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 National Science Foundation (NSF) Project Grant award for $425,311 to the Carnegie Institution for Science supports collaborative research on how winter conditions affect the ecological function of seasonally-frozen lakes. The multi-year project (11/1/2023 - 10/31/2027) will develop a comprehensive, predictive model of year-round lake ecosystem dynamics by: Conducting detailed seasonal studies of water quality, plankton populations, food webs, and organic matter cycling in 12 lakes with...
This National Science Foundation (NSF) Integrative Activities (IA) program grant awarded to Boise State University on June 1, 2024 for $243,276 will fund a 5-year research project to quantify subsurface water storage and fluxes along elevation gradients in a mountainous watershed in southern Idaho. The project will integrate geophysical data from field tests, such as seismic refraction and electrical resistivity monitoring, into hydrologic modeling to improve understanding of how water resources...
This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation (CFDA 47.074 - Biological Sciences) in the amount of $411,235 will support collaborative research to quantify the response of biodiverse freshwater ecosystems in Eastern Guatemala to abrupt and progressive environmental changes driven by rising sea levels. The research team, led by the University of Toledo, will collect sediment cores, surface sediment, fish, and water samples to generate high-resolution time series data on...
This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation (NSF) Office of Integrative Activities under the NSF Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) provides $145,352 to the University Enterprises, Inc. at Sacramento State University to develop a diverse hydrology workforce through an undergraduate hydrological research experience in a coastal California watershed. The project will engage sophomore and transfer students across three California State University campuses in a year-long learning...
This $100,000 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (CFDA 47.075) program supports a planning project to investigate how people self-organize to manage the use of natural resources. The research team at Kansas State University will apply behavioral science approaches to build communities and networks that help maintain vital natural resources, with a focus on native watershed habitat rehabilitation and maintenance in...
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 $270,754 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Biological Sciences program supports collaborative research to investigate the impacts of the ongoing megadrought in the American West on soil moisture, ecosystem carbon-water cycling, and remote sensing capabilities. The research team, led by the Trustees of Indiana University, will synthesize hundreds of long-term soil moisture measurements with remotely-sensed data and eddy covariance tower observations to...
This $793,094 federal Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Biological Sciences program will fund research at the University of Colorado to quantify how global environmental changes, such as drought and warming, impact biodiversity and ecosystem functioning. The project aims to transform understanding of the causal mechanisms by which biodiversity responds to global change drivers and how those biodiversity changes then feed back to alter productivity and other ecosystem...
The National Science Foundation (NSF), through its Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074), has awarded a $702,163 project grant to the University of Alabama. This 3-year collaborative research project, titled "COLLABORATIVE RESEARCH: NSFDEB-NERC: WARMING'S SILVER LINING?
