This Project Grant from the National Science Foundation's Division of Ocean Sciences, under the Geosciences federal grant program (CFDA 47.050), provides $726,244 to Rutgers, The State University for research correcting seasonal biases in sea surface temperature proxies. The research aims to improve paleoceanographic reconstructions by developing approaches to extract seasonal and mean annual temperature records from proxies. It will test these approaches in climate models under different...
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). The award will support efforts to improve reconstructions of past sea surface temperatures through developing methods to extract seasonal and mean annual temperature signals from geochemical proxies. Researchers will test approaches for correcting seasonal biases in proxy records against climate model...
This $269,580 National Science Foundation Project Grant under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) will fund research at Oregon State University to improve paleoclimate reconstruction in high-latitude regions. The university will develop new and enhanced trace element to calcium paleoproxies for understudied temperate to polar planktic foraminiferal species found in the Northern California Current region. Researchers will establish magnesium to calcium-temperature and sodium to calcium-salinity...
The Ohio State University received a $652,363 Project Grant from the National Science Foundation (NSF) Division of Atmospheric and Geospace Sciences under the Geosciences CFDA program. The grant supports research to quantify the contributions of atmospheric and oceanic forcing to low-frequency sea surface temperature (SST) variability in the North Atlantic and North Pacific oceans. The project uses a stochastic model to analyze observational datasets and climate model simulations to understand...
This National Science Foundation Project Grant of $1,078,024 will fund research to reconstruct climate linkages across the tropical oceans over the last millennium through May 2025. Under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050), which supports basic research in atmospheric, earth, and ocean sciences, the University of Michigan will produce new paleoclimate records of sea surface temperature using the geochemistry of long-lived corals from the tropical North Atlantic and western Indian Ocean....
This $711,586 project grant from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) will fund research at North Carolina State University to analyze thirty years of foraminiferal assemblages from the Santa Barbara Basin. The grantee will create a record of planktic foraminifera abundances from stored samples collected in the basin and connect the results to modern oceanographic measurements and older seafloor sediments. This will improve understanding of how climate change has...
This two-year, $267,912 National Science Foundation Project Grant under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) will fund research to improve paleoclimate proxy records in high-latitude regions. The principal investigator, George Mason University, will develop new and refine existing trace element to calcium ratio paleoproxies using planktic foraminifera species from the Northern California Current region. The research aims to establish temperature and salinity calibration relationships,...
This three-year, $384,577 project grant from the National Science Foundation's Division of Ocean Sciences, under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050), will support collaborative research to construct robust temperature and ice volume histories during the late Cretaceous and Cenozoic periods (approximately 77-0 million years ago). The University of Rochester will utilize benthic foraminiferal test compositions from sea floor sediments to develop proxy records of deep ocean temperatures,...
This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) provides $144,969 to Iowa State University of Science and Technology to produce a continuous, annually resolved, and millennial-length marine climate history of the Northeast Pacific Ocean region. The project will utilize paleoclimate proxies from bivalve mollusks, tree-ring chronologies, and tropical coral growth-increment records to reconstruct sea surface temperatures and climate variability in...
This $784,389 National Science Foundation project grant under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) supports research into the causes of sea surface temperature fluctuations in the North Atlantic Ocean and their climatic impacts. The University of California, Riverside will conduct climate model simulations using the Community Earth System Model to explore the roles of natural variability versus external forcing factors like anthropogenic aerosols in driving the temperature changes. Specific...

This three-year, $232,034 project grant from the National Science Foundation Division of Ocean Sciences' Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) will fund research to improve reconstructions of past sea surface temperatures. The Ohio State University will work to test and refine approaches for extracting seasonal and mean annual temperature signals from geochemical proxies of past sea surface temperatures. They will also produce new paired foraminifera-magnesium/calcium and alkenone derived sea surface temperature records from seven locations during the Holocene, Last Interglacial, and Marine Isotope Stage 9 time periods. This work aims to account for seasonal biases in proxies to better understand drivers of sea surface temperature change in response to internal and external forcings during warm interglacial periods. The project also includes training and public outreach components.
