- The University of Hawaii at Manoa will use a $2.5 million project grant from the National Science Foundation to understand how microbes govern food web architecture and efficiency in a model watershed. The grant was awarded on January 15, 2022 under the Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) and will support research through December 31, 2026. As part of its basic research mission, the Biological Sciences program aims to increase scientific knowledge of major problems confronting the...
The University of Hawaii at Manoa will test the marine biodiversity gradient of sponges in the tropical Pacific Ocean under a two-year, $959,716 National Science Foundation Division of Ocean Sciences Project Grant award. The award period is from January 1, 2022 through December 31, 2024. As part of the NSF's Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050), which supports basic research to increase understanding of the integrated Earth system, the university will examine whether the well-known decline in marine species diversity with increasing distance from the equator holds true for sponges. The grant will fund University of Hawaii researchers to strengthen knowledge of sponge biodiversity patterns across the gradient and enhance understanding of the factors influencing their distribution.
