This $749,164 National Science Foundation Project Grant under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) will fund research to reconstruct climate linkages across the tropical oceans over the last millennium. The University of California, Santa Barbara will collaborate with researchers to produce records of tropical sea surface temperature variability using geochemistry from long-lived corals in the Pacific, Atlantic, and Indian Oceans. Comparing multi-century coral data from these ocean basins...
This $482,354 federal Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) supports a collaborative research project to study central tropical Pacific climate variability over the last millennium. The award, made on June 15, 2024, will fund the assembly and analysis of radiocarbon-dated ancient coral segments recovered from the central equatorial Pacific to reconstruct monthly records of seawater temperature and salinity conditions. The research aims to...

This National Science Foundation (NSF) Division of Ocean Sciences Project Grant awarded $442,344 to The Regents of the University of Colorado, doing business as the University of Colorado Office of Contracts and Grants Division, to conduct research under the NSF's Geosciences (CFDA 47.050) program. The research aims to evaluate the emergence of an anthropogenic signal in the tropical Indo-Pacific region by leveraging long-term, seasonal coral data, instrumental observations, and climate model simulations. Key objectives include reconstructing historic temperature, salinity, and precipitation variability, and quantifying uncertainties in using coral data to infer relationships with sea surface salinity over time. The work also supports an early career scientist, graduate student, and undergraduate researchers. The grant period is from July 1, 2023 to June 30, 2026.
