Doctoral Dissertation Research: Evaluating the Efficacy of Broadening Participation Efforts Beyond University Settings
Diversity promotion projects and equity programs aim to make a positive impact on student and university life. While there is substantial data in the science of broadening particip...
Real-Time and Adaptive Chemical Kinetic Model Reduction Coupled with Turbulence
Combustion of fossil fuels remains the primary means of providing power needs of high energy density applications in this country and all industrial nations. The chemistry of comb...
Collaborative Research: Origins and drivers of extinction of Caribbean avifauna
Current vertebrate diversity has been dramatically shaped by an ongoing mass extinction event that began after the last ice age ended, approximately 18,000 years ago. The timing of...
Collaborative Research: PIPP Workshop: Pandemic Readiness for Emerging Pathogens(PREP) to be Held February 15-19, 2021.
This award will fund the Pandemic Readiness for Emerging Pathogens (PREP) workshop, planned for February 15-19, 2021. The PREP workshop will foster scientific discussion and cataly...
I-Corps: Machine Learning-Based Diagnosis of Retinal Images with the Aim of Vision Loss Prevention
The broader impact/commercial potential of this I-Corps project is to end preventable blindness by increasing access to early diagnostic testing. Utilizing a novel imaging technolo...
I-Corps: Determining occupant load and location through machine vision with on-device image processing
The broader impact/commercial potential of this I-Corps project is the development of smart cameras with on-board processing. The proposed technology will be used as a part of buil...
EAGER: Filling a Crucial Oceanographic Observation Gap in the Southern Ocean with Animal-borne Instruments
Part 1: Non-technical description Many processes that dominate coastal waters in the Southern Ocean are poorly studied due to the occurrence of sea ice and land glaciers/ice shee...
Spectrophotometric Determinations of Carbonic Acid Dissociation Constants for Estuarine Conditions
Human health and well-being are linked in many ways to the health of our estuaries and coastal ocean waters. Yet surprisingly, we know less about some aspects of these important wa...
Collaborative Research: Interactions between Arctic cyclones, atmospheric rivers, and sea ice in a warming climate
The Arctic is undergoing a dramatic transformation due to global climate change, including major reductions in the areal coverage and thickness of Arctic sea ice. Past research su...
SBIR Phase I: Edible, water soluble corn zein films for shelf life extension and improved safety of perishable foods
The broader impact of this SBIR Phase 1 project will be in significant reduction of food waste. Food waste is a critically important global challenge. Approximately 30% of food pr...
SBIR Phase I:High-resolution Volumetric 3D Printing
The broader impact of this Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) Phase I project will be the development of a new strategy for patterning polymers on the microscale. Specifica...
Collaborative Research: Microscale interactions of foundation species with their fluid environment: biological feedbacks alter ecological interactions of mussels
The project investigates how the metabolic activity of dense aggregations of marine organisms alter the water chemistry of their interstitial spaces, and how these microscale alter...
STTR Phase I: Protease-based purification of recombinant human matrix metalloproteases
The broader impact of this Small Business Technology Transfer (STTR) Phase I project is an enabling technology to improve research into many diseases. This STTR project will devel...
SBIR Phase I: Predictive Tools for Characterizing Carbon Sequestration in Mined Materials
The broader impact of this Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) Phase I project provides tools to identify and realize opportunities to use mine waste rock in carbon sequestra...
Collaborative Research: Quantifying Seasonal and Interannual Changes in Shelf-Derived Material Inputs to the Arctic Ocean: The Arctic Radium Isotope Observing Network (ARION)
Within the Arctic Circle, rapidly rising air and sea temperatures have resulted in the loss of sea ice, increased river discharge, coastal erosion, and permafrost thaw. Many of the...
Pore-scale machine-learning modeling of flow and transport properties of carbonate rocks
Carbonate rocks constitute one of the most common type of groundwater and fossil fuel reservoirs in the USA. Design of optimum strategies for groundwater and fossil fuel resources...

The Exchange for Local Observations and Knowledge of the Arctic (ELOKA) partners with Indigenous organizations and researchers to facilitate the collection, preservation, exchange,...
Virtual Sequential Labs for Selection of the Next OOI Pioneer Array Location
The Ocean Observatories Initiative (OOI) Coastal Pioneer Array was commissioned in 2016 and is located off of the coast of New England. It was developed as a relocatable asset, dep...
Doctoral Dissertation Research: Considering the effects of disfluent speech on children's sentence processing capabilities and language development
Many verbs can occur in different sentence structures. For example, some ditransitive verbs — verbs that have both a direct and an indirect object, like "give" — are flexible as to...
NSFGEO-NERC: Large-Scale Atmospheric Circulation Response to Oyashio Extension Frontal Variability
Winter over the North Pacific features an endless parade of frontal storms, forming near Japan and building as they cross the ocean to reach North America. Model simulations can p...
