- This Project Grant award of $690,855 from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) supports the development of novel, low-cost methods to measure seafloor motion over time. The University of Houston System, doing business as the University of Houston, is leading this collaborative research effort to address the challenge of precisely monitoring the ocean floor, where many natural hazards such as earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, and landslides originate. The project...
- This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation Division of Ocean Sciences totals $137,255 to support the development of a plate-scale distributed strain sensing system as a candidate for earthquake early warning. Funded under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050), the University of California San Diego Scripps Institution of Oceanography will use the award period from October 1, 2022 to September 30, 2023 to establish the feasibility of measuring seafloor deformation along...
- This National Science Foundation (NSF) Project Grant award under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) provides $555,000 to the University of California San Diego (UCSD) Scripps Institution of Oceanography to extend the deployment of seafloor optical fiber strainmeters off the coast of Oregon. The goal is to capture additional offshore slow slip events in the Cascadia subduction zone and better understand the timing and mechanical linkage between shallow and deep slow slip zones. This two-year...
- This Project Grant award of $536,993.00 from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) will support a collaborative research project to measure the deformation of the seafloor off Kīlauea Volcano in Hawai'i over a 4-year period. The research will deploy a network of 4 seafloor geodesy sites to track horizontal displacement and reoccupy benchmarks to measure 20-year vertical deformation along a fault system underlying the volcano's submarine flank. The results will...
- This $249,924 Project Grant from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) supports the development of a long-lived, continuously operating seafloor geodesy reference station capable of operating in deep water. The grantee, Princeton University, will investigate using acoustic signals that only need to travel from the sea surface to the seafloor, removing the prior 3,000 meter depth limitation of existing seafloor geodesy techniques. This new approach involves...
- This National Science Foundation (NSF) Project Grant award under CFDA 47.050 Geosciences Program provides $227,183 to the University of Kansas Center for Research Inc. to extend the deployment of seafloor optical fiber strainmeters off the coast of Oregon. This two-year project aims to capture additional offshore slow slip events in the Cascadia subduction zone to better understand the timing and mechanics of slip in the shallow and deep portions of the plate interface. The results could improve...
- This $524,290 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) supports research at the University of California San Diego's Scripps Institution of Oceanography to develop new computational methods for geophysical data inversion. The project aims to generate models that can accurately represent sharp geological boundaries and quantify the uncertainties inherent in the inversion process, which has proven challenging with existing approaches. The work...
