The National Science Foundation (NSF) awarded a $716,280 Project Grant under the Biological Sciences (CFDA 47.074) program to the University of Montana in Missoula, Montana. The grant funds a collaborative research project to investigate the potential impacts of climate change on the interactions between parasitic botfly larvae and high-elevation deer mice populations. The research aims to develop predictive models for how novel host-parasite dynamics may evolve under shifting environmental...
Colorado State University was awarded a $121,120 Project Grant from the National Science Foundation Division of Environmental Biology under the Biological Sciences federal grant program (CFDA 47.074) to conduct research from June 1, 2022 through May 31, 2023. The award will support research to test the mechanisms and consequences of an adaptive response to a catastrophic fire and heatwave in stream frogs. Specifically, the researchers will measure physiological, genetic, and other changes that...
The National Science Foundation (NSF) awarded a $749,924 project grant under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) to the University of Wyoming for the project "DISES-EX RAINBOWS ON THE HORIZON: UNDERSTANDING THE DYNAMICS OF INTEGRATED CLIMATE, RIVER, TROUT, TOURISM, AND POLICY SYSTEMS IN THE MOUNTAIN WEST." The project examines the socio-ecological system of climate, hydrology, fisheries ecology, and the linked human systems of outdoor recreation, tourism livelihoods, and...
This $671,535 Project Grant awarded by the National Science Foundation (NSF) Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) supports research examining the recovery trajectories of prey communities after the removal of non-native predator species, such as fish, from mountain lakes in the Sierra Nevada region of California. The key objectives are to elucidate the connections between taxonomic and functional recovery of these ecosystems, identify indicators of community vulnerability based on...
This National Science Foundation (NSF) Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) Project Grant, awarded on June 1, 2025, provides $738,152 to the University of Massachusetts to integrate thermal physiology and species interactions to forecast the community response to environmental change. The key objectives are to: 1) use physiological assays to compare the thermal performance of native and invasive predatory marine invertebrates and their prey, 2) measure temperature-dependent predation, intraguild...
This National Science Foundation project grant under the Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) provides $515,158 to The University of Texas at San Antonio from October 2022 to September 2025. The award will support research to develop next-generation species distribution models that integrate organism-level bioenergetic budgets with community-level predator-prey interactions.
