- The University of California, Santa Barbara received a $382,468 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) to conduct collaborative research on the hydrologic expression of the El Nino/Southern Oscillation (ENSO) in the tropical Pacific Ocean. The researchers will create a detailed map or "isoscape" showing how oxygen isotope values in seawater and rainfall vary across the modern tropical Pacific during ENSO events, and couple this with...
- This three-year Project Grant from the National Science Foundation Division of Ocean Sciences provides $366,697 to the University of California Santa Cruz to conduct research characterizing the composition, scavenging efficiency and bioavailability of size fractionated particles under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050). The Geosciences program aims to strengthen the national scientific enterprise through expanding fundamental knowledge and understanding of the integrated Earth system by...
- The University of California, Santa Barbara received a $296,508 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation Division of Ocean Sciences on December 1, 2021. The grant supports research under the NSF's Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) to study alkane-based metabolic coupling between phytoplankton and marine Group II Euryarchaeota. This two-year project will enhance understanding of the integrated Earth system by investigating the basic biochemical interactions between these...
- The University of California Santa Cruz will receive $398,673 in funding from the National Science Foundation Division of Ocean Sciences through July 2024 to conduct collaborative research that will illuminate the Cenozoic alkenone pCO2 record. This Project Grant was awarded on August 1, 2021 under the NSF's Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050), which supports basic research to expand understanding of the integrated Earth system through atmospheric, earth, and ocean sciences. UC Santa Cruz, doing...
- The National Science Foundation (NSF) Division of Polar Programs awarded a $899,985 Project Grant to the University of California, Santa Barbara (UCSB) with a period of performance from September 1, 2023 to August 31, 2026. The purpose of this grant is to conduct collaborative research on the roles of seasonality, silicification, and alteration in nitrogen and silicon isotope paleo-proxy variability, specifically examining the chemistry of fossil diatoms to understand past changes in surface...
- The National Science Foundation Division of Ocean Sciences awarded a $260,366 Project Grant to the University of Washington's Office of Sponsored Programs to support collaborative research under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050). The research aims to conduct shipboard measurements of dissolved aluminum, iron, and manganese to trace inputs to the South Pacific Gyre and Southern Ocean from September 2021 through August 2024. The Geosciences program seeks to expand fundamental knowledge of...
The National Science Foundation Division of Ocean Sciences awarded a $681,045 Project Grant to the University of California, Santa Barbara under the Geosciences federal grant program (CFDA 47.050) to evaluate Southern Ocean control of global marine silicon isotope distribution from June 1, 2021 to May 31, 2024. Through this award, UC Santa Barbara will conduct basic research to strengthen understanding of integrated Earth system processes and expand fundamental knowledge of factors influencing the global distribution of silicon isotopes in oceans. As the prime awardee, UC Santa Barbara will leverage its expertise in atmospheric, earth and ocean sciences to carry out studies that provide insight into how Southern Ocean dynamics impact the cycling and transport of silicon globally. Results from this NSF-funded research aim to increase scientific knowledge of marine biogeochemical cycles and their role in Earth's climate system.
