This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation (NSF) Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) provides $1,030,074 to the Rector & Visitors of the University of Virginia to conduct research on source-sink dynamics in restored oyster populations. The project aims to resolve the patterns, causes, and consequences of temporal variation in the demography and connectivity of oyster source-sink populations in coastal Virginia. Key research activities include long-term data collection,...
This National Science Foundation (NSF) Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) Project Grant award of $334,904 to the Virginia Institute of Marine Science (VIMS) will support research on how the increasing prevalence of weedy seagrass species affects community interactions and coastal ecosystem functioning. The project will use large-scale field experiments to examine how different seagrass and bivalve species interact and impact coastal carbon cycling. The findings will enhance conservation and...
This $281,104 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation (CFDA 47.074 - Biological Sciences) to Virginia Polytechnic Institute & State University (Virginia Tech) will support a Long-Term Research in Environmental Biology (LTREB) project to quantify ecosystem predictability across daily to decadal timescales. The project will establish a real-time monitoring and data-sharing program at two drinking water supply reservoirs, collecting data on water temperature, clarity,...
This National Science Foundation (NSF) Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) Project Grant award of $240,000 provides funding for a 3-year postdoctoral research fellowship to study the dynamics of the marsh-forest ecotone in the Chesapeake Bay region. The key objectives are to: Employ remote sensing techniques to track the migration rates of the leading and lagging edges of the marsh-forest ecotone. Use vegetation monitoring to explore how plant communities respond to varying migration...
This National Science Foundation (NSF) Project Grant, awarded under the Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050), will support collaborative research to transform the understanding of how coastlines respond to shifts in storm climate patterns. The $893,081 award to Duke University, with a project period from August 2024 to July 2027, will develop new approaches to downscale global climate model outputs to forecast the waves and winds affecting specific coastlines, such as the Carolina coastline. This...
This $134,207 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) will fund collaborative research to transform the scientific community's understanding and forecasting of coastline changes in response to shifting storm climates and sea-level rise. The project will develop new techniques to downscale global climate model outputs to produce detailed forecasts of the winds, waves, and water levels affecting specific coastlines, such as the Carolina...
