- This Project Grant award, funded by the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Polar Programs (CFDA 47.078), supports collaborative research to investigate how meltwater from surface channels called moulins affects the subglacial drainage system beneath Greenland's glaciers. The $469,008 award, effective from July 1, 2025 to June 30, 2028, will enable the investigators to conduct a field study using seismic sensors, radar, and ice movement measurements to track the evolution of hydraulic...
- The National Science Foundation's (NSF) Polar Programs (CFDA 47.078) has awarded a $160,021 Project Grant to the Trustees of Tufts College to conduct the "COLLABORATIVE RESEARCH: GREENFJORD-FIBER, OBSERVING THE ICE-OCEAN INTERFACE WITH EXCEPTIONAL RESOLUTION" scientific study. The project aims to use high-tech sensors and instruments to measure vibrations, temperature, and other data at the interface where Greenlandic glaciers meet the ocean. This will help researchers understand how...
- This Project Grant award, funded by the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Polar Programs (CFDA 47.078), will support a collaborative research project to quantify the physics of ice-ocean interactions at the interface of marine-terminating glaciers in Greenland. The $372,486 award, effective September 1, 2025 through August 31, 2029, will integrate direct measurements of submarine melt rates and near-ice boundary-layer dynamics with numerical simulations to improve next-generation climate...
- This National Science Foundation (NSF) Polar Programs (CFDA 47.078) Project Grant award of $497,704 to the University of Washington supports a collaborative research study called the "GREENFJORD-FIBER" project. The goal of this project is to use advanced instrumentation, including distributed temperature sensing (DTS) and distributed acoustic sensing (DAS) systems, to better understand how Greenlandic glaciers interact with the ocean, particularly the processes by which icebergs detach...
- This $411,096 federal Project Grant award was provided by the National Science Foundation's Polar Programs (CFDA 47.078) to The Leland Stanford Junior University (Stanford University). The project aims to utilize machine learning and physics-based models to map and understand how surface meltwater on the Greenland ice sheet reaches the bedrock, which can impact ice sheet dynamics and response to climate change. Key products and services to be delivered include: Development of open-source deep...
- This five-year, $565,180 Project Grant from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) supports collaborative research on the impacts of global changes on glacial fjords, ecosystems, and communities in Greenland. The awardee, Bigelow Laboratory For Ocean Sciences, will partner with Pinngortitaleriffik / Gronlands Naturinstitut to study glacial fjords, ecosystems, and local communities in Greenland through 2026. The Geosciences program aims to expand fundamental knowledge...
- The National Science Foundation awarded a $2.8 million project grant under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) to Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University for the period of October 1, 2022 to December 31, 2026.
