- This three-year, $586,609 National Science Foundation project grant in the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) supports research at the Scripps Institution of Oceanography, University of California San Diego, to apply novel methods for understanding microbial growth efficiency, function, and energy transfer in the ocean. The research aims to identify ecological conditions and microbial taxa accounting for variance in microbial growth efficiency along light and nutrient gradients. It uses data...
- The National Science Foundation (NSF) Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) awarded a $824,656 project grant to the University of Washington (UW) to investigate the impact of iron availability on heterotrophic bacterial carbon consumption in the mesopelagic ocean's "twilight zone". The 3-year project, starting on May 1, 2025 and ending on April 30, 2028, will utilize a combination of laboratory studies and field experiments to test three related hypotheses on how iron and carbon...
- The University of California Santa Cruz will receive $849,702 through August 2024 from the National Science Foundation Division of Ocean Sciences under the Geosciences federal grant program (CFDA 47.050) to study microbial control of dissolved organic nitrogen in the ocean. Using new amino acid tracers, the University will conduct research on bacterial sources and cycling of refractory dissolved organic nitrogen. This project grant aims to strengthen fundamental understanding of the integrated...
- The University of California, Santa Barbara will research what controls the marine refractory dissolved organic carbon reservoir through a $389,988 project grant from the National Science Foundation Division of Ocean Sciences' Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050). This three-year award beginning July 15, 2021 will fund collaborative research to strengthen understanding of the integrated earth system through basic research of the ocean sciences. Specifically, the university will investigate the...

The grant will support research from July 2021 through June 2024 under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050), which aims to strengthen understanding of the integrated Earth system through basic research. Specifically, the Scripps Institution of Oceanography will conduct collaborative research on the...
- The University of California San Diego's Scripps Institution of Oceanography was awarded a $596,824 Project Grant from the National Science Foundation under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) for the period of July 1, 2021 through June 30, 2024. The grant funds research to enhance understanding of integrated Earth system processes through basic research in atmospheric, earth, and ocean sciences. Specifically, the award supports research to improve knowledge of how ocean surface gravity...
This Project Grant from the National Science Foundation Division of Ocean Sciences provides $456,072 to the University of California San Diego's Scripps Institution of Oceanography for collaborative research titled "Functional Genomic Investigations of Iron and Carbon Cycle Coupling in Select Keystone Marine Bacteria Heterotrophs." The research aims to strengthen fundamental understanding of integrated Earth system processes through the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050). Specifically, the three-year award beginning June 2021 will support investigations into how certain marine bacteria cycle iron and carbon in the ocean. This work aligns with the program's goal of expanding basic knowledge of the Earth system through atmospheric, earth and ocean sciences research. The placement of this research at Scripps Institution of Oceanography in La Jolla, California is well-suited to leverage the institution's expertise in marine sciences.
