The three-year award beginning June 1, 2023 will support research to conduct a global census of submesoscale ocean energetics using in-situ drifter observations and high-resolution ocean modeling. Key products include quantifying global submesoscale kinetic energy content and transfers across spatial scales to provide the first observational...
- Texas A&M University was awarded a $345,195 Project Grant from the National Science Foundation Division of Ocean Sciences. The grant falls under the NSF's Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050), which supports basic research to strengthen understanding of the integrated Earth system. Texas A&M will conduct a collaborative research project to quantify the impact of whitecap foam on air-sea momentum transfer through a laboratory experiment. The university will deliver experimental data and...
- The National Science Foundation Division of Ocean Sciences awarded a $256,224 Project Grant to Texas A&M University under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) from January 1, 2023 to December 31, 2025. The grant funds research to examine how northward flowing water masses are modified in the tropical Atlantic Ocean before reaching the North Atlantic through advecting Lagrangian particles and tracers for 60 years in two versions of the MOM6 global ocean model. The research aims to provide...
- This $702,603 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) will fund research at Texas A&M University-Corpus Christi to provide a comprehensive description of large-scale deep cycle turbulence (DCT) variation in the equatorial oceans. The study will leverage state-of-the-art ocean general circulation model simulations to quantify the influences of DCT on sea surface temperature and upper ocean heat transport in the equatorial oceans across...
- Texas A&M Agrilife Research received a $205,135 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation under the Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) to support upgrades to the rapidly growing Texas A&M Collection of Fishes specimen storage, organization, and database management from June 1, 2021 to May 31, 2024. The Biological Sciences program aims to promote progress in the biological sciences and strengthen the nation's scientific enterprise through increasing knowledge and...
- The National Science Foundation Division of Ocean Sciences awarded a $456,770 Project Grant to Texas A&M University under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) on September 1, 2021 for completion by August 31, 2024. The grant supports collaborative research titled "COLLABORATIVE RESEARCH: U.S. GEOTRACES GP17-OCE: DISSOLVED CONCENTRATIONS, ISOTOPES, AND COLLOIDS OF THE BIOACTIVE TRACE METALS." The research will be conducted at Texas A&M University in College Station, Texas and...
- This $879,520 National Science Foundation award through the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) funds a collaborative research project examining the implications of rapid Arctic change for fisheries and fishing communities in the western North Atlantic. Led by the Gulf of Maine Research Institute, the project builds a network to develop a climate vulnerability assessment and predictive models evaluating how changes in the Arctic cryosphere and ocean circulation affect ecosystem and fishery...
- This National Science Foundation (NSF) Project Grant award under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) provides $582,954 to Texas A&M University-Corpus Christi (TAMU-CC) to conduct an integrative investigation of dispersal plasticity using the clown anemonefish as a model system. The research objectives are to: 1) test the hypothesis that parents in high- and low-quality environments produce larvae with differences in morphology, behavior, physiology, and gene expression; 2) test the...
- Texas A&M University was awarded a $924,879 Project Grant from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) for the project "Identification of Ice Nucleation Sources from Marine Phytoplankton." This three-year award beginning September 1, 2021 will support research to strengthen understanding of the integrated Earth system through basic research investigating ice nucleation sources from marine phytoplankton in order to expand knowledge of atmospheric...
- This $199,476 federal Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Biological Sciences (CFDA 47.074) program supports collaborative research led by Texas A&M University to investigate the impacts of climate variability on coastal wetland ecosystems. The project aims to document the successional pathways and recovery of mangroves and salt marsh plants following hard freeze events that can devastate mangrove populations at the northern edges of their geographic range. The...
The National Science Foundation awarded a $749,548 Project Grant to Texas A&M University from October 1, 2021 to September 30, 2023 under the NSF Technology, Innovation, and Partnerships program (CFDA 47.084). The grant supports research combining high-resolution climate simulations with ocean biogeochemistry, fisheries, and decision-making models to improve sustainable fisheries management. Texas A&M will collaborate with sub-awardees the University of Texas at Austin, University of California San Diego's Scripps Institution of Oceanography, and the University Corporation for Atmospheric Research's National Center for Atmospheric Research. The sub-awardees will contribute their expertise in climate modeling, ocean sciences, and fisheries to develop integrated models and provide guidance to fishery managers on climate change impacts and adaptation strategies. The research aims to advance solutions to challenges in sustainable resource management as outlined by the NSF Technology, Innovation, and Partnerships program.
