Award Summary The National Science Foundation (NSF) Office of Integrative Activities awarded $361,237 to The Research Foundation for the State University of New York (operating as Stony Brook University) on September 1, 2026, under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) to support a five-year CAREER project examining surface-controlled carbonate mineral nucleation. The research will quantify interfacial energies governing carbonate mineral formation at water-rock interfaces using atomic force microscopy, flow-through reactors, and batch precipitation experiments. The project will characterize magnesium, iron, and lithium carbonates and generate improved geochemical simulation models of nucleation processes, with results directly applicable to groundwater management and critical mineral recovery applications. Beyond research deliverables, the award includes significant broader impacts components, including development of hands-on museum modules to expand geoscience awareness and support for student research experiences. The award specifies no planned sub-awards. Research activities will be conducted in Stony Brook, New York, with an ultimate completion date of August 31, 2031.
