This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) supports collaborative research to assess the role of bacterioplankton as sources of vitamin B1 and related compounds in the surface ocean. The $335,126 award to Wake Forest University covers a project period from January 1, 2025 to December 31, 2027. The key objectives are to use culture-based experiments and chemical analyses to: 1) estimate the amount of vitamin B1 and related compounds...
North Carolina State University will receive $574,051 in funding from the National Science Foundation over a three-year period to conduct research on vitamin B1 limitation and advantageous use of B1-related compounds by marine bacterioplankton. This Project Grant was awarded on August 1, 2021 with a completion date of July 31, 2024. The funding supports basic research within the NSF's Geosciences program (CFDA #47.050), which aims to strengthen understanding of the integrated Earth system...
The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill will conduct collaborative research on vitamin B1 limitation and advantageous use of B1-related compounds by marine bacterioplankton under a three-year, $378,247 National Science Foundation Project Grant. The research supports the NSF Geosciences program's goal of expanding fundamental knowledge of the integrated Earth system through basic research in atmospheric, earth, and ocean sciences. Specifically, the university will investigate how marine...
This National Science Foundation (NSF) Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) Project Grant award provides $245,406 to Florida State University (FSU) to study the effects of SUP05 cells and viruses on nitrogen cycling in marine oxygen minimum zones (OMZs). The key products and services to be delivered under this 3-year project include: Through a combination of in situ measurements, DNA/RNA sequencing, and laboratory experiments, the project is evaluating how interactions between SUP05 bacterial cells...
This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) provides $1,153,105 to the University of Maryland Center for Environmental Science (UMCES) to conduct collaborative research on the role of viruses in the cycling of organic matter and energy flow within temperate marine ecosystems. The project aims to use isotope tracing and microbial food web models to quantify the impact of "virovory" - the grazing of virus particles by marine organisms...
This $408,738 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) supports collaborative research to investigate the effects of SUP05 bacterial cells and the viruses that infect them (phages) on nitrogen cycling in marine oxygen minimum zones. The project is led by the University of Washington, and aims to detail the combined impact of SUP05 cells and their associated phages on nitrogen transformation and loss processes in these ocean regions. Through a...
The National Science Foundation (NSF) awarded a $449,462 Project Grant under the Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) to the University of South Florida (USF) to study the effects of SUP05 cells and viruses on nitrogen cycling in marine oxygen minimum zones. The project is evaluating how the interactions between SUP05 bacteria and the viruses that infect them impact nitrogen transformations and loss processes in these ocean regions. Through a combination of in situ measurements, DNA/RNA sequencing,...
This $300,785 federal Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) supports a research project to characterize the chemical composition and bioavailability of dissolved organic matter released by marine nitrifying microorganisms. The project aims to determine how this material contributes to carbon cycling in the deep ocean, which may help improve biogeochemical models and inform potential marine carbon dioxide removal activities. The research will...
This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) provides $454,006.00 to the University of Tennessee to conduct collaborative research on constraining virus loss and carbon and nitrogen flow through virovory in temperate marine ecosystems. The project uses isotope tracing and microbial food web models to quantify how virovory, the direct transfer of nutrients and energy up the food web through grazing on virus particles, impacts the cycling of...
This National Science Foundation (NSF) Project Grant award under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) provides $665,899 to the University of New Hampshire (UNH) to research the impact of plastic-derived dissolved organic carbon (PDOC) on ocean biogeochemistry and the biological carbon pump. The project will utilize a combination of laboratory experiments, field sampling, and numerical modeling to explore how bacteria consume PDOC and compete with phytoplankton for key nutrients like nitrogen...
