This $337,359 National Science Foundation project grant to The University of Toledo will fund research into the impact of climate change on functional biodiversity in Lake Tanganyika, Africa. The research will study Lake Tanganyika's sedimentary record to track changes in open water and benthic community structures and functions under different climate change scenarios using geochemical, fossil, and genomic tools. It will assess the physical and physiological responses of key organisms to...
This $192,702 project grant from the National Science Foundation's Division of Environmental Biology, under the Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074), will fund research at the University of Wyoming to study the impact of climate change on functional biodiversity in Lake Tanganyika, Africa. The research aims to track functional biodiversity lake-wide using Lake Tanganyika's high-resolution sedimentary record to establish a series of historical experiments. Researchers will integrate...
This five-year, $229,571 project grant from the National Science Foundation's Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) will fund research examining the impact of climate change on functional biodiversity in Lake Tanganyika, Africa. Led by Brown University, the project will use sedimentary records to model historical community structures and functions under different climate change scenarios. Researchers will assess open water and benthic communities using geochemical, fossil, and genomic tools....
This $572,766 National Science Foundation project grant supports collaborative research to study the impact of climate change on functional biodiversity in Lake Tanganyika, Africa. Funded under the Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074), the University of Kentucky Research Foundation will lead efforts through September 2027 to examine how aquatic organisms and economically important fish populations have responded to historical changes in temperature and precipitation levels within large...
This $793,094 federal Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Biological Sciences program will fund research at the University of Colorado to quantify how global environmental changes, such as drought and warming, impact biodiversity and ecosystem functioning. The project aims to transform understanding of the causal mechanisms by which biodiversity responds to global change drivers and how those biodiversity changes then feed back to alter productivity and other ecosystem...
This two-year Project Grant from the National Science Foundation (NSF) amounting to $138,000 will fund research identifying areas of high biological risk and predicting the impact of climate change on genetic diversity distribution. Awarded under the NSF's Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074), the grant will support the grantee located in Merced, California in advancing the program's goals of strengthening the Nation's biological science enterprise and increasing scientific knowledge of...
This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation (CFDA 47.074 - Biological Sciences) in the amount of $411,235 will support collaborative research to quantify the response of biodiverse freshwater ecosystems in Eastern Guatemala to abrupt and progressive environmental changes driven by rising sea levels. The research team, led by the University of Toledo, will collect sediment cores, surface sediment, fish, and water samples to generate high-resolution time series data on...
The National Science Foundation Division of Environmental Biology awarded a $928,161 Project Grant to The Reed Institute under the Biological Sciences federal grant program (CFDA 47.074) to resolve multi-scale ecological consequences of thermal refuges amidst climate warming. Over a five-year period ending April 2028, the grantee will document the extent and patterns of diversity associated with thermal refuges in freshwater ecosystems. Research will assess population-level costs and benefits of...
The National Science Foundation (NSF) awarded a $739,066 Project Grant to Duke University to examine how a model one-celled organism, Tetrahymena thermophila, adapts to changing temperatures. The funded research, part of NSF's Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074), aims to resolve critical gaps in understanding how rapid global climate change may affect the evolution of protist growth rates and respiration, with potential implications for both climate change and public health. The 5-year...
This $129,702 National Science Foundation project grant under the Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) supports collaborative research between the University of Miami and its sub-awardee to test for the acclimation of individual tropical rainforest trees to over four decades of climate change through a longitudinal study. The research aims to improve understanding of how Amazonian tree species have responded or not responded to climate change and the consequences for species performance and...
