The University of Wyoming received a $180,120 two-year Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation under the Integrative Activities program (CFDA 47.083) to conduct research titled "Ecological Community Responses to Global Change: Predicting Effects on Community Dynamics and Ecosystem Stability." This grant will fund research from February 2021 through January 2023 exploring how global changes impact ecological community dynamics and ecosystem stability. As part of the...
This $687,357 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) supports research to study repeated evolution in a diverse group of alpine beetles. The researchers will explore whether natural selection has acted on the same molecular pathways as species adapted to alpine environments during past climate cycles. Comparative genomic and stress tolerance experiments will test for evidence of repeated evolution and identify the genetic mechanisms...
This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) provides $240,000 in funding over 3 years starting June 1, 2025 to investigate how an alpine plant species in the Rocky Mountains will respond and adapt to climate change. The research aims to understand how population responses to microclimate variation impact range shifts under climate change scenarios. The project will use field and greenhouse experiments, genetic analyses, and...
This federal Project Grant awarded by the National Science Foundation (NSF) Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) provides $800,000 to the University of Kansas Center for Research Inc. over a 3-year period from September 1, 2024 to August 31, 2027. The award aims to improve understanding of what constrains the geographic distributions of species, both currently and under future climate change scenarios. The project will integrate demographic methods into species distribution models (SDMs) to...
The University of Arkansas, Fayetteville received a $275,142 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation under the Integrative Activities program (CFDA 47.083) to conduct research on how climate warming may impact species coexistence through changes in competition-predation trade-offs. The university will use experiments on damselflies to develop an understanding of how increased temperature affects these trade-offs at the behavioral, physiological and evolutionary levels....
This National Science Foundation (NSF) Biological Sciences (CFDA 47.074) project grant, awarded on August 15, 2024 for $214,838, will support collaborative research to study how local adaptation and climatic extremes shape continental-scale changes in distribution and abundance under climate change. The project will use transplant experiments and long-term monitoring of two widespread tundra plant species across 29 populations in western North America. The research aims to develop...
The National Science Foundation Division of Integrative Organismal Systems awarded a $763,791 Project Grant to the University of Wyoming to study species roles and impacts of species loss in mixed-species animal groups from April 15, 2022 to March 31, 2025. This award supports research under the Biological Sciences federal grant program (CFDA 47.074), which aims to increase scientific knowledge and understanding of major problems confronting the nation. Specifically, the grant will fund field...
This two-year, $276,000 National Science Foundation project grant funds statistical modeling and simulation research under the Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074). The grantee will develop a unified theoretical, empirical and computational framework to predict how ecological and evolutionary dynamics propagate in response to perturbations across scales over time. Using agent-based simulations of random and experimentally perturbed eco-evolutionary systems, the grantee will characterize...
The National Science Foundation (NSF) awarded a $307,382 Project Grant under its Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) to Boise State University. The three-year grant, effective September 1, 2023 through August 31, 2026, will fund research to measure how climate change may disrupt the species interactions that shape local adaptation in big sagebrush (Artemisia tridentata) populations. The project will integrate field and lab-based reciprocal transplant experiments, soil microbiome...
This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation (NSF) Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) supports research at the University of Wyoming to study the evolutionary effects of fish predation on zooplankton in high mountain lake ecosystems. The $307,371 award will be used to quantify differences in the elemental composition and nutrient cycling between zooplankton populations in lakes with and without introduced trout. The project aims to improve understanding of the impacts...
