The National Science Foundation awarded a $174,000 Project Grant to North Richmond, California under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) for research titled "Morphological and Ecological Disparity of Spiriferida (Brachiopoda) at Local, Regional, and Global Scales." The two-year award beginning September 1, 2021 will support research examining variations in form and habitat preferences of an ancient marine organism group across different spatial scales to further the program's goals...
The National Science Foundation (NSF) has awarded a Project Grant under the Geosciences (CFDA 47.050) program to The Regents of the University of California, Berkeley (UC Berkeley) in the amount of $196,218 for the period of October 1, 2024 to August 31, 2025. This grant supports a collaborative research project examining the effects of marine heatwaves on reproduction, larval transport, and recruitment in sea urchin metapopulations. The research team will develop oceanographic models to predict...
This National Science Foundation Project Grant awarded under the Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) is funding a collaborative research project to investigate the relationship between surface productivity and ecological structure in marine benthic communities. The $360,460 award to the University of California, Berkeley will leverage the Panama Paleontology Project's extensive modern and fossil mollusk collections to (1) evaluate how productivity affects the energetics and trophic structure of...
This National Science Foundation (NSF) Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) Project Grant, awarded on June 1, 2025, provides $738,152 to the University of Massachusetts to integrate thermal physiology and species interactions to forecast the community response to environmental change. The key objectives are to: 1) use physiological assays to compare the thermal performance of native and invasive predatory marine invertebrates and their prey, 2) measure temperature-dependent predation, intraguild...
The National Science Foundation (NSF) Division of Earth Sciences awarded a $202,138 Project Grant to the University of Washington under the Geosciences (CFDA 47.050) program. The grant funds a collaborative research project to examine the evolution of North American small mammal communities in response to landscape changes over the past 30 to 5 million years. The researchers will collect fossils and sediment samples from the U.S. Great Plains and Northwest to study how changes in habitat...
This $1,599,937 National Science Foundation project grant under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) supports research at the University of California, Davis and Humboldt State University from July 2021 through June 2026. The grant funds ecological and social science research to develop a socio-environmental systems framework for informing coastal habitat restoration decisions under climate change. At UC Davis, the grant supports coordination of scuba diving research at multiple northern...
This National Science Foundation (NSF) Project Grant award under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) provides $338,988 to Sam Houston State University (SHSU) from July 1, 2024 to June 30, 2029 to study the longevity and life history of fossil bivalves. The project aims to: 1) determine if lifespan is a heritable trait in bivalves, 2) explain body size trends through changes in life history strategy, and 3) examine how latitudinal life history gradients shift in alternate climate settings....
