The influence of hierarchical and multiscale river morphology and sediment heterogeneity on hyporheic exchange processes
Solutes, heat, and other dissolved constituents interact along rivers as river water and groundwater mix, often referred to as hyporheic exchange. Processes within the hyporheic zo...
Collaborative Research: GRate – Integrating data and modeling to quantify rates of Greenland Ice Sheet change, Holocene to future
The Greenland Ice Sheet has experienced devastating melt in recent years. Recent scientific reports highlight how vulnerable the Greenland Ice Sheet is to Arctic climate change and...
Achiral and Chiral Nanographene Synthesis Using an Alkyne Linchpin Strategy
With the support of the Chemical Synthesis Program in the Division of Chemistry, Wesley Chalifoux of the University of Nevada, Reno is studying ways to make nanographenes from smal...
Planning Grant: Engineering Research Center for Accelerated Formulations Engineering (CAFE)
Vaccines, paint, fuels, cosmetics, dyes, plastic packaging, and many other products are formulations: one or more active ingredients mixed or chemically packaged with other support...
EDGE FGT: NSF-BSF: Development of Viral Vectors for Amphibian Gene Delivery and Manipulation
Amphibians (frogs and salamanders) are key indicator species for environmental change; many are threatened by habitat loss, rising sea levels and changing temperatures as they are...
Collaborative Research: MODULUS: Data-Driven Discovery for Mechanisms of Nuclear Dynamics and Scaling
This award supports research on the fundamental biological question of scaling – how cells and organelles regulate size relative to the whole organism. The nucleus is a particular...
Collaborative Research: Understanding "wild-type" nanoplastic uptake in single microalgae cells with fluorescence tracking and computational modeling
Plastic products are essential for our daily life and underpin an expanding, multi-trillion-dollar global market across numerous industry sectors. However, the resulting plastic wa...
Collaborative Research: Humidity and Temperature Effects on Phase Separation and Particle Morphology in Internally Mixed Organic-Inorganic Aerosol
With support from the Environmental Chemical Sciences Program in the Division of Chemistry at NSF, James Davies of the University of California-Riverside (UCR) and Ryan Davis of Tr...
Collaborative Research: MIM: Learning how mucus shapes and maintains microbiomes
Mucus, the slimy gel that lines all wet surfaces in our bodies, is a key ecological niche for microbiomes: It accommodates an incredible 100 trillion microbes, somehow selecting fo...
Towards the Rational Design of Ni & Co free Chalcogen Anion Redox Cathode Materials
Global energy demands and a desire for decreased reliance on fossil fuels have intensified research toward large-scale energy storage capabilities. Even though many years of active...
Collaborative Research: DMREF: GOALI: Discovering Materials for CO2 Capture in the Presence of Water via Integrated Experiment, Modeling, and Theory
The concentration of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere has risen rapidly over the past century, creating significant concerns about global warming and ocean acidification. Carbon ca...
Collaborative Research: MRA: Elucidating Plant and Mycorrhizal Fungal Relationships and Consequences Across Space and Time
Many plants are dependent on belowground fungi to help them obtain nutrients and respond to environmental stress. Revealing the patterns and drivers of these interactions is import...
Collaborative Research: EDGE FGT: Transformation and Genomic Resources to Advance Diverse, Emerging Model Angiosperms
The flowering plants, also known as angiosperms, encompass the most successful living group of land plants, and include all of our major domesticated crop plants. For these reasons...
Collaborative Research: Role of Polymer Sequence on Penetrant Transport in Charged Brushes
Molecular-scale brushes, created by grafting polymers to surfaces, can be used to control the properties of the surface, including its charge, wettability, permeability, and respon...
Stereoselective glycosylation via H-bond-mediated aglycone delivery
The Chemical Synthesis Program of the Chemistry Division supports the project by Professor Alexei Demchenko. Professor Demchenko is a faculty member in the Department of Chemistry...
EAGER: Methods for chromatin profiling of plant gametes and zygotes
Plant reproduction requires the fusion of a male gamete, a sperm cell, delivered by the pollen, and a female gamete, an egg cell within the ovule, to form a unique cell called the...
CAREER: Transformable and Reconfigurable Soft Robots
This Faculty Early Career Development (CAREER) award will introduce a novel systematic approach to combining simple soft robotic modules into sophisticated cyber-physical systems,...
RUI: Understanding Close White Dwarf Binaries Using Planetary Nebula Central Stars
Between one third to one half of all stars are found in binary systems, and many in their late evolutionary stages will become close white dwarf (WD) binary stars, a short-lived st...
MRI: Acquisition of a High Temperature and Pressure Solid-state NMR Spectrometer
The award supports the acquisition, installation, and shared research application of a state-of- the-art solid-state nuclear magnetic resonance (ssNMR) spectrometer system in the N...
COLLABORATIVE RESEARCH: Site Survey for Subglacial Bedrock Exposure Dating at the Margin of the Wilkes Basin in Northern Victoria Land
The goal of this project is to establish, through direct geological evidence, whether complete deglaciation of East Antarctic marine basins took place during past warm-climate peri...
