EMBRACE-EAR-Growth: Terrestrial geothermal features as a modern analog for Archaean ammonia flux: Research Experience to Enhance Geoscience Retention

US NSF grant open #nsf-2611756

Summary

Reactive nitrogen plays a pivotal role in understanding the origins of life and assessing the potential for life on other planets. Decades of research have been dedicated to unraveling the mysteries surrounding reactive nitrogen's origins and the magnitudes of its sources on early Earth. This research aims to provide evidence of the significance of hydrothermal air-water ammonia flux and characterize the chemical signatures of this process expected to appear in the rock record. Through field and laboratory experiences, the research has a broader aim of enhancing capacity and instigating transf
