The National Science Foundation (NSF) awarded a $161,665 Project Grant under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) to the Old Dominion University Research Foundation (Odurf) to investigate the magnitude and drivers of cold-season water and carbon export in North Atlantic salt marshes. The project aims to (1) monitor soil temperatures, groundwater, and surface water levels, salinity, and temperature in four salt marshes between Massachusetts and Nova Scotia; (2) quantify groundwater discharge...
This National Science Foundation (NSF) Project Grant award under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) is providing $543,159 to the University of California, Davis to conduct research on seagrass biogeochemistry and sedimentary alkalinity production in coastal carbon cycling. The research will quantify sediment alkalinity fluxes and investigate the biogeochemical processes controlling them across two contrasting seagrass ecosystems. This work aims to improve understanding of alkalinity and...
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 three-year, $489,998 project grant from the National Science Foundation Division of Ocean Sciences aims to advance understanding of lateral carbon export from salt marshes. Under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050), which supports basic research in the atmospheric, earth, and ocean sciences, the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution will investigate drivers of dissolved inorganic carbon, dissolved organic carbon, and total alkalinity fluxes across six New England marsh sites. Researchers...
This $499,225 National Science Foundation award under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) will fund a collaborative research project between Old Dominion University Research Foundation and the United States Department of Geological Survey to decipher drivers and variability in salt marsh lateral carbon export. Over three years, the researchers will investigate how elevation within the tidal frame influences dissolved inorganic carbon, total alkalinity, and dissolved organic carbon export...
This National Science Foundation (NSF) award under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) will support a collaborative research project to assess the role of seagrass biogeochemistry and sedimentary alkalinity production in coastal carbon cycling and marine carbon dioxide removal strategies. The $250,751 grant awarded to the Georgia Southern University Research & Service Foundation Inc. will fund research to quantify sediment total alkalinity fluxes and investigate the biogeochemical...
This National Science Foundation (NSF) Project Grant under CFDA Program 47.050 - Geosciences provides funding of $151,952 to Temple University for a collaborative research project studying the transformation of soil minerals in estuarine wetlands. The project aims to investigate how estuarine water chemistry controls the rate and end-products of this geochemical process, with a focus on the New Jersey Meadowlands area. The research involves incubating common soil minerals in the wetland...
This $329,272 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) will fund research to investigate the impacts of sea level rise on stemflow dynamics and associated hydrological and biogeochemical processes in coastal forests along the Atlantic seaboard. The University of Delaware, as the prime awardee, will use field measurements, laboratory analyses, and statistical modeling to understand how changes in stemflow (precipitation channeled down tree...
This $211,792 federal Project Grant awarded by the National Science Foundation (NSF) Geosciences program supports research to improve models of river chemistry and the global alkalinity cycle. The project, titled "BALANCING THE GLOBAL ALKALINITY CYCLE BY IMPROVING MODELS OF RIVER CHEMISTRY," is being conducted by William Marsh Rice University in Houston, Texas. The research aims to develop new analysis approaches to separate the effects of flow paths and flow rates on river water...
This National Science Foundation (NSF) Project Grant award under the Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) provides $109,866 to the University of North Texas to conduct a multi-proxy study to discriminate between marine and terrestrial sediments in coastal wetlands. The research aims to improve understanding of the relative contributions of marine and terrestrial sources to compound flooding events caused by hurricane impacts, which have intensified due to climate change. The study will employ...
