- The National Science Foundation awarded a $291,713 Project Grant under its Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (CFDA 47.075) program to the University of Arizona (doing business as the Arizona Board of Regents) to conduct a dendrochronology (tree-ring dating) study. This two-year project aims to establish a new high-resolution chronology for the archaeological record in a region that experienced cultural adaptation and transitions between the 8th and 12th centuries AD due to climate...
- This National Science Foundation (NSF) Division of Behavioral and Cognitive Sciences grant award, under the Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences program (CFDA 47.075), provides $221,804 to the University of Arizona's Laboratory of Tree-Ring Research (LTRR) from August 1, 2023 to July 31, 2025. The funding supports the LTRR's dendrochronological research, which utilizes tree-ring analysis to provide highly precise dating and chronology-building for archaeological sites and contexts. This...
- This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (CFDA 47.075) program provides $276,830 to the University of Arizona to conduct collaborative research on precisely dating archaeological evidence related to the population history and institutional development of ancient indigenous societies. The project aims to revise the timeline for population change and monumental construction by systematically re-dating wood and charcoal samples...
- This three-year, $1.28 million project grant from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) will fund the acquisition of a Mini Carbon Dating System (MICADAS) to support multi-millennial, multi-user carbon-14 dating applications at the University of Arizona's Laboratory of Tree-Ring Research (LTRR). The MICADAS instrument and associated sample preparation equipment will maximize throughput of precise, small-sample radiocarbon measurements from tree-rings and other...
- The University of Arizona was awarded a two-year, $143,148 Project Grant from the National Science Foundation to support the COLLABORATIVE RESEARCH: OPENDENDRO - ADVANCED OPEN-SOURCE TOOLS FOR PALEOENVIRONMENTAL RECONSTRUCTION project. The grant was awarded on June 1, 2021 under the NSF's Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050), which aims to expand fundamental knowledge and understanding of the integrated Earth system through basic research in atmospheric, earth, and ocean sciences. Through this...
- This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Integrative Activities program (CFDA 47.083) provides $229,198 to the University of Nevada, Las Vegas (UNLV) to build infrastructure and capacity for radiocarbon dating of non-structural carbohydrates in long-lived trees. The project aims to enhance understanding of the role of old carbohydrate reserves in trees' resilience to extreme climate events. The funding will support a fellowship for the principal investigator and a...
- This $203,991 project grant from the National Science Foundation Division of Polar Programs' Polar Programs federal grant program (CFDA 47.078) will fund research tracking divergent warming and tree growth patterns at Arctic treeline forests through February 2025. The University of Arizona will leverage existing tree ring data and assess current hypotheses for divergence between temperature variability and growth rates observed in boreal forests since the mid-20th century. Researchers will use...
- This federal Project Grant award of $149,939, made by the National Science Foundation's Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (CFDA 47.075) program, supports a study on "SOCIAL DYNAMICS IN LONG-TERM HUMAN-ENVIRONMENT INTERACTIONS" at Arizona State University (ASU). The study aims to integrate archaeological and paleoecological data to assess how human social dynamics, technological innovations, and environmental shifts interrelate. Key project activities include excavations,...
- This $429,227 Project Grant award, provided by the National Science Foundation's Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050), will support a collaborative research project to resolve uncertainty in past carbon-14 (Δ14C) spikes from tree rings. The goal is to better understand past solar energetic particle events, which pose risks to space-based infrastructure, by quantifying physiological sources of uncertainty in Δ14C measurements from tree rings. The project will use field and model-based experiments to...
