This $408,738 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) supports collaborative research to investigate the effects of SUP05 bacterial cells and the viruses that infect them (phages) on nitrogen cycling in marine oxygen minimum zones. The project is led by the University of Washington, and aims to detail the combined impact of SUP05 cells and their associated phages on nitrogen transformation and loss processes in these ocean regions. Through a...
This National Science Foundation (NSF) Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) Project Grant award provides $245,406 to Florida State University (FSU) to study the effects of SUP05 cells and viruses on nitrogen cycling in marine oxygen minimum zones (OMZs). The key products and services to be delivered under this 3-year project include: Through a combination of in situ measurements, DNA/RNA sequencing, and laboratory experiments, the project is evaluating how interactions between SUP05 bacterial cells...

This Project Grant award of $454,006 from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) supports collaborative research to investigate the role of viruses in the cycling of organic matter and energy transfer in temperate marine ecosystems. The research team, led by the University of Tennessee, will use laboratory incubations and mathematical models to quantify the impact of "virovory" - the direct transfer of nutrients and energy through grazing on virus particles...
This $300,785 federal Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) supports a research project to characterize the chemical composition and bioavailability of dissolved organic matter released by marine nitrifying microorganisms. The project aims to determine how this material contributes to carbon cycling in the deep ocean, which may help improve biogeochemical models and inform potential marine carbon dioxide removal activities. The research will...
The University of Massachusetts Dartmouth received a $336,586 Project Grant from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) to conduct collaborative research on deciphering the mechanisms of marine nitrous oxide (N2O) cycling. The research team, which includes one postdoctoral investigator, two graduate students, and several undergraduates, will use stable isotopes, molecular markers, and in-situ rate measurements to study N2O production and consumption in the...
