New funding for GSECARS
GSECARS November 2002
Funding for "GeoSoilEnviroCARS, a Natural Resource for Earth, Planetary and Environmental Science Research at the Advanced Photon Source” has been received from the Earth Sciences Instrumentation and Facilities program at the National Science Foundation as the result of a competitive proposal submitted in January 2002.

The grant for $6.6M is for a four-year period beginning October 2002 which marks the beginning of the ninth year of NSF support for GSECARS.

GSECARS is also among the most active sectors at the APS, with over 420 beamtime proposals and over 320 users since we began operations in 1997.
