Project Grant 2341250
- This $159,804 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) will support a collaborative research study to synthesize long-term, multi-site data on the demographic responses of two tundra plant species to environmental variation across western North America. The goal is to understand how climate-driven changes in survival, growth, and reproduction of these plant populations could impact their geographical ranges. The research team at the...
- This National Science Foundation (NSF) Biological Sciences (CFDA 47.074) project grant, awarded on August 15, 2024 for $214,838, will support collaborative research to study how local adaptation and climatic extremes shape continental-scale changes in distribution and abundance under climate change. The project will use transplant experiments and long-term monitoring of two widespread tundra plant species across 29 populations in western North America. The research aims to develop...
- This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) provides $240,000 in funding over 3 years starting June 1, 2025 to investigate how an alpine plant species in the Rocky Mountains will respond and adapt to climate change. The research aims to understand how population responses to microclimate variation impact range shifts under climate change scenarios. The project will use field and greenhouse experiments, genetic analyses, and...
- 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 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation (NSF) Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) provides $487,639 to the University of California, Berkeley to conduct long-term monitoring and research on plant community dynamics in the Colorado alpine biome. The project aims to assemble a unique long-term dataset on population and community changes in response to rapid environmental changes, such as climate change, to advance ecological theory and forecasting. Key activities...
- The National Science Foundation (NSF) Biological Sciences (CFDA 47.074) Federal Grant Program has awarded a $469,943 collaborative research project grant to the University of Oregon to investigate the effects of global change agents on tree reproduction across the North American boreal forest. The 4-year project, with an award date of August 15, 2025 and ultimate completion date of July 31, 2029, will study how factors like CO2 levels, temperature, water availability, nitrogen deposition, and...
- The National Science Foundation (NSF) Division of Environmental Biology awarded a $912,952 Project Grant under the Biological Sciences grant program (CFDA 47.074) to the Regents of the University of Michigan to conduct research on the diversity, distribution, and resilience of North American plants. The primary objectives are to: 1) Assemble detailed historical and current data on trait diversity and endemism of North American plants to understand the long-term eco-evolutionary drivers of...
- The National Science Foundation (NSF) Division of Environmental Biology awarded a $799,458 Project Grant to the University of Florida (UF) for the 3-year period from January 1, 2024 to December 31, 2026. The grant is part of NSF's Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) and will fund collaborative research to integrate plant traits, phylogenies, and distributional data to forecast the risks and resilience of North American plant communities in response to climate and land use changes. The...
- This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) will support collaborative research to investigate the effects of global change agents on tree reproduction in the North American boreal forest. The $559,542 award, effective August 15, 2025 through July 31, 2029, will be performed by the University of Connecticut. The research aims to advance understanding of how abiotic factors like CO2 levels, temperature, water availability, and...
- This National Science Foundation (NSF) Biological Sciences program project grant, with a total award of $193,780, supports collaborative research to understand how fluctuations in pollinator abundance affect the population dynamics of plant species. The awardee, The Corporation of the Rocky Mountain Biological Laboratory At Gothic, will conduct a long-term field experiment manipulating pollination environments for two perennial plant species. The research aims to leverage 9-11 years of...
This National Science Foundation (NSF) Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) Project Grant award to Duke University in the amount of $116,191 will synthesize long-term, multi-decadal data collected across 40 populations of two tundra plant species in Western North America. The research aims to examine how survival, growth, and reproduction of these tundra plants respond to variations in climatic and non-climatic environmental factors at multiple spatial scales. This will enable assessments of how year-to-year variations and long-term trends in these environmental factors are likely to impact the abundance and extinction risk of the plant populations, and thus their geographical ranges. The data collected through this research will be made publicly available to support future studies on the effects of environmental changes on species' geographical range shifts. No sub-awards are planned under this grant.
