Collaborative Research: A Continuous 60,000 Year Sediment Record Documenting Abrupt to Precession-Scale Climate Change and Ecosystem Response at Fish Lake UT, Upper CO River Basin
Over the last several decades increased drought severity and wildfire intensity around the globe has drawn attention to a need for an improved understanding of how climate change o...
Collaborative Research: Visible Reflectivity of Jupiter and Saturn. Implications for Giant Planets Thermal Evolution
Jupiter and Saturn are the two largest planets in the solar system and they are both thought to generate significant heat internally. To measure the difference between heat absorbe...
Pursuing a Non-Standard Higgs Boson Off the Beaten Path
The Standard Model of particle physics has been a successful theory, agreeing with decades of experimental observations involving weak, electromagnetic, and strong interactions. Th...
MRI: Acquisition of a NanoRaman Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM) System for Multi-Property Measurements in Electronic and Other Materials
Non-Technical Description:This major research instrumentation award supports the acquisition of a NanoRaman AFM (atomic force microscopy) system at Northwestern University (NU). Th...
Collaborative Research: Generation of Rock Damage and Localization of Seismicity Before Large Earthquakes
How large earthquakes are generated, and how to forecast them, remain fundamental unsolved scientific questions. They have strong implications for human societies. Large earthquake...
Harnessing nonlinear electrokinetic effects for microparticle identification and separation in microfluidic devices
Portable laboratories, also known as lab-on-a-chip systems, are capable of performing multiple analyses in a device that will easily fit in your hand. Microfluidics, which is the m...

RUI: Collaborative Research: Understanding the limits of AGN feedback: a dedicated study of extremely high velocity outflows
Part 1In less than one century, our knowledge about the universe has shifted from thinking that we were in the one and only galaxy in the universe to realizing that there are billi...
PM: RUI: Searching for Optical Cycling in TlF and Long-Range Spin-Spin Interactions
Precision measurements of the spin interactions of elementary particles can provide new insights into the fundamental laws of nature. Elementary particles have an intrinsic propert...
Collaborative Research: Hominoid origins in a unique paleocommunity
This project advances knowledge about a crucial time in primate evolution when the ancestors of apes and humans are thought to have first diverged from other primate lines. A team...
MAARCO – Multi-terrain Amphibious ARCtic ExplOrer
This grant promotes the progress of science and national prosperity through advancement in the field of amphibious and multi-terrain autonomous robots for exploring Earth’s polar r...
Stimuli-Responsive Soft Materials
Oil and water don't mix and exist as two separate phases of matter. Phase separation of soft matter mixtures such as lipids, oil and water can be exploited to create lipid coa...
Inviscid Limits, Uniqueness, and Anomalous Dissipation in Hydrodynamics
Turbulence, the complex, irregular and chaotic motion of fluids, is a ubiquitous and fundamental mechanism for the transfer of momentum and energy across spatio-temporal scales. Al...
Collaborative Research: Numerical methods for high-dimensional sticky diffusions
Numerical simulations can provide insight into many problems in science or engineering, for example by providing access to variables that are otherwise difficult or impossible to o...
