- Federal Project Grant Award Summary The National Science Foundation's Division of Ocean Sciences awarded $434,023 to the Marine Environmental Sciences Consortium (doing business as Dauphin Island Sea Lab) under the Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) on January 15, 2026, for collaborative research investigating viral infections on sulfate-reducing microbial communities. The project delivers fundamental scientific research examining virus-microbe interactions and their ecological significance in...
- This $1.6 million project grant from the National Science Foundation's Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) supports research at East Carolina University from September 2022 through August 2027. The university will examine how social, environmental, and governance factors shape the effectiveness of ecosystem-based adaptation approaches to tropical cyclones in mangrove and coral reef coastal communities in Fiji and Puerto Rico. Key products and services include analysis of remote sensing...
- This federal Project Grant award, valued at $1,153,105.00 and running from May 1, 2025 to April 30, 2028, was provided by the National Science Foundation's Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) to the University of Maryland Center for Environmental Science (UMCES). The grant funds a collaborative research project investigating the impacts of virovory, or the grazing of viruses, on the cycling of organic matter and energy flow within temperate marine ecosystems. The research aims to provide a...
The National Science Foundation Division of Environmental Biology awarded a $489,960 Project Grant under the Biological Sciences federal grant program (CFDA 47.074) to the Virginia Institute of Marine Science on January 15, 2021 for the project "RCN-HERS: RESEARCH COORDINATION NETWORK FOR HURRICANE ECOSYSTEM RESPONSE SYNTHESIS." The grant supports the Virginia Institute of Marine Science to coordinate a nationwide collaboration synthesizing human-environmental responses to hurricanes through December 31, 2024. Key products and services include participation in annual kick-off, data synthesis workshops, and wrap-up meetings by the Virginia Institute of Marine Science and sub-awardees. Sub-awards were provided to the University of Louisiana at Lafayette, Florida International University, and the University of New Hampshire to participate in off-site workshops regarding the synthesis of hurricane effects on natural and human-dominated environments. The grant aims to advance understanding of major problems confronting the nation through increased scientific knowledge and understanding of biological sciences as described in the Biological Sciences federal grant program.
