This federal Project Grant award for $701,926 from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) provides partial support for the scientific steering committees and/or international project offices of several major international ocean science initiatives. These include the International Ocean Carbon Coordination Project (IOCCP), the Surface Ocean-Lower Atmosphere Study (SOLAS), the Integrated Marine Biosphere Research (IMBER) program, GEOTRACES, and the Changing Ocean...
The Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution was awarded a $807,034 project grant from the National Science Foundation Division of Ocean Sciences. The grant is supporting research titled "Collaborative Research: Towards a More Comprehensive Understanding of Eulerian and Lagrangian Transport of Active and Passive Tracers in the Ocean" from October 1, 2021 to September 30, 2024. The research is being conducted under the NSF's Geosciences program (CFDA #47.050), which aims to strengthen the...
This $125,327 federal Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Division of Ocean Sciences (CFDA 47.050 Geosciences) supports the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution (WHOI) in maintaining and enhancing critical oceanographic instrumentation and shared-use resources for NSF-funded researchers. The key products and services provided under this award include: Replacing cracked windows on the acoustic Doppler current profiler (ADCP) mounts on the R/V Armstrong research vessel and...
This $134,212 Project Grant awarded by the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) will support research to investigate benthic iron fluxes in the Labrador Sea, an important region for deep-water formation and biological carbon cycling. The primary awardee, the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution (WHOI), will collect sediment and pore water samples to quantify iron sources from the seafloor to the overlying ocean. They will use numerical ocean circulation models to...
The National Science Foundation Division of Ocean Sciences awarded a $378,315 Project Grant to the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution for research activities under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050). The two-year award, beginning February 1, 2022 through January 31, 2024, will support research to detect signatures of multigenerational plasticity in a marine forage fish. The Geosciences program seeks to expand fundamental knowledge and understanding of the integrated Earth system through...
This three-year, $177,799 National Science Foundation Project Grant through the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) will fund research to advance understanding of glacial-age western North Atlantic hydrography. The Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution will synthesize existing sediment property data from 30% more deep-sea sediment cores collected between 1994 and 2021. Isotopic and radiocarbon analyses of microfossils from cores spanning the upper 2 km of the region will provide new insights into...
The National Science Foundation awarded a $6.5 million Project Grant to the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) to design and construct a new generation of ocean-bottom seismographs for the U.S. academic community from October 1, 2021 to September 30, 2024. The Geosciences program aims to expand fundamental knowledge of the integrated Earth system through basic research support. Under this award, Woods Hole will deliver new ocean-bottom seismographs...
The National Science Foundation awarded a $795,643 Project Grant to the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution under the Geosciences federal grant program (CFDA 47.050). The award will fund a research project from March 2023 through February 2026 to examine recent changes in sea level and circulation around the Grand Banks region. The project aims to investigate forcing mechanisms behind observed sea level anomalies, examine connectivity of sea level change between continental shelves and open...
This Project Grant from the National Science Foundation's Division of Ocean Sciences, under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050), provides $250,743 to Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution for oceanographic instrumentation on research vessels R/V Atlantis and R/V Armstrong from April 1, 2022 through March 31, 2024. Specifically, the funding supports the acquisition of four Teledyne-RDI lowered acoustic Doppler current profilers costing $154,860 total; one Autosal salinometer and accessories from...
This $496,716 federal Project Grant was awarded by the National Science Foundation (NSF) Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) to the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution (WHOI) to conduct research on the dynamics of the meridional overturning circulation (MOC) in the global ocean. The primary objective is to develop a theoretical framework to better understand how water parcels transit from low to high latitudes as part of the MOC, a critical component of the global climate system. The research...
