Tectonics Program: funding research on deformation of Earth’s continental lithosphere
The Tectonics Program funds research—field, lab, computational, and theoretical—to understand how and why Earth’s continental lithosphere deforms. Projects can study processes at different depths and timescales, from active tectonics over decades to longer-term evolution, across micro- to plate-scale regions like orogenic belts. The focus is on deformation mechanisms and their tectonic drivers…
The Tectonics Program supports a broad range of field, laboratory, computational, and theoretical investigations aimed at understanding the deformation of the terrestrial continental lithosphere (i.e. above the lithosphere-asthenosphere boundary). The Program focuses on deformation processes and…
