This National Science Foundation (NSF) Project Grant award under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) provides $582,954 to Texas A&M University-Corpus Christi (TAMU-CC) to conduct an integrative investigation of dispersal plasticity using the clown anemonefish as a model system. The research objectives are to: 1) test the hypothesis that parents in high- and low-quality environments produce larvae with differences in morphology, behavior, physiology, and gene expression; 2) test the...
The University of Central Florida Board of Trustees Office of Research Division, doing business as UCF, has been awarded a $814,433 Project Grant from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences (CFDA 47.050) program. The 3-year grant, effective July 1, 2024, supports collaborative research to resolve and predict dispersal patterns of marine larvae using population genetic models. The project team will apply isolation-by-distance theory to estimate mean parent-offspring dispersal distances for...
This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation Division of Environmental Biology totals $721,841 to fund the project "PURSUIT: SYSTEMATICS AND SPECIES DELIMITATION OF THE CLOWNFISH-HOSTING SEA ANEMONES" from October 1, 2021 through February 29, 2024. The funding supports the Biological Sciences (CFDA 47.074) program to increase scientific knowledge of major biological issues. Under this award, the University of Alabama will conduct major field expeditions, genomic...
This federal Project Grant award of $626,837.00 from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) supports collaborative research at Stony Brook University to investigate the role of phenotypic plasticity and natural selection in the early stages of new species formation in threespine stickleback fish. The research will examine recently-established freshwater stickleback populations near Anchorage, Alaska that have diverged from their marine ancestors,...
This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) provides $598,958 to the University of Massachusetts Dartmouth to conduct collaborative research on the intergenerational effects of predation risk and resource identity on rocky shore ecosystems. The study will use field and laboratory experiments to examine how parental exposure to predation risk under different resource regimes influences offspring prey fitness, and how these intergenerational...
This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) focuses on understanding how changing environmental conditions, particularly rising ocean temperatures, will impact marine ecosystems and the availability of marine resources. The $738,152 award, effective June 1, 2025 through May 31, 2030, supports an integrated approach that combines physiological assays, community-level experiments, and numerical modeling to forecast the effects of temperature on...
This National Science Foundation (NSF) Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) Project Grant award of $119,948, with a start date of September 1, 2024 and an end date of August 31, 2027, supports research to investigate the impact of diatom-derived polyunsaturated aldehydes (PUAs) on the embryonic and larval development of ecologically and economically important forage fish species, Pacific herring and surf smelt, in the North Pacific ecosystem. The research team from the University of Maryland Center...
This National Science Foundation Project Grant award of $240,000 supports research investigating mechanisms of thermal plasticity and adaptation in a splash pool copepod from July 1, 2023 through June 30, 2026. The award is made under the Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) to further the program's goals of advancing biological sciences knowledge and understanding major problems facing the nation. Specifically, the fellow will conduct integrative research using lab-reared copepod...
This Project Grant award of $130,222 from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) will support a collaborative research project titled "The Albatross Re-Collection Project for a Century of Genomic Change in the Tropics." The project aims to compare historical and modern fish species, focusing on the blue sprat, to understand how they have adapted to challenges such as fishing and habitat loss over the past century. Key activities include assembling...
This National Science Foundation (NSF) Project Grant award, provided under the NSF Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074), will fund a Postdoctoral Research Fellowship in Biology for FY 2023. The $240,000 award supports research and training to investigate the rules governing the evolution of convergent color patterns in the clownfish-sea anemone symbiosis. The research aims to determine the ecological conditions that led to the development of the three distinct color patterns observed across...
