The USGS is offering this grant to enhance and modernize volcano monitoring capabilities across the U.S. This grant is for the purpose of upgrading equipment, improving data centers, and boosting processing capabilities vital for reporting volcanic activity. Key objectives include replacing aging seismometers, geodetic instruments, and telemetry at hazardous volcanoes, alongside augmenting existing networks. Funding will also support essential activities like field observations, geophysical data analysis, geologic mapping, and GIS-based hazard assessments. Computer-based research and development in data visualization and archiving are also covered. Utilizing funds from the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA), this initiative further aims to create and preserve jobs. The closing date for applications is September 14, 2009.
