The award period is from May 15, 2021 to April 30, 2023. Sub-awards totaling $2,374,386 were provided to nine research institutions, including the University of Virginia, University of Delaware, Virginia Institute of Marine Science, University of Colorado, University of California Santa Cruz, Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution, to conduct collaborative research on the ecological response and resilience to press-pulse disturbances and the recent decadal reversal in sea ice trends in the region.
