- The National Science Foundation Office of Integrative Activities awarded the University of Washington $514,701 on September 1, 2026, under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) to study copper behavior in arc magmas using samples from Cascade volcanoes as a natural laboratory. The project examines how copper moves through magmatic systems during crystallization and degassing, focusing on short-lived mafic volcanoes in the Indian Heaven Volcanic Field in the central Cascade arc. Researchers...
- The National Science Foundation Division of Earth Sciences awarded the University of Florida $344,724 on August 1, 2026, under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) to investigate sulfur behavior in the volcanic critical zone—the hydrothermal-volcanic environment between magma and the Earth's surface—with implications for volcanic eruption forecasting and gas monitoring. The research examines how sulfur transitions from magma to surface across well-monitored active volcanoes, focusing on the...
- Cornell University was awarded a three-year, $433,198 Project Grant from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) beginning July 1, 2023. Under this award, Cornell will systematically map magma bodies beneath Cascades volcanoes in Washington, Oregon, and northern California through seismic imaging techniques. Working with the U.S. Geological Survey's Cascades Volcano Observatory, Cornell researchers will analyze seismic data from newly deployed instruments near volcano...
- This $494,982 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation (NSF) Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) supports a multidisciplinary research effort to reexamine the precursory activity leading up to the catastrophic Mount Mazama eruption in Oregon approximately 7,700 years ago. The research team, led by the University of Oregon, will track changes in the chemistry and physical properties of the magmatic system over time by analyzing ash, pumice, and lava samples from the precursor...
- The National Science Foundation Division of Earth Sciences awarded New Mexico Institute of Mining and Technology $415,488 on August 15, 2026, under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) to conduct multiscale seismic imaging analysis of the Cascadia volcanic arc in the Pacific Northwest. The work examines subsurface magma system structure beneath nine of eleven high or very high threat volcanoes classified by the United States Geological Survey using passive imaging techniques including...
- The National Science Foundation Office of Integrative Activities awarded $452,464 to the Trustees of The Colorado School of Mines on August 1, 2026, for a project grant focused on relative timing and temperature of copper mineralization in porphyry deposits. The project investigates earth processes that result in the formation of economic porphyry copper resources, which represent the world's dominant source of copper as a critical mineral. The Colorado School of Mines team will use the large...
- The National Science Foundation Division of Earth Sciences awarded Purdue University $317,121 on August 15, 2026, under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) to conduct multiscale seismic imaging analysis of the Cascadia volcanic arc. The project, a collaborative research initiative, will examine subsurface structures beneath nine of the eleven high-threat volcanoes in the Cascades to improve understanding of magma system variability, magma pathways, and reservoir locations across the volcanic...
- This $427,699 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) supports research to improve the understanding of how copper accumulates in significant concentrations, particularly in porphyry copper deposits. The project will test models of porphyry copper deposit formation by studying deposits in Sonora, Mexico, and develop geochemical tools to aid in the discovery of new copper deposits. The research will also train a Latino early-career scientist, a...
- This National Science Foundation (NSF) Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) Project Grant award of $296,096 to Brown University provides funding to investigate the crust and uppermost mantle beneath active volcanoes using new seismic analysis techniques. The 2-year project, starting on Sep 1, 2024, aims to advance understanding of how magma storage and migration affect the eruptibility of volcanoes in regions like Yellowstone, the Cascades Arc, and the Altiplano-Puna Volcanic Complex. Key...
- The National Science Foundation awarded the University of New Mexico $415,777 on August 1, 2026, under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) to investigate sulfur behavior in the volcanic critical zone and its implications for eruption forecasting and gas monitoring. The research will examine sulfur in volcanic gases, rocks, and magma at well-monitored active volcanoes to understand how sulfur moves from magma to the surface. This work supports hazard assessment and eruption forecasting in North...
