The Department of Earth Sciences is offering this grant to foster a deeper, inter-disciplinary understanding of the Earth’s dynamic systems. This grant is for the purpose of catalyzing innovative research into how Earth’s various sub-systems interact and respond to perturbations. It aims to improve data resolution and modeling capabilities, allowing for more realistic simulations of complex processes and better forecasting of disruptive or threshold events. Furthermore, the grant seeks to advance knowledge regarding the resilience of the Earth and its sub-systems, focusing on areas poised for significant scientific breakthroughs. This initiative will drive progress in predicting and understanding planetary changes.

| Description: | The Earth is often characterized as "dynamic" because its systems are variable over space and time, and they can respond rapidly to multiple perturbations. The goals of the Frontiers in Earth-System Dynamics (FESD) program are to: (1) foster an inter-disciplinary and multi-scale understanding of the interplay among and within the various sub-systems of the Earth, (2) catalyze research in areas poised for a major advance, (3) improve data resolution and modeling capabilities to more realistically simulate complex processes and forecast disruptive or threshold events, and (4) improve knowledge of the resilience of the Earth and its subsystems. |
