The...

This $179,700 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Polar Programs (CFDA 47.078) will support the Distributed Biological Observatory (DBO) - a long-term collaborative research effort to observe changes in the Pacific Arctic region. The award to Trustees of Clark University will fund an array of strategies, including shipboard, autonomous, laboratory, and satellite platforms, to collect data on environmental conditions and biological communities across five transect lines in the northern Bering and Chukchi Seas. The observations will contribute to an existing marine time-series, providing expanded data on seawater freshening, warming, and impacts on prey for larger marine mammals, seabirds, fish, and shellfish. This research aims to increase understanding of how biological communities are responding to changing environmental conditions in the Arctic. The project will also support training for three graduate students and undergraduate research experiences.
