- This National Science Foundation (NSF) Polar Programs (CFDA 47.078) Project Grant award of $139,073 supports collaborative research to map the extent of the Arctic capillary hydrological system and advance understanding of how it has changed over time. The project aims to produce a pan-Arctic map of the capillary drainage network, which serves as an indicator of ice-rich permafrost thaw, and make the geospatial data publicly accessible. Field observations have shown increased Arctic river runoff...
- The National Science Foundation awarded The Johns Hopkins University a $466,423 Project Grant under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) for work spanning March 15, 2023 through February 28, 2026. The university will utilize ocean models to understand how melting Arctic ice and precipitation influence ocean currents in the North Atlantic. Researchers will track Arctic waters using novel approaches including artificial intelligence to determine the fate of Arctic water and sources of unusually...
- This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Polar Programs (CFDA 47.078) supports a postdoctoral research project to track long-term changes in Arctic lake area using high-resolution satellite data. The $198,217 award, effective January 1, 2025 through December 31, 2025, aims to reduce uncertainties in the magnitude and direction of Arctic lake area change by advancing understanding of interannual variation and developing a methodological approach to identify long-term...
- This federal Project Grant award of $451,779 from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) supports a collaborative research project to measure the East Greenland Coastal Current on the Northeast Greenland Shelf. The project aims to determine how much fresh, low-salinity water is carried from the Arctic Ocean into the North Atlantic and how this transport may vary as the Greenland and Arctic ice sheets melt. To achieve this, the award will fund the deployment of an...
- This $234,658 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Polar Programs (CFDA 47.078) supports continued sampling and water chemistry analysis of the Yukon and Mackenzie Rivers as part of the Arctic Great Rivers Observatory (ArcticGRO) project. The award will extend crucial time-series data collection on river discharge and water chemistry, which informs understanding of Arctic land-ocean dynamics that impact U.S. interests in the region, including economic development,...
- This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation (NSF) Division of Polar Programs (CFDA 47.078) will support the continued operation of the Arctic Great Rivers Observatory (ArcticGRO) to study water discharge and chemistry in the six largest Arctic rivers. The $229,654 award, effective September 1, 2025 through August 31, 2028, will fund the collection and curation of essential time-series data on the Yukon and Mackenzie Rivers, as well as the analysis of archived samples to...
- This National Science Foundation (NSF) Project Grant award under the Polar Programs grant program (CFDA 47.078) supports a collaborative research effort to investigate how physical oceanographic processes, such as water circulation and mixing, shape the productivity of fjord ecosystems in Greenland. The $1,038,209 award, effective from September 1, 2024 to August 31, 2027, will fund field observations, computer modeling, and analysis to elucidate the linkages between physical transport...
