Dynamics on Translation Surfaces and on Spaces of Translation Surfaces
The field of dynamical systems studies the way points in a closed system, such as planetary motion, travel within that system over time. Ergodic theory uses the notion of measure,...
RCN: Integrating Organismal Biology into NEON
A central goal in the life sciences is understanding how organisms will cope with environmental change. This project funds a Research Coordination Network (RCN) that bring will tog...
NSFGEO-NERC: Scattering of ocean surface gravity waves by submesoscale turbulence
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 (UKRI/NERC) of the...
Collaborative Research: New Roles for Reactive Oxygen Species in Mediating Carbon Fluxes at the Terrestrial-Aquatic Interface
Wetlands in the north central region of the United States are important ecosystems that play critical roles in the regional carbon cycle and are likely to be dramatically affected...
Side-Chain Driven Assembly of Polymer Semiconductors
With the support of the Macromolecular, Supramolecular and Nanochemistry program in the Division of Chemistry, Prof. Natalie Stingelin and Dr. Anna M. Österholm of Georgia Institut...
K-Trivial Varieties - Degenerations, Automorphisms, and Periods
Algebraic geometry is concerned with the study of algebraic varieties, that is geometric objects defined by polynomial equations. Such objects are ubiquitous in mathematics, and ar...
BEE: The Evolution of Fluctuation-Dependent Species Coexistence
Understanding how similar species coexist has been a central question in ecology since its inception. The question is important because species diversity is a defining characterist...
CPS: Breakthrough: Analysis, Identification and Mitigation of Delay Performance Bottlenecks of Network Infrastructure in Cyber-Physical Systems
Modern societies are witnessing the prevalence of a wide assortment of distributed cyber-physical systems (CPS) built upon network infrastructure. International standards for missi...
Neo-sex chromosome evolution and impact on speciation-with-gene flow in oceanic island birds
A major goal of evolutionary biology is to determine the genetic changes responsible for speciation— the formation of new species. Most species are formed when two populations that...
Responsive materials from self-assembling nucleic acid nanoshapes
NON-TECHNICAL SUMMARYNucleic acids are biomolecules that lend themselves for the construction of new composite materials because of their ability to self-assemble in a predetermine...
Mathematical Questions in Kinetic Theory
This research project will address fundamental problems concerning solutions to partial differential equations that are used to model the dynamics of plasmas and fluids in physics....
Collaborative Research: A Synergistic Study of Aerosol Vertical Distributions and their Effects on Convective Clouds and Precipitation
Atmospheric aerosols, such as fine particles from the incomplete combustion of fossil fuels, wood and other fuels, can modify cloud formations and precipitation. Thus, they have pr...
RII Track-4: Statistically Significant Signatures of Dark Matter from Astrophysical Observations (WoU-MMA)
Dark matter composes 85% of the matter in the universe. Understanding the properties of this unknown matter sets the stage for many important advances for humankind as well as unde...
Movement compensation after rotator cuff tear: What is safe and what is risky?
Rotator cuff tear is a common musculoskeletal injury that affects more than half of adults over the age of 60-years. This injury is disabling because it disrupts the distribution o...
Molecular Probes for Vibrational Imaging of Cellular Targets: Ions and Reactive Species
With support from the Chemical Measurement and Imaging (CMI) and Chemical Structure, Dynamics, and Mechanisms B (CSDM-B) programs in the Division of Chemistry, Professor Daniela Bu...
Towards Subcritical Phase Transitions in Liquid Crystalline Elastomers
NON-TECHNICAL SUMMARY:Liquid crystalline materials are pervasive: they are the basis of devices in our homes, workspaces, automobiles, and throughout society. An emerging area of m...
Vinyl Diazonium Ions as Synthetic Intermediates
With the support of the Chemical Synthesis Program in the Division of Chemistry, Professor Matthias Brewer of the University of Vermont is developing new ways to make organic molec...
FRG: Collaborative Research: Matroids, Graphs, and Algebraic Geometry
Recent advances in matroid and graph theory fuse the methods of combinatorics with concepts from algebraic geometry to resolve longstanding conjectures and provide deep insights in...
Collaborative Research: Honest and Robust Inference with High Dimensional Data
Modern data analysis in economics and other sciences often involves situations in which researchers are interested in making predictions about or explaining the behavior of many in...
COLLABORATIVE RESEARCH: Investigating the link between modern spring activity and associated paleospring mounds in Death Valley, NP
In the coming decades, climate change is projected to reduce water availability in dryland regions and the already water-stressed regions of the southwestern United States. In orde...
