This $329,446 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) will support a 2-year research project by the Monterey Bay Aquarium Research Institute (MBARI) to investigate the role of social behavior in pelagic predator-prey interactions within open ocean ecosystems. The project aims to understand how ocean physics and animal social behaviors, specifically of endangered blue whales and their krill prey, interact to drive dynamic predator-prey...
This National Science Foundation (NSF) Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) Project Grant award of $130,222 will support the "Collaborative Research: The Albatross Re-Collection Project for a Century of Genomic Change in the Tropics" at the University of California Santa Cruz (UCSC). The goal of this 3-year project is to analyze historical and modern fish samples from the Philippines to understand how coastal fish species have adapted in response to factors like fishing and habitat...
This National Science Foundation Project Grant of $524,000 will support the development of network-based models to evaluate functional biodiversity responses to climate change and species invasions in marine biological communities. Funded under the Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074), this award reflects NSF's mission to promote biological sciences research and strengthen the scientific enterprise.
Specifically, researchers at the University of California, Davis will leverage long-term...
This National Science Foundation Project Grant of $123,550 awarded to the University of South Carolina, under the Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074), supports research to develop new modeling techniques to predict shifts in the foraging patterns and spatial distribution of the endangered North Atlantic right whale in response to climate change. The key products of this 3-year project include:
An integrated modeling framework that combines whale movement data, prey surveys, and...
This National Science Foundation (NSF) Project Grant under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) provides $738,152 to the University of Massachusetts (UMass) to investigate how rising ocean temperatures affect the interactions between predatory crabs and their blue mussel prey in the Gulf of Maine. The 5-year project, starting June 1, 2025, combines laboratory experiments on thermal physiology and species interactions with mathematical modeling to predict the ecological impacts of climate...
This $268,585 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation (NSF) Division of Behavioral and Cognitive Sciences (CFDA 47.075) supports long-term research examining human-environment interactions along the Pacific Coast. The research team from the University of Nevada, Reno will conduct archaeological surveys and excavations, radiocarbon dating, and stable isotope analysis of marine shells and fish remains to develop a chronology of coastal occupation and paleoenvironmental change...
This National Science Foundation (NSF) Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) Project Grant award, totaling $314,306, supports a postdoctoral research project at the University of California San Diego's Scripps Institution of Oceanography. The project aims to investigate the oceanographic and ecological factors affecting the abundance and distribution of mesopelagic organisms in the California Current ecosystem. Key activities include developing improved taxonomic classification of mesopelagic...
