Project Grant 80NSSC21K1202

The National Science Foundation (NSF) Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (CFDA #47.075) program awarded Northwestern University a $100,000 Project Grant to plan for the creation of an interdisciplinary center that would study the social and behavioral aspects of climate change. The planning will involve meetings of experts from disciplines including psychology, sociology, and environmental science to explore how people receive, process, and respond to information about climate change....

This two-year project grant from the National Science Foundation's Office of Multidisciplinary Activities, under the Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences program (CFDA 47.075), provides $200,000 to the University of California, Berkeley to study explanations for ambitious climate policy. The research will compare updated national climate targets and COVID-19 economic recovery packages across several countries to analyze the political and economic drivers of differences in climate...

The National Science Foundation Office of International Science and Engineering awarded a $200,000 Project Grant to the University of Chicago to develop responsible artificial intelligence systems to support effective climate change policymaking through 2026. Funded under the CFDA 47.079 International Science and Engineering program, this collaborative research between U.S. and Australian researchers aims to bridge information gaps between publicly available climate change data and actionable...

This five-year, $224,915 project grant from the National Science Foundation Office of Integrative Activities' Integrative Activities program (CFDA 47.083) will fund research exploring combined climate intervention strategies for stakeholder use. A team of experts from climate science, engineering, behavioral science and ecology at Louisiana State University will advance the state of science on climate intervention scenarios that keep warming within 1.5 degrees Celsius. The researchers will...

This five-year, $622,775 project grant from the National Science Foundation's Integrative Activities program (CFDA 47.083) supports research by the University Corporation for Atmospheric Research's National Center for Atmospheric Research to generate actionable climate intervention scenarios. The research team will advance the scientific understanding of portfolio approaches combining mitigation, carbon dioxide removal, and solar radiation management strategies to limit global warming to 1.5...

This $500,000 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) will establish the "ONE-EARTH ONE-HEALTH: AN ECOSYSTEM FOR HUMAN-CENTERED CLIMATE SOLUTIONS" Research Coordination Network. The network aims to advance a new "geohealth" science that studies the interconnections between Earth processes and human health, with the goal of developing human-centered, implementable solutions to mitigate the impacts of climate change on public...

This Cooperative Agreement award from the National Science Foundation (NSF) under the Technology, Innovation, and Partnerships (TIP) program (CFDA 47.084) provides $1,498,564 to Temple University to develop a large, multimodal knowledge graph that captures the salient aspects of climate modeling, including data, models, and analytical tasks. The 3-year project aims to create automated methods for inferring relationships between research papers, datasets, climate models, and tools, and...

The National Science Foundation (NSF) awarded Arizona State University (ASU) a $277,490 Project Grant under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) to support U.S. researchers participating in a multinational Belmont Forum initiative on global environmental change. The project, titled "Coastal Tales, Telling Adaptations: Living Environmental Stories for Coastal Resilience," focuses on integrating local and traditional knowledge, social science, and natural science to determine how past...

The National Science Foundation (NSF), through its Office of International Science and Engineering (OISE) under CFDA Number 47.079, has awarded a $294,103 Project Grant to the University of New Hampshire (UNH) for the "Climate Collaboratorium: Co-Creation of Decision Labs for Exploring Climate Change Adaptation and Mitigation." This 3-year project, which commenced on June 1, 2024, addresses risks to water security in vulnerable communities across the U.S., Canada, Germany, and the U.K....

This federal Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (CFDA 47.075) program provides $351,638 to Indiana University over 3 years from October 1, 2024 to February 28, 2027. The research project aims to explore how integrating spiritual, moral, and ethical considerations into science communication can improve decision-making and public action on climate science. The work consists of three studies: (1) promoting self-reflection to...
