This $303,642 National Science Foundation project grant will fund research to quantify global carbon cycle feedbacks during the Paleocene-Eocene Thermal Maximum, a past period of global warming. Led by the University of California Santa Cruz, the research team will measure how volcanism contributed to atmospheric carbon dioxide rise during this event and constrain total carbon emissions through new ocean acidification records. They will also develop novel carbon cycle modeling to compare...
This $169,869 National Science Foundation Project Grant under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) will support the development of an intermediate complexity Earth system model to simulate the cycling of carbon dioxide and methane between vegetation, soils, the atmosphere, and oceans during the Paleocene-Eocene Thermal Maximum, approximately 56 million years ago. The Regents of the University of California at Riverside will couple representations of the terrestrial and marine carbon cycles...
This Project Grant award of $207,480 from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) supports research at Utah State University to disentangle paleoclimate signals from individual foraminiferal analyses across the Paleocene-Eocene Thermal Maximum (PETM) event. The goal is to develop new estimates of surface and deep-water warming and carbon cycle dynamics during this important past climate change event by applying advanced analytical techniques to well-preserved...
The University of California Santa Cruz received a three-year, $395,376 Project Grant from the National Science Foundation Division of Ocean Sciences under the Geosciences federal grant program (CFDA 47.050). The grant will fund research into the intensification of the hydrologic cycle during the Paleocene-Eocene Thermal Maximum period through the completion date of June 30, 2024. As described under the Geosciences program, the funding will support basic research to expand understanding of the...
This $632,314 federal Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) will support a research project led by the University of California San Diego's Scripps Institution of Oceanography. The project aims to provide a better understanding of the physical and biogeochemical processes driving carbon cycling in the equatorial Pacific Ocean. Using a combination of ocean models, autonomous observations, and satellite data, the project will characterize...
The University of California Santa Cruz received a two-year, $142,510 Project Grant from the National Science Foundation under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050). The grant funds collaborative research to uncover marine carbon chemistry dynamics during deglaciation through the use of boron isotopes and radiocarbon dating. The research aims to expand fundamental knowledge of the integrated Earth system by increasing understanding of atmospheric, earth, and ocean sciences processes. The grant...
The National Science Foundation Division of Ocean Sciences awarded $851,808 to the University Corporation for Atmospheric Research under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) for a project grant running from July 1, 2022 to June 30, 2025. The grant will support research analyzing tectonic degassing as a potential driver of the mid-Miocene climate transition approximately 14 million years ago, when the Earth experienced sustained cooling. Key products include new biomarker-based sea surface...
The National Science Foundation awarded a $799,904 Project Grant to the Regents of the University of California at Riverside under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) to study the role of varying ocean circulations in climate change from May 1, 2023 to April 30, 2028. The award will support research using an ensemble-overriding method with multiple climate models to quantify the effects of wind- and buoyancy-driven ocean circulation changes under various anthropogenic forcings. The work will...
This $308,515 federal Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) supports a collaborative research project to study changes in pelagic ecosystem function and their impact on the carbon cycle from the Eocene to Oligocene periods (56-33.9 million years ago). The project aims to reconstruct changes in the South Atlantic subtropical gyre ecosystem and determine how these changes affected carbonate production and preservation during a time of...
The Regents of the University of California at Riverside will use a $510,732 National Science Foundation Project Grant in the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) to understand Southern Ocean heat uptake and redistribution in a warming climate from September 2021 through August 2024. As part of its mission to strengthen the national scientific enterprise through expanding fundamental knowledge of the integrated Earth system, this NSF grant will support basic research examining how the Southern...
