Florida State University received a two-year, $278,481 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation Division of Ocean Sciences through the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050). The grant will fund research from October 1, 2021 to September 30, 2023 to study the mechanisms of coral resistance to climate change driven stressors in the tropical Eastern Pacific. As part of the Geosciences program's goal to expand understanding of the integrated Earth system through basic research, this...
The National Science Foundation awarded a $142,508 Project Grant to the California Academy of Sciences to support collaborative research integrating phylogenomics with the fossil record of sea urchins. The goal of this three-year award, running from April 2021 through March 2024, is to advance understanding of macroevolutionary patterns in sea urchins through integrating modern genomic techniques with the fossil record of this model clade. This award supports the Biological Sciences program's...
This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) will support research to investigate rapid evolution in reef-building corals during marine heatwave events. The $873,836 award to the University of California, Davis aims to study how the mortality induced by warm water events changes the genetic composition of coral populations. The project will combine field experiments and genomic sequencing to determine which individuals are most likely to...
This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) in the amount of $316,457 will support a postdoctoral research project at Stanford University to investigate the drivers of community stability and resilience in coral reef ecosystems. The research aims to enhance understanding of how spatial variation in environmental conditions and larval connectivity can promote the persistence and recovery of coral communities on tropical islands in the...
The University of California Irvine was awarded a $492,382 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. Specifically, the grant will fund research from December 2021 through November 2024 to predict impacts of coastal species redistribution in a changing climate....
The National Science Foundation (NSF) Division of Emerging Frontiers awarded a $384,490 Project Grant to the University of California, San Diego (UCSD) under the Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074). The grant supports a collaborative research project focused on "Integrating Nanobiotechnologies to Understand the Role of Nitro-Oxidative Stress in the Coral-Dinoflagellate Mutualistic Symbiosis Dynamics." The project aims to investigate the mechanisms behind coral bleaching events,...
This $1,599,937 National Science Foundation project grant under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) supports research at the University of California, Davis and Humboldt State University from July 2021 through June 2026. The grant funds ecological and social science research to develop a socio-environmental systems framework for informing coastal habitat restoration decisions under climate change. At UC Davis, the grant supports coordination of scuba diving research at multiple northern...
The American Museum of Natural History received a $128,728 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation Division of Ocean Sciences on September 1, 2021 to complete the project by August 31, 2024. The grant supports collaborative research to conduct in situ investigations and historical analysis of eddy impacts on coastal carbon chemistry and coral calcification. This work will strengthen the fundamental scientific understanding of the integrated earth system as called for under the...
The National Science Foundation Division of Ocean Sciences awarded a $561,018 project grant to the University of South Carolina under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) to conduct collaborative research examining three decades of foraminiferal assemblages in the Santa Barbara Basin. Over the three-year period from July 2022 to June 2025, the University will create a thirty-year record of planktic foraminifera abundances from stored samples collected in the Santa Barbara Basin, California....
This $472,597 National Science Foundation project grant supports research on the photophysiology and bio-optics of mesophotic coral reef ecosystems in the Red Sea. Funded under the Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074), the research will employ an interdisciplinary approach including fieldwork, laboratory analysis, and advanced imaging to establish the light-harvesting properties of corals thriving at depths with extremely limited light availability. Specifically, the team will collect and...
