This project concerns mathematical problems arising in the modeling of systems composed of individual particles, such as the atoms/molecules in a gas confined by a container. Parti...
The Earth’s faults can rupture abruptly causing hazardous earthquakes, but some can also slip slowly, in events that can last hours to years. In the Cascadia Subduction Zone, slow...
Geologic storage of carbon dioxide (CO2) can be used to reduce CO2 in the atmosphere, mitigating its climate change impacts by removing it from the surface carbon cycle. This Indus...
NON-TECHNICAL SUMMARYBulk metallic glasses (BMGs) are a fairly new class of advanced material that has a non-crystalline (glassy) inner structure. They do not contain crystal-relat...
When geologists use rocks to go back in time to understand what Earth was like in the past, it can be challenging to pull apart the competing effects of climate and tectonics (i.e....
NONTECHNICAL SUMMARYPolymers are very long chain-like molecules that consist of repeating subunits. Depending on their underlying chemistry and architecture, certain polymers are k...
Volcanoes and their underlying magmatic plumbing systems (magma reservoirs, conduits) operate over timescales that vary between seconds (an explosive eruption) to several hundreds...
Species are going locally extinct in coastal ecosystems at an alarming rate, yet the ability to predict the consequences of these extinctions remains limited. In particular, the lo...
This is a project that is jointly funded by the National Science Foundation's Directorate of Geosciences (NSF/GEO) and the National Environment Research Council (NERC) of the...

Ocean ridges are the sites of 80% of Earth’s volcanism. These features emit carbon dioxide and exert an important control on the chemical composition of the oceans through deep sea...
NONTECHNICAL SUMMARYThis award supports theoretical and computational research and education to understand how quantum devices can be physically realized by defects in solids, as w...
This project will contribute to the national need for well-educated scientists, mathematicians, engineers, and technicians by supporting the retention and graduation of high-achiev...
Science is a process of inquiry that involves question asking, experimentation, and exploration. However, for youth, it is often presented as settled, a fixed collection of facts,...
This NSF Engines award to the Upstate New York Energy Storage Engine will address the entire battery technology value chain to establish a tech-based, industry-driven innovation hu...
Non-Technical AbstractThe ability to produce functional ceramics having tailored geometries has been elusive given the complexity of the underlying processes. The proposed work inv...
Cells must balance growth against division in order to achieve the appropriate size and ensure maximal fitness in changing environments. Deregulation of size control leads to loss...
This IRES project provides undergraduate and graduate students from the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga and other institutions with the opportunity to gain international res...
Large earthquakes have the potential to have catastrophic impacts on humans and infrastructure when risks are not mitigated. Earthquakes nucleate at depth, but it is the upper ~1 k...
Research in the 1960s revealed that Earth’s outer shell is broken into a dozen or so relatively rigid plates that represent the top of a convecting system in Earth’s deep interior....
