This Project Grant from the National Science Foundation Division of Polar Programs, under the Polar Programs (CFDA 47.078) federal grant program, provides $2,374,386 to Rutgers, The State University for ecological research related to disturbances and sea ice trends along the West Antarctic Peninsula. 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. The Polar Programs grant program supports basic research in the polar regions that expands fundamental understanding. This award appears to advance those goals through multi-institutional study of climate impacts on Antarctic ecology.
