The National Science Foundation (NSF) awarded a $449,462 Project Grant under the Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) to the University of South Florida (USF) to study the effects of SUP05 cells and viruses on nitrogen cycling in marine oxygen minimum zones. The project is evaluating how the interactions between SUP05 bacteria and the viruses that infect them impact nitrogen transformations and loss processes in these ocean regions. Through a combination of in situ measurements, DNA/RNA sequencing,...
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).

Stanford University was awarded a three-year, $751,285 Project Grant from the National Science Foundation Division of Ocean Sciences under the Geosciences federal grant program (CFDA 47.050). The grant will fund research to quantify nitrogen fixation rates of non-cyanobacterial diazotrophs and environmental controls on their activity from April 2021 through March 2024. As part of the Geosciences program's mission to expand fundamental knowledge of the integrated Earth system through basic...
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...
This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) totaling $257,498 will support research to characterize Rhizosolenia mat ecosystems and determine whether they obtain nitrogen from nitrogen-fixing microbes in the North Pacific Subtropical Gyre. The project, led by researchers at Stanford University, aims to provide the first detailed characterization of mat-forming Rhizosolenia diatoms and their associated diazotroph communities using a...
