This three-year Project Grant from the National Science Foundation Division of Ocean Sciences provides $139,898 to Florida State University from July 2021 through June 2024. The funding supports research to quantify sedimentary oxygen and carbon dioxide dynamics in a dry sandy beach affected by macroalgae deposition. This award advances the goals of the NSF's Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050), which aims to strengthen the national scientific enterprise through expanded fundamental knowledge...
Florida State University was awarded a three-year, $142,382 Project Grant from the National Science Foundation under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050). The grant will support collaborative research investigating the source and flux of dissolved organic carbon released from methane seeps to the deep ocean. As part of the Geosciences program's mission to expand fundamental knowledge of the integrated Earth system through basic research, this project will enhance understanding of carbon cycling...
This $552,775 Project Grant awarded by the National Science Foundation's Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) will fund research to investigate benthic iron fluxes in the Labrador Sea, an important region of deep-water formation. The project aims to identify and quantify iron sources from ocean sediments to the overlying surface waters, which can influence the biological carbon pump in this high-latitude region. The research team from Florida State University will collect sediment and pore water...
This $300,785 federal Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) supports a research project to characterize the chemical composition and bioavailability of dissolved organic matter released by marine nitrifying microorganisms. The project aims to determine how this material contributes to carbon cycling in the deep ocean, which may help improve biogeochemical models and inform potential marine carbon dioxide removal activities. The research will...
This $372,154 Project Grant awarded by the National Science Foundation's Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) supports collaborative research on the bioavailability of organic matter released from retreating glaciers. The research, conducted by Florida State University, aims to investigate the sources and cycling of this glacial organic matter and its implications for downstream aquatic ecosystems and global carbon cycling. Key activities include using advanced analytical techniques such as...
This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) will synthesize data on the role of coastal sediments in carbon and nutrient cycling along the East Coast of the United States. The $453,714 award to Trustees of Boston University, spanning April 2025 to March 2028, will combine sediment, water column, and modeling data to evaluate how environmental conditions influence benthic fluxes of carbon, oxygen, and nutrients in this relatively data-rich...
This Project Grant award of $480,691.00 from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) supports research to quantify spatial and temporal changes in organic carbon sequestration within shelf sediments along the Umpqua River in Oregon. The project will revisit sites previously sampled in 2009 to map sedimentation and organic carbon deposition patterns using geophysical surveys and sediment core analyses. Researchers will examine how factors like river sediment...
Florida State University Sponsored Research Administration Division was awarded $336,344 under a Project Grant from the National Science Foundation Division of Earth Sciences Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) to conduct research testing for an enhanced metamorphic carbon flux on the Proterozoic Earth in central Ontario, Canada from July 1, 2023 to June 30, 2026. The grantee will use field work, numerical modeling, and geochemical techniques to understand how tectonic processes released carbon...
The National Science Foundation (NSF) Division of Ocean Sciences awarded a $802,309 project grant to The Research Foundation For The State University Of New York, doing business as Stony Brook University, under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050). This grant will fund a 3-year research project to advance the understanding and quantitative modeling of how complex patterns of oxidation-reduction and acid-base reactions within the bioturbated zone of ocean sediments impact biogeochemical...
The National Science Foundation awarded a $306,062 Project Grant to Princeton University under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) to conduct collaborative research from April 2022 through March 2025.
