As of October 1, 2010, the NSF-funded GeoPRISMS Program is live, succeeding the highly successful MARGINS Program. The first GeoPRISMS Office, chaired by Julia Morgan, is housed at Rice University and available to answer any questions you may have about the new program, funding opportunities, and upcoming workshops.
The MARGINS Website still exists
The MARGINS website will continue to exist, providing an archival record of more than 10 years of great science, education, and outreach activities.
The new GeoPRISMS website will be updated incrementally over the next months to years, serving as a community resource about the GeoPRISMS Program, research, funding, education and outreach, and so much more. Check back often for updates.
