Zachary Bradshaw
Mathematics & Statistics
Analyze the dynamic stability of multi-celled vortex solutions of the Navier-Stokes equations, such as tornado-like models with an updraft surrounding a central downdraft.
Xuan Zhuang
Genetics·Early-career
Identify precursor sequences and mechanisms of gene birth for type I antifreeze proteins by comparing genomes of AFPI-bearing fishes with close relatives that lack these ice-binding genes.
Francois Lanoe
Social Science
Reconstruct subsistence economies at Broken Mammoth over time, including diet breadth and seasonal land use, through zooarchaeological analysis of the site's large animal bone collection.
Carla Klehm
Earth & Environmental Science
Build a geospatial database for the Qanirtuuq river that combines remote sensing and modeling data with local residents' observations of river change.
Celina Suarez
Earth & Environmental Science
Establish a refined chronology of terrestrial ecosystem change across the Cretaceous Thermal Maximum, using carbon-isotope chemostratigraphy and radioisotopic dating of zircon, eggshell and pedogenic (soil-formed) carbonates.
