- This $193,418 National Science Foundation project grant through the Polar Programs federal grant program (CFDA 47.078) will fund research at the University of Alaska Fairbanks to map the capillary hydrologic system across Arctic tundra regions and assess its role in freshwater and carbon flows to major rivers. The three-year research project will use graph analysis techniques and deep learning algorithms applied to high-resolution satellite imagery to map ice wedges and the expanding capillary...
- The National Science Foundation Division of Polar Programs awarded $358,030 under the Polar Programs (CFDA 47.078) federal grant program to the University of Connecticut from July 1, 2023 to June 30, 2026. The award will support mapping of the capillary hydrological system across Arctic tundra to assess its role in generating water flow and lateral carbon flux to large rivers. Researchers will apply graph analysis techniques and deep learning algorithms to pan-Arctic ice-wedge polygon maps and...
- This three-year, $302,382 project grant from the National Science Foundation Division of Polar Programs will support the Woodwell Climate Research Center Inc. in mapping the capillary hydrological system across Arctic tundra regions. As permafrost thaws due to climate change, dense networks of small surface drainage channels are forming and expanding. These "capillaries" represent the origin of water flowing into large Arctic rivers and influence habitat, infrastructure hazards, and...
- This three-year, $294,517 National Science Foundation Division of Polar Programs project grant will support the development of geospatial products mapping the capillary hydrological system across Arctic tundra regions. The University of Massachusetts Amherst will produce a pan-Arctic map of the expanding network of small surface drainage channels that originate freshwater flows to larger Arctic rivers. Researchers will apply graph analysis techniques and deep learning algorithms to very...
- This Project Grant award, funded by the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Polar Programs (CFDA 47.078), is mapping the distribution of freshwater and dissolved organic matter in the Arctic Ocean over a 20-year period. The $648,455 award, effective September 1, 2025 through August 31, 2028, will combine data on organic matter composition, salinity, temperature, and water isotope composition to identify sources and variability of freshwater in the Arctic. This research aims to advance...
- 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 National Science Foundation (NSF) Polar Programs grant, awarded under CFDA 47.078, supports a research project at the University of New Mexico (UNM) to study the physical and chemical drivers of carbon cycling in Arctic landscapes. The $149,288 award will fund one postdoctoral researcher and analysis of field samples collected from the Canning River in Alaska. The project aims to develop a model simulating carbon flow across the Arctic landscape, including the transformation of...
- This $194,921 federal Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Polar Programs (CFDA 47.078) will fund collaborative research to constrain and understand regional modes of variability in the Atlantic Arctic over the next two years. The overarching goal is to quantitatively study climate patterns and their long-term changes in the Atlantic Arctic and sub-Arctic regions using a variety of data sources, including meteorological measurements, historical observations, and climate...
- This $1,039,772 federal Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Polar Programs (CFDA 47.078) supports research by the University of Alaska Fairbanks (UAF) to study the impacts of warming saline permafrost in the Arctic. The key research objectives are to: 1) Analyze the spatial distribution and properties of saline permafrost, 2) Assess how ice wedge formation and thaw have influenced near-surface saline permafrost, and 3) Determine the response of warming saline permafrost...
- The National Science Foundation (NSF) Division of Polar Programs awarded a $434,096 Project Grant to the Marine Biological Laboratory (MBL) for the period of April 1, 2024 to March 31, 2027. The grant, under the Polar Programs CFDA 47.078, will fund a collaborative research project to investigate the drivers and impacts of saltwater intrusion along the Arctic coastlines of Alaska's Beaufort Sea. The key objectives are to: 1) characterize subsurface temperature, water level, thaw depth, and...
