This three-year National Science Foundation Project Grant of $770,868 will support research from July 1, 2022 to June 30, 2025 examining how seasonal migration influences genetic migration in boreal forest bird species. Funded through the Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074), the University of Michigan will investigate the relationship between seasonal long-distance migration and genetic differentiation using genomic tools and migration tracking tags across 32 co-distributed bird species....
The University of Michigan was awarded a two-year, $349,312 Project Grant from the National Science Foundation under the Biological Sciences federal grant program (CFDA 47.074). The grant aims to enhance capabilities for forecasting tree species population trajectories under changing environments through synthesis. Specifically, the University will conduct research to increase scientific understanding of major problems confronting the nation by promoting progress in the biological sciences....
This $185,395 Project Grant from the National Science Foundation's Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) supports collaborative research on continent-wide changes in forest recruitment across North America. The grantee, Regents of the University of Michigan, will conduct extensive gradient sampling of tree fecundity, seedling success, and vertebrate activity distributed across climate and habitat zones. Predictive vertebrate modeling using data from camera traps, live trapping, and bird...
This $297,323 Project Grant was awarded by the National Science Foundation (NSF) Division of Environmental Biology under the Biological Sciences (CFDA 47.074) federal grant program. The funding supports a collaborative research project to study how habitat structure, specifically the spatial arrangement of plants and resources, impacts avian biodiversity across local to continental scales. Using airborne and satellite Light Detection and Ranging (LiDAR) sensors, the project will explore the...
This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) supports research aimed at incorporating behavioral science insights into models for predicting the eco-evolutionary responses of North American bird species to climate change. The $901,999 award to the University of Texas at Austin, spanning August 2024 to July 2027, will leverage indicators of behavioral flexibility, such as relative brain size, to improve forecasts of changes in...
This National Science Foundation Project Grant of $711,741 awarded on October 1, 2022 will fund research and education activities advancing understanding of climate-phenology coupling through 2026. Under the Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074), the University of Michigan will develop a macrosystems framework to quantify interactions between climate and phenology across scales. Researchers will analyze phenology data globally and from the National Ecological Observatory Network to...
The National Science Foundation awarded a $303,166 Project Grant to Michigan State University under the Biological Sciences federal grant program (CFDA 47.074) to support research from January 1, 2023 to December 31, 2026. The grant will fund an interdisciplinary team to study the migratory and adaptive potential of the partridge pea plant (Chamaecrista fasciculata) under climate change. The researchers will evaluate genetic differences and gene flow among plant populations to identify models...
The National Science Foundation Division of Environmental Biology awarded Michigan Technological University a $659,611 Project Grant under the Biological Sciences federal grant program (CFDA 47.074) to conduct collaborative research from June 1, 2021 to May 31, 2024.
