Summary: Supports graduate student research on the tectonic and magmatic evolution of Alaska, with possible funding for other geologic studies.
The Bruce L. "Biff" Reed Scholarship is a named award within the Geological Society of America (GSA) Graduate Student Research Grant Program. It is designed to support graduate students conducting research primarily on the tectonic and magmatic evolution of Alaska, though proposals on other geologic research topics may also be considered. The scholarship aims to advance graduate-level work in these specialized areas of geology, contributing to the scientific understanding of Alaska's geological processes and broader geoscience research.
