The National Science Foundation's Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) awarded a $319,877 Project Grant to The Trustees of Columbia University in the City of New York to investigate seismogenesis and faults in Eastern North America. The project aims to develop new machine-learning and cross-correlation methods to detect previously undetected low-magnitude earthquake events, generating a high-resolution, deep-magnitude earthquake catalog for the region. This expanded seismic data is expected to illuminate active faults at depth and provide fundamental new insights into seismicity within stable continental regions like Eastern North America, which poses significant earthquake hazards despite its distance from plate boundaries. The project will run from September 1, 2025 through August 31, 2027.
