This National Science Foundation Division of Environmental Biology Project Grant award to Indiana State University will fund a collaborative research project to quantify the response of biodiverse freshwater ecosystems to abrupt and progressive environmental changes, such as marine water inundation due to sea-level rise. The $338,197 project, running from January 1, 2024 to December 31, 2028, will use the Izabal/Golfete system in eastern Guatemala as a natural laboratory to investigate how...
This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation (CFDA 47.074 - Biological Sciences) in the amount of $488,890 provides funding to the University of Notre Dame to study the response of biodiverse freshwater ecosystems to environmental changes caused by rising sea levels. The researchers will use the Izabal/Golfete system, a freshwater ecosystem in Eastern Guatemala, as a natural experiment to investigate how gradual versus rapid marine water inundation impacts the environment and...
This $2.9 million project grant from the National Science Foundation's Division of Emerging Frontiers will fund research from 2023 to 2027 under the Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074). Oregon State University will lead a collaborative effort to study the resilience of freshwater ecosystems under changing climate conditions. Researchers will test how biodiversity and individual variation among species affect an ecosystem's ability to withstand environmental changes. They will conduct...
This $548,713 federal Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) supports research to understand how shifting environmental conditions and loss of foundation species impact ecosystem functioning in rocky intertidal communities. The project integrates controlled laboratory studies, field experiments, and modeling to characterize community thermal performance and drivers of ecosystem metabolism under varying pH and disturbance regimes. The award...
This five-year, $229,571 project grant from the National Science Foundation's Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) will fund research examining the impact of climate change on functional biodiversity in Lake Tanganyika, Africa. Led by Brown University, the project will use sedimentary records to model historical community structures and functions under different climate change scenarios. Researchers will assess open water and benthic communities using geochemical, fossil, and genomic tools....
This $268,385 National Science Foundation project grant funds research at the University of Connecticut to study the impact of climate change on biodiversity in Lake Tanganyika, Africa. The university will use sedimentary records to model historical community structures and functions under different climate change scenarios. Genetic, geochemical and fossil tools will assess open water and benthic communities, and key organisms' physical and physiological responses. The results will help...
This $226,008 National Science Foundation project grant supports research on the impact of climate change on functional biodiversity in Lake Tanganyika, Africa. Funded under the Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074), this five-year award to the University of Arizona will use sedimentary records to model historical community structures and functions under climate change scenarios. Researchers will assess open water and benthic communities using geochemical, fossil, and genomic tools to...
This Project Grant award for $345,619 was made by the National Science Foundation (NSF) under the Biological Sciences (CFDA 47.074) program to Cornell University. The funding will support a 24-month collaborative research project to investigate how sea level rise and increased coastal salinization are affecting amphibian species (frogs and toads) in the Gulf and Atlantic coastal regions. The project will use an experimental approach to identify life-stage specific mortality rates from salt...
This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) aims to investigate the movement of key elements such as carbon, nitrogen, and phosphorus through coral reef fish communities in Belize. The $672,065 grant awarded on September 1, 2024 will fund research to uncover the origin and flow of these vital elements, as well as reveal relationships between benthic structural complexity and elemental fluxes across different spatial scales. The project...
This National Science Foundation (NSF) Project Grant award under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) will quantify the temporal patterns and drivers of fish-mediated ecosystem functions, such as biomass production, nutrient cycling, and piscivory, across six European Large Marine Ecosystems over a 40-year period. The $393,925 award to the University of North Carolina at Wilmington will integrate fish monitoring data, bioenergetics modeling, and statistical inference to map the spatiotemporal...
