The project will integrate discovery-based learning, model soil system experiments, and...
This $185,453 federal Project Grant award, provided by the National Science Foundation's Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050), supports collaborative research to quantify shifts in maize production in North America over the past 1,200 years. The research leverages paleoclimate data, weather modeling, and crop simulation techniques to understand the impacts of historical megadroughts and climate change on food production. Key activities include developing open-source software for climate field...

This National Science Foundation (NSF) Integrative Activities Program Project Grant, with CFDA Number 47.083, will enable the University of Alabama to develop a new research approach called "socio-agroclimatology" that links social processes influencing farmer choices on climate-smart agriculture (CSA) practices with land-atmosphere interactions and changing regional climate. The $524,566 grant, awarded on October 1, 2023, will be used to identify leverage points for scaling up CSA adoption, integrate with coupled atmosphere-land surface and cropping system models, and conduct participatory action research experiments with community partners. The goal is to generate actionable insights and recommendations to mitigate climate change impacts on small to medium U.S. farmers and support sustainable rural livelihoods. No sub-awards are planned under this grant.
