Description

The National Science Foundation is offering a grant opportunity titled "Centers for Innovation and Community Engagement in Solid Earth Geohazards". This grant aims to support university-based centers that advance research on the fundamental processes of solid Earth geohazards. The centers will focus on addressing major science challenges related to faulting, volcanoes, mass movements, and other dynamic processes. The goal is to gain a better understanding of earthquakes, volcanism, topographic change, and how Earth science research can reduce the risk and toll of geohazards. The program will provide funding for two center operation awards, which will support the operation of fully developed centers. These centers will engage in community outreach, hazard mitigation, and other activities to broaden participation in the geoscience workforce and expand the impact of research in solid Earth geohazards. The grant does not require cost sharing or matching. The total program funding is $7,000,000, and the closing date for submissions is March 15, 2024. For more information, please visit the NSF Publication 24-515.

National Science Foundation
The National Science Foundation is offering a grant opportunity titled "Cooperative Studies of the Earth's Deep Interior". This grant aims to support collaborative and interdisciplinary studies of the Earth's interior within the framework of the community-based initiative known as Cooperative Studies of the Earth's Deep Interior (CSEDI). The funding will be used to conduct basic research on the character and dynamics of the Earth's mantle and core, their influence on the evolution of the Earth, and processes operating within the deep interior that affect or are expressed on the Earth's surface. The projects may involve field, laboratory, and computational studies with observational, theoretical, or experimental approaches. The grant is open to non-profit, non-academic organizations, institutions of higher education, and other eligible institutions. The deadline for proposal submission is September 23, 2024. The estimated total program funding is $3,000,000, and it is expected that 15 awards will be granted. For more information and to submit a proposal, please visit the NSF Publication 22-547 at http://www.nsf.gov/publications/pub_summ.jsp?ods_key=nsf22547.
Tectonics
Active
National Science Foundation
The National Science Foundation is offering a grant opportunity titled "Tectonics" under the category of Science and Technology and other Research and Development. This grant aims to support a wide range of investigations focused on understanding the deformation of the terrestrial continental lithosphere. The program focuses on deformation processes and their tectonic drivers at any depth within the continental lithosphere, on various time-scales, and at different length-scales. The grant has an award ceiling of $500,000 and an award floor of $30,000. The estimated total program funding is $11,700,000, with an expected number of 50 awards to be granted. The grant is open to non-profit, non-academic organizations directly associated with educational or research activities, as well as institutions of higher education. Proposals can be submitted at any time. For more information, please visit the NSF Publication 22-515 at http://www.nsf.gov/publications/pub_summ.jsp?ods_key=nsf22515.

Geomorphology and Land-use Dynamics (GLD)
Active
National Science Foundation
The National Science Foundation is offering a grant opportunity titled "Geomorphology and Land-use Dynamics (GLD)". This grant supports innovative fundamental research into processes that shape and modify earth's landscapes over a variety of length and time scales, with a focus on the Holocene. The program encourages research that quantitatively investigates the coupling and feedback among such processes, their rates, and their relative roles, especially in the contexts of variation in biologic, climatic, and tectonic influences and in light of changes due to human impacts. The grant aims to increase the participation of underrepresented groups in research and education, such as women, persons with disabilities, underrepresented minorities, and those from geographically underrepresented areas in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM). The grant is open to non-profit, non-academic organizations, institutions of higher education, and international branch campuses of US institutions of higher education. The total program funding is estimated to be $7,640,100, with an expected number of 40 awards. Proposals can be submitted at any time.

Pathways into the Earth, Ocean, Polar and Atmospheric & Geospace Sciences
Active
National Science Foundation
The National Science Foundation is offering a grant opportunity titled "Pathways into the Earth, Ocean, Polar and Atmospheric & Geospace Sciences". This grant aims to support education, learning, training, and professional development within the geosciences community. The primary goal is to increase the number of students pursuing undergraduate and/or postgraduate degrees in geoscience by engaging them in authentic, career-relevant experiences. The grant features three funding tracks that focus on Geoscience Learning Ecosystems (GLEs): Informal Networks, Undergraduate Preparation, and Graduate Opportunities. These tracks aim to support geoscience learning and experiences in informal settings, engage pre-college and undergraduate students in extra-curricular experiences and training, and improve research and career-related pathways into the geosciences. Non-profit, non-academic organizations, institutions of higher education, and international branch campuses of US institutions of higher education are eligible to submit proposals. The total program funding is $6,000,000. The deadline for submission is February 28, 2025.

Geoinformatics
Active
National Science Foundation
The National Science Foundation is offering a grant opportunity titled "Geoinformatics". This grant aims to fund the deployment, operation, and sustainment of cyberinfrastructure (CI) resources to serve and support Earth Sciences research and education. The Geoinformatics program focuses on enabling the management and access to data, physical samples, and other research products in the Earth Sciences. It also aims to facilitate the development and use of open-source software and modeling capabilities, foster transparent and reproducible modes of research and education, and increase the capacity of Earth Scientists to utilize cyberinfrastructure resources. The program will consider proposals within two tracks of support: the Innovative Resources track and the Sustained Resources track. The Innovative Resources track supports the early-stage development, deployment, and community-building for CI resources, while the Sustained Resources track supports the sustained operations and user community support for mature CI resources. Interested applicants must be non-profit, non-academic organizations directly associated with educational or research activities, or institutions of higher education accredited in the US. The closing date for this grant opportunity is December 6, 2024. For more information, please visit the [NSF Publication 23-594](http://www.nsf.gov/publications/pub_summ.jsp?ods_key=nsf23594).
