The University of Oregon was awarded a $349,438 Project Grant from the National Science Foundation Division of Ocean Sciences. The grant falls under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050), which aims to expand fundamental knowledge of the integrated Earth system through basic research in atmospheric, earth, and ocean sciences. The three-year award, issued on October 1, 2021 and set to conclude on September 30, 2024, will support collaborative research examining plankton size spectra and trophic links in a dynamic ocean. The University of Oregon, located in Eugene, Oregon, will leverage the funding to deliver research analyzing the relationships between plankton community composition, size structure, and the transfer of energy and nutrients in marine ecosystems. Insights from this work have the potential to advance understanding of ocean biogeochemistry and how plankton populations respond to environmental fluctuations.
