- This $201,294 National Science Foundation project grant under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) will fund research into carbon cycle feedbacks during the Paleocene-Eocene Thermal Maximum. The grantee, Regents of the University of California at Riverside, will generate new records of ocean chemistry and develop novel modeling strategies to quantify global carbon cycle responses during this past period of warming. A postdoctoral researcher at UC Santa Cruz and undergraduate interns from UC...
- This $303,642 National Science Foundation project grant will fund research to quantify global carbon cycle feedbacks during the Paleocene-Eocene Thermal Maximum, a past period of global warming. Led by the University of California Santa Cruz, the research team will measure how volcanism contributed to atmospheric carbon dioxide rise during this event and constrain total carbon emissions through new ocean acidification records. They will also develop novel carbon cycle modeling to compare...
- This $200,000.00 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) will enable the Regents of the University of California at Riverside to conduct collaborative research evaluating paradigms in phosphorus (P) biogeochemical cycling. The study will determine the role of the atmosphere as a supplier of P, a key soil nutrient, to ecosystems by reconstructing how P cycled over time using lake sediments. The research aims to re-evaluate established paradigms...
- This $130,076 Project Grant was awarded by the National Science Foundation's Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) to The Regents of the University of California, doing business as the University of California, Berkeley. The grant funds a collaborative research project to model marine paleocommunity dynamics across the Permian-Triassic mass extinction event 251 million years ago. The project aims to reconstruct ancient ecosystem food webs and test uniformitarian assumptions about paleo-food web...
- This $398,984 Project Grant award, provided by the National Science Foundation's Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050), supports research to quantify the biophysical, physiological, and phenological impacts of increasing carbon dioxide (CO2) levels on vegetation and their effects on future climate change. The research utilizes the Community Earth System Model to examine the direct impacts of CO2 fertilization and stomatal closure, as well as the indirect effects of a longer growing season, on...
- This $632,314 federal Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) will support a research project led by the University of California San Diego's Scripps Institution of Oceanography. The project aims to provide a better understanding of the physical and biogeochemical processes driving carbon cycling in the equatorial Pacific Ocean. Using a combination of ocean models, autonomous observations, and satellite data, the project will characterize...
- This National Science Foundation (NSF) Project Grant awarded under CFDA 47.050 Geosciences program provides $150,602 to the University of California, Irvine (UCI) to conduct collaborative research on changes in the carbon cycle between the Earth, ocean, and atmosphere over geological timescales. The researchers will use radiocarbon dating of microfossil shells to determine if the deep Indian Ocean stored substantial amounts of carbon during the last ice age, which could have affected past global...
- The National Science Foundation (NSF) awarded a $308,843 Project Grant under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) to the University of California, Santa Barbara (UCSB) for the project "Collaborative Research: Reconstructing Ocean Sedimentation Rate Variability to Improve Age Estimates for Paleoclimate Data." This project aims to improve the accuracy of sediment age models by compiling radiometric ages from over 250 marine sediment cores. The new data will be used to enhance the...
- This $372,195 federal Project Grant, awarded by the National Science Foundation's Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050), supports a collaborative research project to study the effects of climate change on mammalian functional diversity using a high-resolution fossil record and novel AI workflows. The key products and services to be delivered under this 3-year award, which began on November 1, 2024, include: Generating 3D datasets from micro-CT scans of mammalian fossils to characterize functional...
- The University of Southern California will receive $240,634 from the National Science Foundation under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) to conduct collaborative research from August 1, 2022 to July 31, 2025. The research aims to illuminate fundamental climate processes that influenced terrestrial ecology in western Pangea during Earth's previous icehouse period between 304-280 million years ago. Researchers will identify the stratigraphic position of the Carboniferous-Permian boundary in...
