Collaborative Research: Modeling the Origin and Evolution of Hawaiian Plants
Where we find species living today reflects not only how and when their direct ancestors evolved, but also where they evolved. The inseparable relationship between geological and e...
I-Corps: Automated pavement condition survey system to improve cost-effectiveness
The broader impact/commercial potential of this I-Corps project is the development of a more cost-effective, automated, pavement condition data collection system. In a pavement man...
Collaborative Research: Quantifying Human Forcing of Legacy Sediment and Metal Contamination Dynamics on the Yunnan Plateau of Southwestern China
Globally, metal contamination from past human activities hinders human management of environmental systems, particularly soils (agriculture) and aquatic systems (drinking water)....
SCC-CIVIC-PG Track B: Rural Resiliency Hubs: A Planning Approach to Addressing the Resiliency Divide
Public libraries provide rural citizens with critical information, services, and support to withstand adversity. Numerous local, state, and federal agencies use public libraries as...
Collaborative Research: International Coercion, Debt Relief, and Land Transactions
National Science Foundation Abstract Proposal: 2048406/2048416 PI Name: Shea, Patrick/Bunte, Jonas Proposal ID: 2048406/2048416...
NSFDEB-NERC: Collaborative Research: Wildlife corridors: do they work and who benefits?
In recent years, governments have begun to connect parks and other large natural areas by conserving wildlife corridors – swaths of semi-natural land intended to allow the free flo...
Collaborative: EAGER: Demonstration that Thin Film Phase Transformations Can Be Monitored at High-Temperature and High-Pressure in a Diamond Anvil Cell
Phase transitions and the associated volume changes strongly influence materials’ properties. When occurring in minerals in subduction zones - where one tectonic plate dives undern...
I-Corps: AI-enabled automation intelligence software that can detect micro-anomalies in machine and robotic operations
The broader impact/commercial potential of this I-Corps projects is the development of an Artificial Intelligence (AI)-enabled automation software that detects micro-anomalies in m...
SCC-CIVIC-PG Track B: Helping Rural Counties to Enhance Flooding and Coastal Disaster Resilience and Adaptation
In the United States, flooding is a leading cause of natural disasters, with congressional budget office estimates of $54 billion in loss each year. Although both urban and rural a...
BBSRC-NSF/BIO: Collaborative Research: Focusing a quantitative lens on Synthetic Phototrophic Communities
Microbial communities populate nearly all environments on our planet. These environments include the human gut, the surface of corals in the oceans, and plant roots in the soil. I...
Collaborative Research: IODP-enabled Insights into Fungi and Their Metabolic Interactions with Other Microorganisms in Deep Subsurface Hydrothermal Sediments
The marine subsurface is one of the least explored habitats on Earth. International Ocean Discovery Program (IODP) Expedition 385 drilled into the seafloor in Guaymas Basin, Mexico...
Open-Source Renewables: Coupling Resilience to Natural Disasters with Environmental Justice
In a region where earthquakes, heat waves, wildfires and an increasingly unreliable grid are an inescapable reality, resilience hubs bring community-wide benefit. Through the partn...
Collaborative: EAGER: Demonstration that Thin Film Phase Transformations Can Be Monitored at High-Temperature and High-Pressure in a Diamond Anvil Cell
Phase transitions and the associated volume changes strongly influence materials’ properties. When occurring in minerals in subduction zones - where one tectonic plate dives undern...
SCC-CIVIC-PG Track A: Community Hub for Smart Mobility
Due to issues of housing affordability, Americans often must live far from their jobs. This spatial mismatch causes commuter traffic congestion resulting in an annual $29 billion l...
Compact Objects and Gravitational Radiation
September 14, 2015 saw the dawn of gravitational wave astronomy with the detection of gravitational waves from the merger of a binary black hole. Since then, three other detections...
Understanding the protein composition and dynamics of the nuclear envelope in plants
The nuclear envelope (NE) isolates and organizes the genome. It selectively accumulates proteins that carry out vital cellular functions and represents the hallmark of eukaryotic c...
I-Corps: Low-cost photothermal nanosensors for quantitative biomarker detection using a thermometer
The broader impact/commercial potential of this I-Corps project is the development of new, low-cost, portable biomarker detection methods in response to the growing market of biomo...
Doctoral Dissertation: Does Speaking Improve Comprehension and Processing of a Foreign Language? A Computer-Assisted Language Learning and ERP Study
Adult language learners, including college students, find learning new languages to be difficult, yet many are remarkably successful. While previous work has focused on cognitive a...
Collaborative Research: CIBR: Leaping the Specimen Digitization Gap: Connecting Novel Tools, Machine Learning and Public Participation to Label Digitization Efforts
National efforts to digitize natural history collections have transformed previously siloed, unstandardized resources into a networked, openly available information nexus usable to...
SCC-CIVIC-PG Track A:CaReDeX: Enabling Disaster Resilience in Aging Communities via a Secure Data Exchange
Disasters over the years have shown that a disproportionate number of older adults suffer fatalities and injuries during extreme events. A large number of older adults live in age-...
