The two-year award beginning August 1, 2021 will fund basic research at the University of California, Santa Barbara to enhance understanding of the integrated Earth system through expanded knowledge of atmospheric, earth, and ocean sciences....
The National Science Foundation's Division of Environmental Biology awarded The Regents of the University of California, doing business as the University of California, Berkeley, a $458,919 Project Grant under the Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074). The 3-year grant, active from January 1, 2024 to December 31, 2026, will support a collaborative research project to integrate plant trait data, phylogenetic relationships, and species distribution models to forecast the resilience of North...
This $398,984 Project Grant award, provided by the National Science Foundation's Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050), supports research to quantify the biophysical, physiological, and phenological impacts of increasing carbon dioxide (CO2) levels on vegetation and their effects on future climate change. The research utilizes the Community Earth System Model to examine the direct impacts of CO2 fertilization and stomatal closure, as well as the indirect effects of a longer growing season, on...
This $599,996 Project Grant was awarded by the National Science Foundation's Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) to Baylor University on April 1, 2024. The project, titled "Cells to Ecosystems: Fossil Xylem is the Missing Link in Reconstructing Water Use by Plants, Forests, and Global Vegetation in Deep Time", aims to establish a database of plant stem traits from fossil xylem to understand how plant communities responded to major ancient climate change events. Key objectives include...
The National Science Foundation (NSF) Division of Environmental Biology awarded a $799,458 Project Grant to the University of Florida (UF) for the 3-year period from January 1, 2024 to December 31, 2026. The grant is part of NSF's Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) and will fund collaborative research to integrate plant traits, phylogenies, and distributional data to forecast the risks and resilience of North American plant communities in response to climate and land use changes. The...
This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) provides $240,000 in funding over 3 years starting June 1, 2025 to investigate how an alpine plant species in the Rocky Mountains will respond and adapt to climate change. The research aims to understand how population responses to microclimate variation impact range shifts under climate change scenarios. The project will use field and greenhouse experiments, genetic analyses, and...
This $100,000 Project Grant award, funded by the National Science Foundation (NSF) Division of Environmental Biology under the Biological Sciences CFDA program, will support research to improve the representation of plants in ecosystem models.
