This Project Grant award for $388,527, provided by the National Science Foundation (NSF) Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050), supports research on how salt affects the photodegradation of dissolved organic matter (DOM) in aquatic ecosystems. The project, led by Texas A&M University-Corpus Christi (TAMU-CC), will investigate the role of salt in photochemical reactions involving DOM, which plays key ecological roles in energy transfer, metal binding, and interactions with pollutants. Experiments...
Colorado State University was awarded a $199,724 Project Grant from the National Science Foundation under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) for the period of July 1, 2021 through June 30, 2024. The grant will support collaborative research examining new roles for reactive oxygen species in mediating carbon fluxes at the terrestrial-aquatic interface. Specifically, the funding will enable investigation of how reactive oxygen species produced during microbial decomposition in soils and...
The National Science Foundation (NSF) awarded a $745,594 Project Grant under its Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) to the University of Arkansas System, specifically the University of Arkansas at Little Rock (UALR), for the project "DISES-EX: Climate Resilience and Risk Aversion within the Integrated Dynamics of a Hydro-Agricultural System."
