- This National Science Foundation (NSF) grant, funded through the Biological Sciences Division's Organismal Responses to Climate Change program (CFDA 47.074 Biological Sciences), provides $219,919 to Cornell University for a 3-year collaborative research project on the mechanisms underlying the unusual high CO2 sensitivity of sand lance, a key forage fish species in the Northwest Atlantic. The project aims to: 1) Rear sand lance offspring from wild spawners to late larval stages under varying CO2...
- The National Science Foundation (NSF) awarded a $453,825 Project Grant under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) to the University of Connecticut from August 15, 2023 to July 31, 2026. The project aims to investigate the unusual high sensitivity of sand lance fish embryos to ocean acidification and warming, which are direct consequences of climate change. Key objectives include: 1) testing the CO2 and temperature sensitivity of sand lance larvae, 2) using transcriptomic tools to elucidate...
- This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) provides $415,682 to the California State University Long Beach Research Foundation to conduct research on the effects of ocean warming on a coastal fish species. The key objectives are to: 1) quantify genetic variation in temperature response, 2) determine if local adaptation to temperature exists, and 3) assess whether evolutionary changes can occur quickly enough to impact population...
- This $358,499 Project Grant from the National Science Foundation Division of Ocean Sciences, under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050), will fund research to understand the impact of warming on the structure and function of marine communities in the Northwest Atlantic Shelf region, including the Gulf of Maine and Mid-Atlantic Bight. The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, through its Office of Sponsored Research, will characterize the composition and features of plankton and fish...
- The National Science Foundation (NSF) Division of Ocean Sciences awarded a $412,592 Project Grant to Cornell University to conduct research on the genomic and evolutionary impacts of climate change on an anadromous fish species. The project aims to use time series genetic data within an anadromous fish system to observe poleward range shifting at the subpopulation level for the American shad species. Over the 2-year award period from September 1, 2023 to August 31, 2025, the research will...
- This $753,082 three-year Project Grant from the National Science Foundation's Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) supports research at Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution to understand how behavioral adaptations in foraging effort by wandering albatrosses and black-browed albatrosses may mitigate population declines due to climate change. The grant funds development of eco-evolutionary matrix population models incorporating climate scenarios to forecast population trends and persistence...
- This National Science Foundation (NSF) Polar Programs (CFDA 47.078) Project Grant award of $358,622 to the University of Illinois from March 1, 2024 to February 28, 2026 aims to characterize the evolution of proteins that integrate signals of warming, changing pH, and oxidation in the sensory systems of three species of Arctic and sub-Arctic fish. The research will provide insight into the sensitivity and responses of these fish to climate change through the generation and analysis of...
- This $879,520 National Science Foundation award through the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) funds a collaborative research project examining the implications of rapid Arctic change for fisheries and fishing communities in the western North Atlantic. Led by the Gulf of Maine Research Institute, the project builds a network to develop a climate vulnerability assessment and predictive models evaluating how changes in the Arctic cryosphere and ocean circulation affect ecosystem and fishery...
- The University of Massachusetts Dartmouth received a $304,351 National Science Foundation (NSF) Project Grant under the Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) to conduct research on "Collaborative Research: ORCC: Carryover Effects of Multiple Climate Change Stressors in Oysters: Mechanisms and Consequences Across Stages of Ontogeny." The research aims to experimentally test how early life exposure to ocean warming and low dissolved oxygen affects the Eastern Oyster's responses to...
- This federal Project Grant award of $432,357 from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) supports research to understand how fishes have adapted to high-pressure environments in the deep ocean. The research aims to: Characterize patterns of genome evolution across 100 species of perciform fishes found at depths ranging from 0-8,000 meters. Measure structural changes in key biomolecules involved in metabolism, cell movement, and stress responses across...
