This $900,114 National Science Foundation project grant supports the Biodiversity Forecasting Initiative (BIOFI) led by the University of Arizona from September 2022 through August 2025. The goal of BIOFI is to advance scientists' ability to forecast biodiversity and ecosystem functioning globally under changing environmental conditions. Key products and services include developing an open-source curriculum in biodiversity data science to train the next generation of scientists. The project also...
The National Science Foundation awarded a $2.99 million project grant to the University of Colorado Boulder under the Biological Sciences (47.074) federal grant program. The award will fund the RAMP - Understanding and Preserving Tropical Biodiversity on a Changing Planet program from August 2022 through July 2026. The program will recruit 36 post-baccalaureate fellows underrepresented in STEM fields for hands-on research experiences at the Smithsonian Tropical Research Institute in Panama....
The National Science Foundation (NSF) awarded a $2,986,439 Project Grant under the Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) to the University of Kansas Center for Research Inc., a non-profit subsidiary of the University of Kansas. The grant, titled "RAMP: MAKING MEANINGFUL CONNECTIONS: FOSTERING THE INTEGRATION OF BIODIVERSITY PATTERNS WITH GENETIC EVOLUTIONARY MECHANISMS (BIOGEM)", will support a multi-year research and training program focused on understanding organismal responses...
This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation (CFDA 47.076 - STEM Education) to Michigan State University provides $749,695.00 over a 3-year period from May 1, 2025 to April 30, 2028. The project aims to embed a long-term ecological research study focused on seasonal changes in local campus trees into a large-enrollment introductory biology lecture course. This will provide undergraduate students with access to mentored research experiences to enhance their training and skills...
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...
This Project Grant award of $116,555.00 from the National Science Foundation's Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) will fund a research project at the University of Arizona to investigate biological invasions across spatial scales. The project aims to compile an open-access database of species invasion data from the National Ecological Observatory Network and analyze it using advanced statistical methods. The goal is to better understand the relative roles of propagule pressure, abiotic...
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 $299,551 federal Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) supports research at Colorado State University to evaluate the impacts of plant biodiversity on the productivity of grasslands and forests across the United States.
