The University of California Santa Cruz (UCSC) was awarded a $181,080 project grant from the National Science Foundation Division of Ocean Sciences under the Geosciences (CFDA 47.050) federal grant program. The grant will fund UCSC's project to decipher the role of the subantarctic South Pacific Ocean in Pleistocene climate evolution using sediment cores recovered from the JOIDES Resolution drilling expedition. UCSC will generate high-resolution climate proxy time series over the past two million years with an emphasis on changes across the mid-Pleistocene transition. The records will explore past climate and carbon dynamics at the ocean surface through reconstruction of dust input, nutrient utilization, export production, and other indicators. UCSC will synthesize and interpret these records in collaboration with other researchers studying related indicators. The project aims to address gaps in understanding global changes in ocean-atmosphere-ice sheet dynamics and carbon cycling during major climatic transitions through production of complementary biological and geochemical data from three drill sites in the subantarctic Pacific Ocean. The grant has a performance period from May 15, 2023 through April 30, 2026.
