- The National Science Foundation (NSF) awarded a $1,170,034 Project Grant under the Polar Programs (CFDA 47.078) to the University of Maine System to quantify the biogeochemical cycles and forecast future scenarios for sub-Arctic agroecosystems from Alaska to Greenland. The 3-year project, beginning January 1, 2026, will investigate the impacts of expanding agricultural practices on Arctic and sub-Arctic freshwater systems and ecosystems. The researchers will partner with 6 farms in South...
- This National Science Foundation (NSF) Polar Programs (CFDA 47.078) Project Grant award of $139,073 supports collaborative research to map the extent of the Arctic capillary hydrological system and advance understanding of how it has changed over time. The project aims to produce a pan-Arctic map of the capillary drainage network, which serves as an indicator of ice-rich permafrost thaw, and make the geospatial data publicly accessible. Field observations have shown increased Arctic river runoff...
