This $749,164 National Science Foundation Project Grant under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) will fund research to reconstruct climate linkages across the tropical oceans over the last millennium. The University of California, Santa Barbara will collaborate with researchers to produce records of tropical sea surface temperature variability using geochemistry from long-lived corals in the Pacific, Atlantic, and Indian Oceans. Comparing multi-century coral data from these ocean basins...
This $482,354 federal Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) supports a collaborative research project to study central tropical Pacific climate variability over the last millennium. The award, made on June 15, 2024, will fund the assembly and analysis of radiocarbon-dated ancient coral segments recovered from the central equatorial Pacific to reconstruct monthly records of seawater temperature and salinity conditions. The research aims to...
This three-year project grant from the National Science Foundation Division of Atmospheric and Geospace Sciences totals $417,928 to fund research titled "COLLABORATIVE RESEARCH: P2C2--CORAL PROXY AND CLIMATE MODEL COMPARISON TO UNDERSTAND CLIMATE VARIABILITY IN THE INTRA-AMERICAS SEA REGION." The research will be performed by Louisiana State University under the NSF's Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050), which supports basic research in atmospheric, earth, and ocean sciences to...
This National Science Foundation (NSF) Division of Ocean Sciences Project Grant awarded $442,344 to The Regents of the University of Colorado, doing business as the University of Colorado Office of Contracts and Grants Division, to conduct research under the NSF's Geosciences (CFDA 47.050) program. The research aims to evaluate the emergence of an anthropogenic signal in the tropical Indo-Pacific region by leveraging long-term, seasonal coral data, instrumental observations, and climate model...
This $172,778 project grant from the National Science Foundation Division of Ocean Sciences, under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050), will fund research to test climate model predictions of hydrologic change in the tropical Atlantic during a past warm period. Specifically, the awardee, Utah State University, will geochemically analyze oxygen isotopes and magnesium-to-calcium ratios in planktonic foraminifera from deep-sea sediment cores at several sites, including Ocean Drilling Project Site...
This $415,924 federal Project Grant award, funded by the National Science Foundation's Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050), will support collaborative research to investigate the large-scale dynamics of the tropical Indo-Pacific region during the Last Glacial Maximum. The project aims to reconstruct the tropical thermocline structure and wind patterns using ocean modeling and geochemical analysis of foraminifera sediment samples. This research will lead to a better understanding of how the...
This NSF Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) Project Grant award of $396,820 to Brown University will be used to produce up to 20 new monthly-resolved records of sea-surface temperature and hydrological variability in the central tropical Pacific from 1800-1950 CE. The project will use oxygen isotope and trace element measurements in modern and fossil corals from Kiritimati Island to reconstruct this climate history. The research aims to improve understanding of long-term trends and variability in...
The University of Michigan will receive $331,413 under a three-year Project Grant from the National Science Foundation Division of Earth Sciences to develop precipitation, evaporation and temperature records from tropical lake sediments and cave deposits for the last 700,000 years. The grant will support basic research in the atmospheric, earth, and ocean sciences under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050), which aims to strengthen understanding of the integrated Earth system through...
This National Science Foundation (NSF) Geosciences program Project Grant, CFDA 47.050, provides $303,755 in funding to Georgia Tech Research Corporation to conduct collaborative research on reconstructing climate variability in the Southern Caribbean using coral and speleothem paleoclimate records. The 3-year project from September 2023 to August 2026 will generate high-resolution, precisely dated proxy records of temperature and hydroclimate from the arid Southern Caribbean region, which has...
This National Science Foundation Project Grant of $614,058 will fund research at San Diego State University from September 2022 to August 2025 under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050).
