The GeoPRISMS Program, likely offered by an Earth Sciences department, provides grants to investigate the complex interplay of geodynamics, earth surface processes, and climate at continental margins. This initiative aims to understand how these interactions build and modify margins over diverse timescales, with applications spanning margin evolution, stratigraphic architecture, economic resources, and related geologic hazards. The program is structured into two key initiatives—Subduction Cycles and Deformation, and Rift Initiation and Evolution—supported by five overarching scientific themes, including crustal evolution, fluid interactions, and climate feedbacks. Expected annual funding for this program is approximately $5 million, fostering transformative advances in earth sciences.

| Description: | GeoPRISMS (Geodynamic Processes at Rifting and Subducting Margins) is the successor to the MARGINS Program. GeoPRISMS will investigate the coupled geodynamics, earth surface processes, and climate interactions that build and modify continental margins over a wide range of timescales. These interactions cross the shoreline and have applications to margin evolution and dynamics, construction of stratigraphic architecture, accumulation of economic resources, and associated geologic hazards and environmental management. The GeoPRISMS Program includes two broadly integrated science initiatives (Subduction Cycles and Deformation and Rift Initiation and Evolution), linked by five overarching scientific topics and themes, where transformative advances are likely to occur in the next decade, and where a focused scientific program could be most effective. These overarching science topics include 1) Origin and evolution of continental crust; 2) Fluids, magmas and their interactions; 3) Climate-surface-tectonics feedbacks; 3) Geochemical cycles; and 5) Plate boundary deformation and geodynamics. Each of the initiatives has identified primary sites for focused investigations, as well as thematic studies that will complement primary site studiesFurther information and a science plan for the program detailing each initiative and the associated thematic studies, as well as the overarching themes, can be found on the GeoPRISMS website at http://www.geoprisms.org/. The expected level of funding will be approximately $5 million per year for the foreseeable future. |
