This $521,796 National Science Foundation project grant through the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) supports collaborative research at San Diego State University Foundation from April 1, 2023 to March 31, 2026. The research will investigate how changing ocean conditions like ocean acidification and nutrient pollution affect the growth and survival of eelgrass, a foundational species that provides valuable ecosystem services. Researchers will examine how these stressors interact with local...
This $200,000 federal Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) will support research to investigate the impact of changes in seawater carbonate chemistry, such as ocean acidification, on shell formation in tropical marine bivalves. The research will be conducted at the State University of New York, College of Environmental Science and Forestry (SUNY ESF) and the University of Hawai'i, Hilo. The project aims to identify the specific carbonate...
This three-year, $564,168 National Science Foundation project grant supports research exploring the impacts of altered seawater chemistry on calcification and behavior in coastal invertebrates. Funded under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050), the award will allow the University of California, Davis to investigate the responses of mussels and snails to decoupled components of the seawater carbonate system. The research aims to disentangle the drivers influencing calcification and behavioral...
The National Science Foundation (NSF) Division of Ocean Sciences awarded the University of California, Davis (UC Davis) a $652,262 Project Grant through the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) to conduct collaborative research on how microbial symbionts protect eelgrass from the impacts of thermal stress associated with global climate change. The research aims to: (1) assess the assembly and function of the eelgrass microbiome under ambient and elevated temperature conditions, (2) determine how...
The National Science Foundation (NSF) Division of Ocean Sciences awarded a $802,309 project grant to The Research Foundation For The State University Of New York, doing business as Stony Brook University, under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050). This grant will fund a 3-year research project to advance the understanding and quantitative modeling of how complex patterns of oxidation-reduction and acid-base reactions within the bioturbated zone of ocean sediments impact biogeochemical...
This $716,649 National Science Foundation Project Grant through the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) will fund research at the University of Rhode Island to quantify changes in ocean acidification (OA) in Narragansett Bay, Rhode Island resulting from reductions in nutrient inputs. Over the past few decades, management agencies have reduced nutrient loads to coastal waters by over one-third to improve water quality, which could lower OA levels even though that was not the initial goal....
This National Science Foundation (NSF) Project Grant award under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) is providing $543,159 to the University of California, Davis to conduct research on seagrass biogeochemistry and sedimentary alkalinity production in coastal carbon cycling. The research will quantify sediment alkalinity fluxes and investigate the biogeochemical processes controlling them across two contrasting seagrass ecosystems. This work aims to improve understanding of alkalinity and...
This National Science Foundation (NSF) award under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) will support a collaborative research project to assess the role of seagrass biogeochemistry and sedimentary alkalinity production in coastal carbon cycling and marine carbon dioxide removal strategies. The $250,751 grant awarded to the Georgia Southern University Research & Service Foundation Inc. will fund research to quantify sediment total alkalinity fluxes and investigate the biogeochemical...
The National Science Foundation awarded a $137,597 project grant to Radford University's Office of Sponsored Programs and Grants Management under the agency's Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050). The award funds collaborative research to understand the impacts of biotic and abiotic stressors, such as predation and ocean acidification, on sponge bioerosion of oyster reefs. The research aims to evaluate how Atlantic and Pacific boring sponge species respond to nudibranch predators under different...
This National Science Foundation (NSF) Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) Project Grant award of $334,904 to the Virginia Institute of Marine Science (VIMS) will support research on how the increasing prevalence of weedy seagrass species affects community interactions and coastal ecosystem functioning. The project will use large-scale field experiments to examine how different seagrass and bivalve species interact and impact coastal carbon cycling. The findings will enhance conservation and...
