The National Science Foundation awarded a $174,000 Project Grant to North Richmond, California under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) for research titled "Morphological and Ecological Disparity of Spiriferida (Brachiopoda) at Local, Regional, and Global Scales." The two-year award beginning September 1, 2021 will support research examining variations in form and habitat preferences of an ancient marine organism group across different spatial scales to further the program's goals of strengthening understanding of Earth's integrated systems through basic research. Key products will include analyses of Spiriferida fossil collections and related findings adding to knowledge of the group's diversity and ecosystem roles over time and space.
