This National Science Foundation (NSF) Project Grant under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) provides $738,152 in funding to the University of Massachusetts to conduct research on understanding how marine life will respond to changing ocean conditions, particularly the effects of rising temperatures on predator-prey interactions. The key objectives of this 5-year project are to: 1) measure how temperature affects the physiology and relative thermal performance of native and invasive...
The National Science Foundation (NSF) awarded a $802,385 Project Grant under the Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) to the University of Massachusetts, through its Office of Grant & Contract Administration, for a 4-year research project. The project aims to examine the feedback between the physiological performance and social foraging behavior of wintering songbird populations. The research will: (1) quantify the effects of physiological variation on social network stability; (2)...
This two-year, $486,243 National Science Foundation Project Grant under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) will support research examining the impacts of ocean warming and thermal stratification on seabird populations globally. The Farallon Institute will analyze existing long-term data on plankton, small fish, and seabird breeding success across oceans to develop models linking thermal stratification at various ocean depths to productivity. Results aim to identify seabird species best suited...
This $647,709 federal Project Grant award, funded by the National Science Foundation (NSF) Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074), supports research conducted by the University of Massachusetts (UMass) to study interindividual variation in acclimatization capacity and its impact on animal populations' responsiveness to climate change. The key objectives are to: (1) quantify patterns of physiological flexibility in the dark-eyed junco songbird across a temperature variability gradient; (2)...
The National Science Foundation (NSF) awarded a $856,412 Project Grant under the Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) to the Board of Regents of the University of Nebraska (the University) to conduct research exploring the feedback between the physiological performance and social foraging dynamics of wintering songbirds. The project aims to: (1) quantify the effects of physiological variation on social network stability in response to ambient temperature changes; (2) experimentally...
The Board of Regents of the University of Nebraska was awarded a $918,907 Project Grant from the National Science Foundation Division of Integrative Organismal Systems. This funding supports research under the Biological Sciences federal grant program (CFDA 47.074) to evaluate the effect of predation on thermal adaptation in response to climate change. Specifically, the University of Nebraska will subject genetically diverse populations of Paramecium species to predation risk and warming, then...
The National Science Foundation (NSF) awarded a $739,066 Project Grant to Duke University to examine how a model one-celled organism, Tetrahymena thermophila, adapts to changing temperatures. The funded research, part of NSF's Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074), aims to resolve critical gaps in understanding how rapid global climate change may affect the evolution of protist growth rates and respiration, with potential implications for both climate change and public health. The 5-year...
This National Science Foundation (NSF) Polar Programs (CFDA 47.078) Project Grant award provides $666,910 to The Research Foundation For The State University Of New York, doing business as Stony Brook University, to study the environmental drivers of giant petrel energetics and implications for population trends and predation pressure in the Southern Ocean. The project aims to develop a mechanistic model linking environmental variability in wind and sea ice with foraging energetics of giant...
This National Science Foundation project grant award of $574,372 provides funding from September 1, 2022 to August 31, 2024 to develop and test a new acoustic monitoring method for remotely estimating animal population sizes under the Biological Sciences federal grant program (CFDA 47.074). The University of New Hampshire will use sound to track population changes over time for Adélie penguins and gray bats. The goals are to reduce hands-on effort for counting animals, increase the frequency...
This $664,796 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) supports a collaborative research project that aims to investigate the vulnerability of cutthroat trout predators and tailed frog prey in mountain streams of the U.S. Pacific Northwest to climate change impacts. The research team at Colorado State University will leverage cutting-edge genomics, physiology, and computational modeling to assess thermal adaptation, adaptive capacity,...
