This $589,708 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) supports research to advance artificial intelligence (AI) methods for imaging and monitoring the Earth's subsurface. The project aims to develop a multi-task deep learning inversion framework that can simultaneously estimate subsurface velocity structures and earthquake source parameters using passive seismic data. By integrating deep learning with conventional full-waveform inversion...
This three-year, $489,305 National Science Foundation Project Grant will support the American Geosciences Institute in conducting research on how geoscience programs have adapted to natural disruptive events. Funded through the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050), the project aims to examine how such programs have managed impacts, identify operational and pedagogical outcomes that evolved from impacted departments, and determine how the geoscience community has leveraged lessons beyond directly...
This National Science Foundation (NSF) Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) Project Grant award in the amount of $317,272 will fund the development of new computational methods to simulate and advance the understanding of the dynamic interplay between the Earth's surface and interior processes. The principal awardee, the University of Colorado, will couple two widely used community codes - ASPECT (originally for simulating mantle dynamics) and LANDLAB (for modeling surface processes) - to enable...
This $499,943 Project Grant, awarded by the National Science Foundation's Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050), aims to build sustainable open science communities in the hydrology, oceans, and seismology disciplines. The project's key objectives are to: Develop community-vetted, discipline-specific data sharing frameworks and a web platform to implement them. Cultivate disciplinary leaders and liaisons to help sustain the data sharing frameworks. Capture the community practices to inform future use...
