This National Science Foundation (NSF) Project Grant, awarded under the Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074), provides $240,000 to support a postdoctoral research fellowship in biology focused on investigating pollination loss in Hawaiian forests. The fellow will closely examine interactions between nectarivorous (nectar-feeding) birds and flowering plants, using film and 3D scans, to predict the impacts of bird pollinator loss on Hawaiian plants. The research also aims to broaden...
This National Science Foundation Project Grant award of $240,000 provides funding from September 1, 2023 through August 31, 2026 to support research examining the genetic, physiological, and environmental drivers of plant-pollinator niche dynamics across scales of biological organization. The award is made under the Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) to promote progress in the biological sciences and strengthen the scientific enterprise through increased knowledge and understanding of...
This $360,000 federal Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) supports research on the effects of atmospheric pollutants on plant-pollinator interactions and the processing of floral scents. The project will use the nocturnal moth (Manduca sexta) and diurnal honeybee (Apis mellifera) as model pollinators to examine how daytime (ozone, hydroxyl radicals) and nighttime (nitrate radicals) pollutants degrade diverse floral scents,...
This $1,791,864 federal Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) will support research to understand how landscape context and configuration interact with on-farm practices to shape pollinator supply, and how social, institutional, and environmental factors influence farmers' ability and interest in collective action to address pollinator declines. The research will be conducted by Cornell University, with sub-awards to the Centre for...
The National Science Foundation awarded a $138,000 Project Grant to support research under the Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) from August 1, 2021 to July 31, 2023. The grant funds postdoctoral research at Utah State University in Logan, Utah to study the evolution of extended floral phenotypes. The Biological Sciences program aims to advance the field and strengthen the national scientific enterprise through basic research on major problems. This award will further those goals by...
The National Science Foundation awarded a two-year, $138,000 Project Grant to study how arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi impacts pollination and plant fitness in anthropogenically disturbed environments. The grant, provided under the Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074), will fund research from August 2021 to July 2023 exploring how the symbiotic relationship between plants and fungi is impacted by human disturbances and influences plant reproduction. The Biological Sciences program aims to...
This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation (NSF) under the Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) provides $371,044 in funding to support research on the evolutionary ecology of leafflower plants and moths. The award will fund four master's students at the University of Texas Permian Basin (UTPB) to study the genetics, microbiology, and biology of leafflower moths that have transitioned from mutualistic to parasitic relationships with their host plants. The project will...
This federal Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation (NSF) Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) provides $652,022 to the University of Hawaii to conduct collaborative research on biodiversity dynamics in the Hawaiian Islands. The project integrates rapid assessment technologies, including satellite, helicopter, drone, and ground-based monitoring, with arthropod metabarcoding to forecast changes in insect and spider populations. The goal is to infer processes shaping...
This National Science Foundation (NSF) Biological Sciences program project grant, with a total award of $193,780, supports collaborative research to understand how fluctuations in pollinator abundance affect the population dynamics of plant species. The awardee, The Corporation of the Rocky Mountain Biological Laboratory At Gothic, will conduct a long-term field experiment manipulating pollination environments for two perennial plant species. The research aims to leverage 9-11 years of...
This $167,390 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation (NSF) Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) supports a collaborative research effort to examine biodiversity dynamics in the Hawaiian Islands. The key goals are to: Integrate rapid assessment technologies at the landscape and island level to forecast changes in insect and spider populations using DNA-based metabarcoding techniques. Measure the velocity and extent of non-native plant invasions using satellite, aerial,...
