This $300,785 federal Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) supports a research project to characterize the chemical composition and bioavailability of dissolved organic matter released by marine nitrifying microorganisms. The project aims to determine how this material contributes to carbon cycling in the deep ocean, which may help improve biogeochemical models and inform potential marine carbon dioxide removal activities. The research will...
The National Science Foundation (NSF) awarded a $161,665 Project Grant under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) to the Old Dominion University Research Foundation (Odurf) to investigate the magnitude and drivers of cold-season water and carbon export in North Atlantic salt marshes. The project aims to (1) monitor soil temperatures, groundwater, and surface water levels, salinity, and temperature in four salt marshes between Massachusetts and Nova Scotia; (2) quantify groundwater discharge...
The National Science Foundation awarded a $432,778 Project Grant to the University of Connecticut under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) for research titled "Collaborative Research: The Effects of Terrestrial Organic Matter Inputs on Coastal Mercury Cycling, Methylmercury Production and Bioaccumulation." The three-year award beginning June 1, 2022 will support research examining how increased terrestrial organic matter delivery to coastal waters from climate change influences...
This $499,225 National Science Foundation award under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) will fund a collaborative research project between Old Dominion University Research Foundation and the United States Department of Geological Survey to decipher drivers and variability in salt marsh lateral carbon export. Over three years, the researchers will investigate how elevation within the tidal frame influences dissolved inorganic carbon, total alkalinity, and dissolved organic carbon export...
This National Science Foundation (NSF) Award under the Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) supports fundamental research to characterize the physiological and environmental cycling of abundant osmolytes, which are small carbon-containing molecules produced by marine microorganisms. The $519,767 award to the University of North Carolina at Wilmington aims to quantify how environmental conditions, such as nutrient availability and temperature, impact the abundances and cycling rates of these...
This National Science Foundation (NSF) Project Grant award under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) provides $351,926 to Yale University to conduct research on the connections between tidal flooding, saltwater intrusion, and alkalinity exports in tidal marsh wetlands. The project will develop a mathematical model combining estuarine physics, hydrological drivers, and biogeochemistry to estimate how much alkalinity is delivered from marshes to the ocean. This research aims to improve...
