- This $345,000 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) is supporting research at the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) to investigate the rupture characteristics of large global earthquakes from 2000 to 2022. The project aims to improve the analysis of earthquake ruptures in real-time using an advanced seismic back-projection method, which will enable more accurate measurements of rupture speed, extent, and segmentation. The outcomes...
- This $100,000 Project Grant awarded by the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) under the Earthquake Hazards Program Assistance (CFDA 15.807) supports the development of a novel AI-enabled framework called WaveCastNet-V2 for forecasting earthquake ground motions. The International Computer Science Institute (ICSI), a non-profit research organization in Berkeley, California, will lead this collaborative research effort with the University of California, Berkeley. The key products and services to be...
- This $393,866 Project Grant awarded by the National Science Foundation's Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) supports a research study on the deformation signals and volcano-tectonic earthquakes at Mauna Loa Volcano in Hawaii. The research aims to use satellite data (InSAR) and seismic analysis to better understand the causes of volcanic unrest and potential warning signs before major eruptions. Key objectives include developing advanced deep learning methods to analyze ground deformation data,...

The research, conducted by the University of California, San Diego, aims to enable geologists to effectively study large earthquakes and assess the hazards they pose to California and Nevada. The project will produce publicly available...
- The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) awarded a $121,259 Project Grant under the Earthquake Hazards Program Assistance (CFDA 15.807) to the University of Wisconsin - Madison, which will be the lead institution on this project. The goal is to further improve a method for analyzing earthquake spectra to better estimate earthquake "stress drop" - a critical parameter for understanding earthquake physics and assessing seismic hazard. The project will apply this improved method to determine...
- This National Science Foundation (NSF) Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) project grant award of $122,773 to the San Diego State University Research Foundation will support collaborative research to identify earthquake-related damage preserved in fault zones and use this information to better assess potential earthquake hazards along known fault lines. The research, which will run from June 2025 to May 2028, aims to develop criteria to distinguish earthquake-related damage from long-term fault...
- This Project Grant award of $536,993.00 from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) will support a collaborative research project to measure the deformation of the seafloor off Kīlauea Volcano in Hawai'i over a 4-year period. The research will deploy a network of 4 seafloor geodesy sites to track horizontal displacement and reoccupy benchmarks to measure 20-year vertical deformation along a fault system underlying the volcano's submarine flank. The results will...
