The Regents of the University of California, doing business as the University of California, Berkeley, received a $1,397,443 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation Division of Ocean Sciences on August 15, 2021 to complete the project by July 31, 2023.
The grant funds the development and calibration of autonomous ocean carbon observers to strengthen understanding of the integrated Earth system through basic research in atmospheric, earth, and ocean sciences, as outlined in the National Science Foundation's Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050). Specifically, the University of California, Berkeley will design, build, and test autonomous sensor platforms to remotely monitor ocean carbon levels over extended periods, advancing knowledge of carbon cycling processes in the ocean and climate system. The parent organization, the California State Controller's Office, will oversee administration and disbursement of grant funds to the University of California, Berkeley as the primary sub-awardee.
