NSF Geosciences federal funding in Rhode Island
Geosciences (CFDA 47.050) shows $64,665,694 in USAspending.gov obligations coded to Rhode Island, on 84 awards. Eighty-four research rows against a $64.7 million-class NSF book is a grant file, not 84 labs. This page is a catalog-program × state join, not a lab, cruise, or field-site census and not an outlay conversion. USAspending.gov is the source table.
Key figures
- CFDA 47.050 × Rhode Island records $64,665,694 in USAspending obligations.
- 84 awards sit under that sum; the mean is about $769,829.69 per record, not a typical unit.
- Matching Geosciences to Rhode Island is not causation and not a lab, cruise, or field-site census.
- Cite obligations from USAspending.gov, not outlays. FEC donations do not fund this cell.
84 geosciences awards meeting Rhode Island in the file
Rhode Island × CFDA 47.050 is the object this page measures. Geosciences shows $64,665,694 in USAspending.gov obligations on 84 awards coded to the state. It is not NSF Biological Sciences or MPS listings, and it is not a lab, cruise, or field-site census.
Award count is a row count of assistance awards, including possible continuations and modifications. Mean obligation about $769,829.69 is $64,665,694 ÷ 84, not a typical NSF grant and not a typical field season. NSF geosciences research awards and cooperative agreements can dominate the dollars.
Providence did not cause the total by appearing as RI. Matching 47.050 to Rhode Island is not a finding about oceanographic capacity. FEC donations do not fund this cell. Open Geosciences in Rhode Island rather than treating this narrative as a recipient directory.
What CFDA 47.050 reports without a cruise roster
USAspending stores the assistance listing as GEOSCIENCES. SpendingVault republishes the Rhode Island intersection. No national NSF Geosciences total is in the packet, so none is invented. CFDA 47.050 is the unfiltered hub.
Separate measurement systems include NSF Geosciences award abstracts and ocean-or-earth-science institute reports. Combining those files with 84 rows would manufacture a homemade per-unit figure. Oceanography-cruise folklore is not a packet column.
Rhode Island's statewide stack besides Geosciences
The statewide parent is Rhode Island federal spending. The program directory is Rhode Island programs. Both are wider than $64,665,694. NSF Biological Sciences or MPS listings appear as other joins.
Geography RI is a place-of-performance code. Awards billed through Providence can share the tag. Narragansett did not receive $64,665,694 as a named metro appropriation. Neighbors (Massachusetts or Connecticut) are other pages.
NSF obligations are not field seasons already sailed
Commitments and payments are different series. $64,665,694 is the commitment rollup on tagged awards. This page will not convert it into cash already spent on NSF Geosciences.
Narragansett-versus-Kingston stories are not a campus split. This packet has no PI list. No fiscal-year series is published on this packet, so $64,665,694 will not be annualized.
How to cite the 47.050–Rhode Island pair
Cite USAspending.gov: Geosciences (CFDA 47.050) in Rhode Island, $64,665,694, 84 awards, obligations only. All spending ties is the shelf for other CFDA × state pairs.
The live overlay Geosciences in Rhode Island can refresh after this snapshot. Parent hubs are context, not addends. Keep both sides of the join in the same sentence.
What 84 Rhode Island geosciences rows will not prove
This page exists because two tables meet. It does not exist to argue that Rhode Island won or lost federal money. Correlation is not causation. 84 is not a lab, cruise, or field-site census.
Narragansett-versus-Kingston stories are not a campus split. This packet has no PI list. Keep Geosciences, Rhode Island, $64,665,694, and 84 awards together in every reuse. Place of performance as RI locates the tagged awards; it does not prove every dollar stayed inside Rhode Island after obligation. Providence folklore is not a split of the 84 rows, and Narragansett is not a named recipient of $64,665,694.
USAspending obligations can be positive new awards or net of downward modifications; $64,665,694 is the net total supplied in the facts. Treat 84 as a record count in an aggregate, not as 84 finished program years. Award modifications can sit beside base records in the same row count. The mean of about $769,829.69 per record will mislead anyone who treats it as a typical NSF grant and not a typical field season.
Names, unit counts, and per-unit amounts are omitted because they are not in the facts. Read the overlay rows as stored; this page will not invent a Rhode Island budget share. Inspect named lines on Geosciences in Rhode Island rather than inferring a lab, cruise, or field-site census from 84.
A reader who treats $64,665,694 as Rhode Island's full federal obligation book has left the CFDA-by-state definition. NSF Biological Sciences or MPS listings and every other catalog line that also hits Rhode Island remain outside this cell. Do not add those parents into $64,665,694.
Questions
- How much NSF Geosciences funding is obligated in Rhode Island?
- USAspending.gov records $64,665,694 in CFDA 47.050 obligations across 84 awards coded to Rhode Island. That is a program × state join, not an outlay and not Rhode Island's full federal total. Keep both the program name and Rhode Island in any citation.
- Do 84 awards mean 84 Rhode Island geology labs?
- Award count is a row count. $64,665,694 ÷ 84 is about $769,829.69 per record as a mean, not a typical NSF grant and not a typical field season. NSF geosciences research awards and cooperative agreements can dominate dollars. This packet does not list recipients. See Geosciences in Rhode Island for the stored table.
- Is this Rhode Island's entire federal science book?
- No. The $64,665,694 and 84 awards are USAspending.gov obligation records for CFDA 47.050 with a Rhode Island geography tag. NSF Biological Sciences, MPS, and other NSF directorate listings use different CFDAs. Those dollars sit outside this join. Mixing those files with this join would invent a figure the packet does not support.
- Where is the live Rhode Island × 47.050 overlay?
- Geosciences in Rhode Island is the overlay. See Rhode Island federal spending, Rhode Island programs, CFDA 47.050, and All spending ties. Later bulk files override this snapshot. Keep the obligation label on $64,665,694. Do not invent a fiscal year.
