual temperature records from proxies. It will test these approaches in climate models under different...
- This National Science Foundation (NSF) Project Grant under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) provides $508,160 in funding to Rutgers, The State University to conduct collaborative research on long-term changes in atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO2) levels during past warm periods. The project aims to reconstruct the movement of the Southern Westerly Winds and evaluate its impact on the Southern Ocean's biological carbon pump and atmospheric CO2 concentrations over the last 900,000 years. The...
- The National Science Foundation Division of Earth Sciences awarded Yale University $386,921 on July 1, 2026, under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) to develop next-generation geochemical box models that interpret chemical signals preserved in rocks to reconstruct Earth's early history and evolution. The project, "Bridging Geochemical Observations with Continental Growth and Emergence: A New Modeling Approach with Heterogeneous Crustal Reservoirs," will incorporate finite-time...
