This federal Project Grant award of $400,000.00 from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (CFDA 47.075) program investigates the challenges faced by farmers in adapting to environmental change and climate change. The research project, titled "Equitable Pathways to Climate-Smart Agriculture: Rethinking Adaptation as a Continuum", examines how farmers' ability to adapt farming practices varies, and the long-term impacts of adaptation on the...
This National Science Foundation (NSF) Project Grant award, funded under the Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (CFDA 47.075) program, provides $804,950 to investigate the effects of climate change on rural livelihoods, including food insecurity, health, migration, and changes to traditional practices. The award to the University of Colorado, Boulder will examine how environmental stressors impact vulnerable rural populations and whether they lead to increased social conflict or...
The National Science Foundation (NSF), through its Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences program (CFDA 47.075), awarded a $399,142 Project Grant to The Regents of the University of Colorado, to be executed from August 1, 2023 to July 31, 2026. The project aims to analyze how spatial impacts of climate change on agriculture are affected by trade and risk management strategies. Key activities include: (1) estimating trade responses to climate shocks and risks, (2) estimating planting responses...
This $198,435 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) supports a collaborative research project titled "P4CLIMATE--A Paleo Perspective on the Links Between Climate and Food Security." The project will quantitatively assess shifts in maize production in North America over the past 1,200 years by merging paleoclimate, weather generation, and crop modeling data. This research aims to understand the impacts of prolonged droughts,...
This $102,340 Project Grant, awarded by the National Science Foundation's Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (CFDA 47.075) program, will fund research investigating the motivations and environmental contexts driving the historical spread of agriculture. Key activities include: Archaeological excavations at three primary research sites to assess the relative commitment to domesticated plants versus wild forerunners, as well as analyze radiocarbon-dated plant material to clarify the pace of...
This $185,453 federal Project Grant award, provided by the National Science Foundation's Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050), supports collaborative research to quantify shifts in maize production in North America over the past 1,200 years. The research leverages paleoclimate data, weather modeling, and crop simulation techniques to understand the impacts of historical megadroughts and climate change on food production. Key activities include developing open-source software for climate field...
The University of Georgia Research Foundation, Inc. was awarded a $630,572 project grant from the National Science Foundation Division of Environmental Biology to support research titled "COLLABORATIVE RESEARCH: UNDERSTANDING SPATIOTEMPORAL DYNAMICS OF PLANT-SOIL FEEDBACKS: CONSEQUENCES FOR SHRUB-GRASS INTERACTIONS IN A DRYLAND ECOTONE." The award, made under the Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074), will fund research from June 2021 through May 2025 aimed at increasing scientific...
This Project Grant award of $284,207.00 from the National Science Foundation (NSF) Division of Behavioral and Cognitive Sciences under the Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences program (CFDA 47.075) supports research at Cornell University examining farmer decision-making processes related to climate adaptation through the adoption of new crop varieties. The key products of this 3-year project include: (1) developing a multi-scale modeling approach combining land surface modeling, satellite...
This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Biological Sciences (CFDA 47.074) program provides $210,322 to the University of Georgia Research Foundation, Inc. (UGA Research Foundation) to conduct collaborative research on how local adaptation and climatic extremes will shape continental-scale changes in the distribution and abundance of two common tundra plant species under climate change. The award will fund long-term monitoring of wild populations of Silene acaulis...
This National Science Foundation Project Grant of $711,741 awarded on October 1, 2022 will fund research and education activities advancing understanding of climate-phenology coupling through 2026. Under the Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074), the University of Michigan will develop a macrosystems framework to quantify interactions between climate and phenology across scales. Researchers will analyze phenology data globally and from the National Ecological Observatory Network to...
