This $299,551 federal Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) supports research at Colorado State University to evaluate the impacts of plant biodiversity on the productivity of grasslands and forests across the United States. The project will use remote sensing technologies and field-based observations to characterize different facets of biodiversity and quantify their relationships with primary productivity. The research aims to...
This $297,323 Project Grant was awarded by the National Science Foundation (NSF) Division of Environmental Biology under the Biological Sciences (CFDA 47.074) federal grant program. The funding supports a collaborative research project to study how habitat structure, specifically the spatial arrangement of plants and resources, impacts avian biodiversity across local to continental scales. Using airborne and satellite Light Detection and Ranging (LiDAR) sensors, the project will explore the...
The National Science Foundation awarded a $389,774 Project Grant to Colorado State University under the Biological Sciences federal grant program (CFDA 47.074) for the period of October 1, 2021 through September 30, 2026. The grant funds a collaborative research effort titled "COLLABORATIVE RESEARCH: GCR:CAN IMPROVED ECOLOGICAL FORECASTING ACCELERATE SUSTAINABILITY TRANSFORMATION IN URBAN LIGHTING?" being conducted by Colorado State University in Fort Collins, Colorado. The research is...
This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation (NSF) Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) will support research to understand the potential role of songbirds as pollinators in North America. The total award amount is $329,069 and the project will run from February 15, 2025 to January 31, 2027. The research aims to determine what bird and environmental characteristics are associated with songbirds carrying pollen, which plant characteristics make them more likely to be visited...
This $532,655 multi-year Project Grant awarded by the National Science Foundation (NSF) Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) supports research at Utah State University (USU) to deepen the understanding of how birds respond to their environmental surroundings. The project aims to: 1) characterize the spatial scales at which hundreds of North American bird species respond to various environmental factors; 2) test hypotheses about the mechanisms generating these scale-dependent...
This $793,094 federal Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Biological Sciences program will fund research at the University of Colorado to quantify how global environmental changes, such as drought and warming, impact biodiversity and ecosystem functioning. The project aims to transform understanding of the causal mechanisms by which biodiversity responds to global change drivers and how those biodiversity changes then feed back to alter productivity and other ecosystem...
This Project Grant from the National Science Foundation's Division of Biological Infrastructure, under the Biological Sciences federal grant program (CFDA 47.074), provides $827,019 to the University of Massachusetts to develop models and algorithms for inferring bird population movements from citizen science data. Leveraging billions of bird observations from the eBird citizen science project, the awardee will create computational tools to simulate migratory routes and produce movement...
This $200,000 two-year Project Grant from the National Science Foundation's Division of Environmental Biology will fund research into the role of native and nonnative trees in structuring urban food webs. The official federal grant program is the Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074), which supports basic biological research to strengthen the nation's scientific enterprise. Specifically, the grant will support a field experiment involving the planting of 200 native and nonnative oak trees in...
The National Science Foundation awarded Colorado State University a $412,288 project grant under the Biological Sciences federal grant program (CFDA 47.074) to conduct intensive, interdisciplinary short courses on Bayesian inference for ecologists from December 1, 2021 through November 30, 2024. The grant will support workshops that promote progress in the biological sciences by strengthening participants' scientific knowledge and understanding of major problems in the field through enhanced...
This Project Grant award of $300,000.00 from the National Science Foundation (NSF) Office of Integrative Activities Program (CFDA 47.083) supports research by the Board of Regents of the University of Nebraska to investigate the relationship between environmental variation and the evolution of cooperative social groups in Australian birds. The project will leverage citizen science data and field experiments to understand how factors like temperature, rainfall, and land use impact group size...
