This $542,989 project grant, awarded by the National Science Foundation's Biological Sciences (CFDA 47.074) program, supports collaborative research to investigate spatial and temporal trends in carbon dioxide and methane emissions from tropical wetlands in Brazil. The research, conducted by the Cary Institute of Ecosystem Studies, aims to: Measure greenhouse gas, soil, and vegetation carbon dynamics across a gradient of wetland saturation levels. Map seasonal and decadal changes in wetland...
This $860,741 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) will fund a collaborative research project titled "COLLABORATIVE RESEARCH: MRA: PANAM PEAT: UNDERSTANDING WATER AND CARBON CYCLING ACROSS THE PAN-AMERICAN TROPICAL PEATLAND BIOME" at Arizona State University. The overarching goal is to gain new insights into tropical peatland environments and better constrain regional and global carbon budgets. Key deliverables...
This federal Project Grant award, provided by the National Science Foundation (NSF) through its Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074), focuses on understanding the carbon cycling and methane dynamics of tropical peatlands across the Pan-American region. The $826,235 award, effective from September 1, 2024 through August 31, 2029, will enable researchers at Stanford University to conduct systematic field measurements and data analysis to gain insights into the hydrological thresholds, peat...
This National Science Foundation (NSF) Project Grant award under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) will support collaborative research to quantify the contribution of wetlands and floodplains to carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions from streams and rivers. The $300,000 award to Yale University will fund a 3-year project that combines computer modeling and field measurements to determine the magnitude, frequency, and duration of water exchange between these aquatic habitats and adjacent rivers. The...
This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation (NSF) Division of Earth Sciences under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) will fund a collaborative research effort to investigate subsurface water storage and seasonal dynamics in the Amazon rainforest and a savanna site in Brazil. The $363,098 award supports geophysical surveys, data analysis, and integrative modeling over a 3-year period from Aug 1, 2023 to Jul 31, 2026. The research, conducted in partnership with Brazilian...
This $812,787 federal Project Grant award, funded by the National Science Foundation's Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074), supports a collaborative research initiative titled "MRA: PANAM PEAT: Understanding Water and Carbon Cycling Across the Pan-American Tropical Peatland Biome." The project, led by the University of Nevada, Reno, aims to gain new insights into the structure and function of tropical peatlands across the Americas, from 20 degrees North to 20 degrees South. The...
This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation (NSF) Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) provides $285,400.00 to the University of Massachusetts to conduct collaborative research on the contribution of wetlands and floodplains to greenhouse gas emissions from streams and rivers. The goal is to determine the types of wetlands and floodplains that add the most CO2 to adjacent waterways, and under what conditions. The project includes a combination of modeling and field...
This $307,496 project grant from the National Science Foundation's Division of Environmental Biology, under the Biological Sciences federal grant program (CFDA 47.074), will fund research at the Smithsonian Institution from January 2023 through December 2025. The research aims to better understand the role of trees in the global water and methane cycles. It will examine how water and environmental factors influence methane emissions from forest soils and trees, using radon as a novel tracer....
The National Science Foundation (NSF) awarded a $523,014 Project Grant under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) to the University of Massachusetts (UMass) to develop computational models of global carbon dioxide (CO2) fluxes from inland waters. The research aims to provide robust, physically-constrained estimates of CO2 emissions from rivers, streams, lakes, and reservoirs by coupling hydrologic and hydraulic routing systems with a stream network CO2 model. The project will validate the...
This $398,984 Project Grant award, provided by the National Science Foundation's Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050), supports research to quantify the biophysical, physiological, and phenological impacts of increasing carbon dioxide (CO2) levels on vegetation and their effects on future climate change. The research utilizes the Community Earth System Model to examine the direct impacts of CO2 fertilization and stomatal closure, as well as the indirect effects of a longer growing season, on...
