This Project Grant from the National Science Foundation Division of Ocean Sciences provides $336,517 to President and Fellows of Harvard College from September 1, 2021 through August 31, 2024. The funding supports collaborative research analyzing 150 years of sea surface and subsurface observations to map whole-ocean temperature and detect circulation changes. This work aligns with the goals of the Geosciences program under the Catalog of Federal Domestic Assistance number 47.050. This CFDA...
This National Science Foundation (NSF) Project Grant award under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) provides $374,314 to Yale University to investigate changes in carbon uptake and storage in the Pacific Ocean during the Pliocene era, around 3 million years ago, as an analog for understanding the ocean's response to modern climate warming. The researchers will use data and models to quantify the impacts of temperature-sensitive mechanisms, such as circulation changes and biological processes,...
This $690,233 five-year Project Grant award was issued by the National Science Foundation's Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) to President and Fellows of Harvard College. The project aims to develop a basic scientific understanding of soil moisture and its changes under a warming climate, addressing two key questions: (1) what are the key controls on the spatial variability of soil moisture in the present-day climate, and (2) how will soil moisture change in a warming world? To address these...
This three-year Project Grant from the National Science Foundation Division of Ocean Sciences provides $384,286 to President And Fellows Of Harvard College for collaborative research titled "ILLUMINATING THE CENOZOIC ALKENONE PCO2 RECORD." The research aims to strengthen understanding of the integrated Earth system through basic research in atmospheric, earth, and ocean sciences, as outlined in the NSF's Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050). Specifically, the funding will support...
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...
This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Division of Ocean Sciences, under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050), provides $333,652 to Harvard University for a 2-year study to reconstruct atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO2) levels during the Late Cretaceous through Paleocene periods, approximately 79 to 61 million years ago. The research focuses on analyzing organic molecules and isotopes preserved in sediment cores collected during the International Ocean Discovery...
The National Science Foundation Division of Ocean Sciences awarded a $240,179 project grant to the University of California Santa Cruz under the Geosciences federal grant program (CFDA 47.050) on January 15, 2023. The grant will fund the development of high-resolution paleoceanographic records from the late Miocene to early Pliocene periods (8.3-4.0 million years ago) at the central Pacific sector of the Southern Ocean. Specifically, the project will generate a UK’37-based sea surface...
The Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution received a $287,144 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation Division of Earth Sciences. The grant will fund a collaborative research project titled "COLLABORATIVE RESEARCH: AN INTEGRATED MODEL-PROXY APPROACH TO UNDERSTANDING WESTERN US HYDROCLIMATE CHANGE SINCE THE LAST GLACIAL PERIOD" from July 1, 2021 through June 30, 2024. The research aims to strengthen understanding of the integrated Earth system through basic research in...
The National Science Foundation (NSF) Division of Ocean Sciences awarded a $323,234 Project Grant to Claremont McKenna College under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) for the period of January 1, 2024 to December 31, 2026. The project, titled "MCA PILOT PUI: PROXY-MODEL COMPARISON USING CARBON ISOTOPES FROM ANNUALLY BANDED MARINE CALCIFIERS AND OCEAN CIRCULATION INVERSE MODELS TO EVALUATE COASTAL CARBON CYCLE PROCESSES," will use data from proxy archives to perform a model-proxy...
The National Science Foundation (NSF) Division of Earth Sciences awarded a $380,445 Project Grant under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) to George Mason University in Fairfax, Virginia. The grant supports collaborative research to characterize the drivers of hydroclimate change over Western North America and Europe in response to the global warmth of the Middle Miocene, approximately 15 million years ago. The research aims to understand how water availability may change as the Earth's...
