- The National Science Foundation awarded a $104,601 Project Grant under its Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) to The Research Foundation for the State University of New York (SUNY) at the Geneseo campus. The grant, effective November 1, 2024 through October 31, 2027, supports collaborative research to develop an integrated understanding of the Late Devonian Earth system, with a focus on ocean-climate-biosphere interactions during this critical period in Earth's history. Key objectives include: 1)...
- This $143,870 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) supports a collaborative research project led by Lycoming College to investigate late Devonian paleobiology in the Appalachian Basin. The researchers will collect and analyze rock and fossil samples from surface and subsurface locations to examine the link between environmental extremes and vertebrate habitats during the late Devonian period, approximately 360 million years ago. This...
- This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) provides $271,558.00 to Rowan University to conduct collaborative research on the effects of early icehouse climate extremes on vertebrate paleobiology during the Late Devonian period, approximately 360 million years ago. The key products and services to be delivered under this 3-year award, which runs from September 1, 2025 to August 31, 2028, include: Collecting and analyzing rock and fossil...
- This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) will fund collaborative research to develop an integrated framework for understanding the Late Devonian mass extinctions and associated changes in ocean chemistry and climate. The $231,421 award to Texas A&M University aims to: Establish a new geologic framework linking Late Devonian mass extinctions to the formation of epeiric black shale deposits across North and South America using...
- The National Science Foundation awarded a $429,298 Project Grant under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) to George Mason University to conduct collaborative research on the Devonian period. The funded work seeks to understand the timing, causes, and consequences of Devonian mass extinctions, and how they can be identified in rocks across North America, Bolivia, and Western Australia. This integrated study will provide a new framework for understanding ocean oxygen loss and its impact on...
- The Trustees of Princeton University were awarded a $228,080 Project Grant from the National Science Foundation Division of Earth Sciences. The grant falls under the NSF's Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050), which supports basic research in the atmospheric, earth, and ocean sciences to strengthen the national scientific enterprise. Specifically, the September 1, 2021 award will fund a collaborative research project through August 31, 2026 to test the hypothesis that reduction of aerobic habitat...
- The National Science Foundation (NSF) Division of Ocean Sciences awarded a $323,234 Project Grant to Claremont McKenna College under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) for the period of January 1, 2024 to December 31, 2026. The project, titled "MCA PILOT PUI: PROXY-MODEL COMPARISON USING CARBON ISOTOPES FROM ANNUALLY BANDED MARINE CALCIFIERS AND OCEAN CIRCULATION INVERSE MODELS TO EVALUATE COASTAL CARBON CYCLE PROCESSES," will use data from proxy archives to perform a model-proxy...
- This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) supports fundamental research to expand scientific understanding of the integrated Earth system through investigations in the atmospheric, earth, and ocean sciences. The $290,552 award will recover, calibrate, and analyze oxygen data from an array of moorings in the Labrador and Irminger Seas in the North Atlantic Ocean. This will help characterize oxygen and carbon dioxide ventilation pathways into...
- Arizona State University was awarded a $231,457 project grant from the National Science Foundation Division of Earth Sciences. The grant falls under the NSF's Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050), which supports basic research to strengthen understanding of the integrated Earth system. Specifically, the grant will fund collaborative research testing the hypothesis that reduction of aerobic habitat was a common kill mechanism for major mass extinction events. Over the five-year period from September...
- This three-year Project Grant from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) provides $586,098 to Texas A&M University to conduct research reconstructing ancient ocean temperatures during the Devonian-Mississippian climate transition. The university will test whether tropical ocean temperatures reached extremely high levels of 95-104 degrees Fahrenheit during the time of early animals. It will examine the role of rapid cooling in triggering biotic crises and explore...
This three-year Project Grant from the National Science Foundation Division of Earth Sciences provides $459,988 to Appalachian State University to conduct research titled "COLLABORATIVE RESEARCH: RUI: CSI DEVONIAN - TESTING LATE DEVONIAN OCEAN ANOXIA PROXIES ACROSS DIFFERENT PALEOENVIRONMENTS." The funding supports work under the NSF's Geosciences program (CFDA #47.050), which aims to strengthen understanding of the integrated Earth system through basic research in atmospheric, earth, and ocean sciences. Specifically, the university will test proxies for late Devonian ocean anoxia across various paleoenvironments to further knowledge of this period. The grant performance period spans from November 1, 2021 to October 31, 2024 and will be conducted at Appalachian State University's campus in Boone, North Carolina.
