The award supports faculty and undergraduate research to compare the effects of tidal marshes and oyster aquaculture on coastal carbon cycling in the Chesapeake Bay over a 3-year period from September 1, 2023 to August 31, 2026. Specifically, the project aims to measure particulate organic carbon,...
- The University of South Florida was awarded a $537,362 Project Grant from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) for the period of July 1, 2022 to June 30, 2025. The grant aims to advance understanding of global mean sea level variations over the last 130,000 years through geological records preserved in coastal cave deposits from multiple locations. Researchers will reconstruct past sea level history and study sea level high stands during prior warm periods. They...
- This $329,272 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) will fund research to investigate the impacts of sea level rise on stemflow dynamics and associated hydrological and biogeochemical processes in coastal forests along the Atlantic seaboard. The University of Delaware, as the prime awardee, will use field measurements, laboratory analyses, and statistical modeling to understand how changes in stemflow (precipitation channeled down tree...
- This Project Grant from the National Science Foundation (NSF) Office of Integrative Activities provides $348,331 to Morgan State University from August 2021 through July 2024. The funding supports the "EXCELLENCE IN RESEARCH: A DATA-DRIVEN COMPUTATIONAL FRAMEWORK FOR SEISMIC DETECTION, MODELING AND PREDICTION" project under NSF's Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050). The Geosciences program seeks to strengthen understanding of Earth's integrated system through basic research in...
- The National Science Foundation awarded a $795,643 Project Grant to the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution under the Geosciences federal grant program (CFDA 47.050). The award will fund a research project from March 2023 through February 2026 to examine recent changes in sea level and circulation around the Grand Banks region. The project aims to investigate forcing mechanisms behind observed sea level anomalies, examine connectivity of sea level change between continental shelves and open...
- The National Science Foundation (NSF) Geosciences program awarded a $624,127 Project Grant to Florida State University (FSU) to study the impact of ocean dynamics on coastal sea level changes in the eastern Atlantic region. The award, titled "OCEAN DYNAMICS IMPACTING SHELF SEA LEVEL IN EASTERN ATLANTIC (ODISSEA)," will combine direct observations and numerical modeling to quantify the drivers of regional sea level variability and extremes, with a focus on understanding the influence of...
- The University of Maryland Baltimore County was awarded a $283,001 project grant from the National Science Foundation Division of Ocean Sciences. The grant supports research titled "Collaborative Research: Exploiting Geomagnetic Records to Describe Past and Present Ocean Variability" from July 15, 2021 through June 30, 2024. The research aims to strengthen understanding of the integrated Earth system through basic research in ocean sciences, as outlined in the National Science...
- This $177,644 Project Grant awarded by the National Science Foundation's Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) supports research to understand the impacts of sea level rise on stemflow dynamics and associated hydrological and biogeochemical processes in coastal forests. The project, led by George Washington University, will investigate the role of stemflow in the cycling of water and solutes in coastal forests experiencing stress from saltwater intrusion and the development of "ghost...
- This National Science Foundation (NSF) Project Grant award under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) will provide $201,253 to The Pennsylvania State University ("Penn State") from September 1, 2024 to August 31, 2027 to study the impact of sea level rise on the health of coastal forests through changes in hydrological processes, with a focus on stemflow. The research aims to uncover the role of stemflow, which is the precipitation intercepted by trees and channeled down the trunks to...
- The National Science Foundation (NSF) has awarded a $407,527 Project Grant under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) to Molloy University. The grant, titled "GP-UP: PROJECT RESTORES (RETENTION OF EARTH SCIENCE TRAINEES THROUGH OPPORTUNITIES IN RESTORATION AND ENVIRONMENTAL SCIENCES)", aims to increase the number of students in geosciences, retain historically underrepresented students in STEM fields, build faculty and institutional capacity, and produce highly qualified geoscience...
The National Science Foundation awarded Morgan State University a $549,616 Project Grant under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) for research titled "Identification of Absolute Sea Level Rise and Land Subsidence from Long-Term Tide Gauge Records along Coasts of the Gulf of Mexico and the Chesapeake Bay." The three-year grant, awarded July 1, 2021 and concluding June 30, 2024, will fund research to strengthen understanding of sea level rise and land subsidence through analysis of long-term tide gauge records in vulnerable coastal regions. The Geosciences program supports basic research in atmospheric, earth, and ocean sciences to expand knowledge of the integrated Earth system, consistent with the goals of this grant to enhance understanding of coastal impacts from sea level changes.
