This grant, offered by the Earth Science Department, is dedicated to advancing understanding of the North American continent’s 4-dimensional structure and dynamics through the EarthScope program. EarthScope serves as a comprehensive framework for integrated research across various Earth science disciplines, including fault properties, earthquake processes, continental deformation, and the composition of the deep Earth. It also fosters Earth science education and the development of cyberinfrastructure for diverse data integration. The program leverages advanced facilities like the Plate Boundary Observatory, San Andreas Fault Observatory at Depth, and USArray to expand observational capabilities. This solicitation invites proposals for scientific research and supportive activities aligned with EarthScope’s overarching scientific and educational objectives.

Description: | EarthScope is an Earth science program to explore the 4-dimensional structure of the North American continent. The EarthScope Program provides a framework for broad, integrated studies across the Earth sciences, including research on fault properties and the earthquake process, strain transfer, magmatic and hydrous fluids in the crust and mantle, plate boundary processes, large-scale continental deformation, continental structure and evolution, and composition and structure of the deep-Earth. In addition, EarthScope offers a centralized forum for Earth science education at all levels and an excellent opportunity to develop cyberinfrastructure to integrate, distribute, and analyze diverse data sets.The EarthScope facilities, consisting of the Plate Boundary Observatory (PBO), the San Andreas Fault Observatory at Depth (SAFOD), and the USArray, are a multi-purpose array of instruments and observatories that greatly expands the observational capabilities of the Earth Sciences and permits us to advance our understanding of the structure, evolution and dynamics of the North American continent.This Solicitation calls for single or collaborative proposals to conduct scientific research associated with the EarthScope Facility and support activities that further the scientific and educational goals of EarthScope. |
