- This $116,693 Project Grant from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) supports collaborative research to illuminate fundamental climate processes that influenced terrestrial ecology in western Pangea during Earth's previous icehouse period. Key goals combine paleontology, isotope geochemistry, and magnetostratigraphy to: identify the stratigraphic position of the Carboniferous-Permian boundary in Utah's Cutler Group sedimentary rocks; determine the pace and...
- The Regents of the University of Minnesota received a $398,967 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation Division of Earth Sciences under the Geosciences federal grant program (CFDA 47.050) to conduct collaborative research calibrating the pace of paleotropical environmental and ecological change during Earth's previous icehouse period from 304 to 280 million years ago. The research aims to identify the stratigraphic position of the Carboniferous-Permian boundary and correlate...
- This $419,234 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) supports research to study the effects of climate change on mammalian functional diversity over long timescales. Key objectives include: Analyzing changes in mammal functional diversity, floral composition, and abiotic factors like temperature before, during, and after the Paleocene-Eocene Thermal Maximum (PETM) climate event in the Bighorn Basin, Wyoming. This will elucidate the...
- This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) supports collaborative research to study the effects of climate change on mammalian functional diversity. The $205,877 award to the Stony Brook University Research Foundation will generate 3D datasets from micro-CT scans of mammalian fossils and develop new AI tools to rapidly analyze functional traits like dental topography and limb morphology. This will characterize changes in mammalian functional...
- This collaborative research Project Grant, awarded by the National Science Foundation's Division of Environmental Biology under the Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074), provides $180,504 in funding to Western University of Health Sciences for a multidisciplinary paleontological and geochronologic study of ecosystem recovery following the Permo-Triassic Mass Extinction (PTME) approximately 251.9 million years ago. The award, effective February 1, 2026 through December 31, 2026, supports...
- The National Science Foundation (NSF) Division of Earth Sciences awarded a 3-year, $600,000 Project Grant to the Field Museum of Natural History, a non-profit research institution in Chicago, IL, to investigate ecosystem recovery from the Permo-Triassic mass extinction event. The key products and services to be delivered under this grant include: Synthesizing geochronologic age controls and precisely identifying the Permo-Triassic boundary in the Karoo Basin of South Africa. Analyzing shifts...
- This Project Grant from the National Science Foundation Office of Integrative Activities provides $160,019 to Idaho State University under the Integrative Activities federal grant program (CFDA 47.083) to conduct collaborative research reconstructing the geological record of late Proterozoic tectonism along the western margin of Laurentia. The research will use thermochronology studies of sedimentary and basement rocks to investigate ancient supercontinent breakup processes and fill a one...
- This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) will fund collaborative research to develop an integrated framework for understanding the Late Devonian mass extinctions and associated changes in ocean chemistry and climate. The $231,421 award to Texas A&M University aims to: Establish a new geologic framework linking Late Devonian mass extinctions to the formation of epeiric black shale deposits across North and South America using...
- Berkeley Geochronology Center will provide collaborative research on mammal evolution after the Cretaceous-Paleogene extinction event through a $183,887 Project Grant from the National Science Foundation Division of Earth Sciences Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050). Over three years from August 2023 to July 2026, the Center will generate and integrate fossil mammal and climate proxy records across the first seven million years of the Paleocene in eastern Montana. A diverse team of geologists...
- This $786,904 National Science Foundation project grant supports research to measure absolute paleo-surface temperatures for important past climate periods in the southwestern and northern United States.
