The Division of Earth Sciences (EAR) offers the Continental Dynamics grant to support multidisciplinary research aimed at enhancing our understanding of the processes governing the origin, structure, composition, and dynamic evolution of continents and their fundamental building blocks. This grant is specifically designed for significant, complex projects that necessitate a cooperative or multi-institutional approach, requiring multi-year planning and execution. It targets relatively large-scale endeavors that may not easily align with other existing Earth Sciences programs. The program intends to fund innovative research initiatives that garner broad support from major segments of the Earth Science community, fostering comprehensive advancements in continental dynamics.
