The National Science Foundation (NSF) Biological Sciences (CFDA 47.074) program awarded a $274,958 project grant to the American Museum of Natural History (AMNH) to investigate the first mass extinction event in the history of life - the Late Ordovician mass extinction. The research team will document patterns of extinction, biogeographic change, and morphological evolution across this mass extinction event at local and global scales by combining field-based geological research with global...
The National Science Foundation (NSF) Division of Earth Sciences awarded a $212,687 Project Grant to the Smithsonian Institution under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) to study the recovery of terrestrial ecosystems following the Cretaceous/Paleogene mass extinction event. The grant will support extensive paleontological and geochemical analyses of fossil collections and new field data from the Rocky Mountain region to reveal the patterns and timeline of how land-based life rebuilt after...
This Project Grant from the National Science Foundation (NSF) Division of Earth Sciences, under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050), will support a collaborative research project to examine how terrestrial ecosystems were rebuilt following the Cretaceous/Paleogene mass extinction event approximately 66 million years ago. The $234,197 award, with a project period from September 1, 2023 to August 31, 2028, will fund paleontological and geochemical analyses of fossil collections and new field...
This Project Grant award of $457,737 from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) will support collaborative research by the California Academy of Sciences to model marine paleocommunity dynamics across the Permian-Triassic mass extinction event 251 million years ago. The research aims to challenge uniformitarian assumptions in reconstructing ancient ecosystem food webs and test whether post-extinction communities functioned differently from those during...
This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) will fund collaborative research to develop an integrated framework for understanding the Late Devonian mass extinctions and associated changes in ocean chemistry and climate. The $231,421 award to Texas A&M University aims to: Establish a new geologic framework linking Late Devonian mass extinctions to the formation of epeiric black shale deposits across North and South America using...
This federal Project Grant award of $143,674 from the National Science Foundation (NSF) Office of Integrative Activities (CFDA 47.083) will fund collaborative research to examine how terrestrial ecosystems rebuilt following the Cretaceous/Paleogene mass extinction event approximately 66 million years ago. The research team from the College of Charleston will collect and analyze fossil, geochemical, and environmental data from three sites in the western United States to document the patterns...
The National Science Foundation awarded a $104,601 Project Grant under its Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) to The Research Foundation for the State University of New York (SUNY) at the Geneseo campus. The grant, effective November 1, 2024 through October 31, 2027, supports collaborative research to develop an integrated understanding of the Late Devonian Earth system, with a focus on ocean-climate-biosphere interactions during this critical period in Earth's history. Key objectives include: 1)...
This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) provides $130,076 to The Regents of the University of California, Berkeley (UC Berkeley) to conduct collaborative research on modeling marine paleocommunity dynamics across the Permian-Triassic mass extinction event, which occurred 251 million years ago. The project aims to reconstruct ancient marine ecosystem food webs and test assumptions about the uniformity of interspecific interactions over...
The National Science Foundation awarded a $207,000 Project Grant to support research titled "Biodiversity and a High-Resolution Recovery of Fossil Plant-Insect Associations Across the Cretaceous-Paleogene Boundary" from March 1, 2021 through February 29, 2024. This award falls under the NSF's Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074), which aims to promote progress in the biological sciences and strengthen the national scientific enterprise through increasing knowledge and...
