This Project Grant from the National Science Foundation provides $456,411 in funding to the University of Washington from February 1, 2021 through January 31, 2024. The grant supports collaborative research titled "Microscale Interactions of Foundation Species with Their Fluid Environment: Biological Feedbacks Alter Ecological Interactions of Mussels." The research is part of NSF's Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050), which aims to strengthen understanding of the integrated Earth...
The University of Virginia received a $233,058 Project Grant from the National Science Foundation under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) for research titled "COLLABORATIVE RESEARCH: MICROSCALE INTERACTIONS OF FOUNDATION SPECIES WITH THEIR FLUID ENVIRONMENT: BIOLOGICAL FEEDBACKS ALTER ECOLOGICAL INTERACTIONS OF MUSSELS" from February 1, 2021 to January 31, 2024. The grant funding will support research examining the microscale interactions between foundation species like mussels and...
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 Project Grant award of $536,343 from the National Science Foundation (NSF) Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) supports a research project at Rollins College investigating the impacts of rising sea surface temperatures on the distribution and reproductive dynamics of blue mussels (Mytilus edulis complex) in Hokkaido, Japan. The study aims to: (1) re-examine species distributions after 17 years, (2) evaluate changes in reproductive stages, and (3) investigate genetic structures of hybrid...
This $521,796 National Science Foundation project grant through the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) supports collaborative research at San Diego State University Foundation from April 1, 2023 to March 31, 2026. The research will investigate how changing ocean conditions like ocean acidification and nutrient pollution affect the growth and survival of eelgrass, a foundational species that provides valuable ecosystem services. Researchers will examine how these stressors interact with local...
The National Science Foundation's Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) awarded a $296,303 Project Grant to the University of California, Berkeley to conduct research evaluating the development, stability, and evolution of shell gravel habitats along a latitudinal gradient on the Pacific coast of North America. The project aims to assess the coevolution of benthic invertebrate communities and shell gravel habitats, quantifying processes such as shell accumulation rates, community-substrate...
This $240,000 National Science Foundation Project Grant under the Biological Sciences (CFDA 47.074) federal grant program will fund research and outreach from June 2023 through May 2026. The fellow will synthesize data on phylogenetic history, functional traits, and assemblage composition for freshwater mussels to predict how animal traits govern effects on stream carbon cycles. Specifically, the fellow will determine the relationship between mussel trait phenotypes and phylogeny, calculate...
The National Science Foundation awarded a $306,062 Project Grant to Princeton University under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) to conduct collaborative research from April 2022 through March 2025. The research aims to advance understanding of cohesive sediment transport through multiscale experiments and numerical simulations. Specifically, the university will combine nano- to microscale imaging and molecular dynamics simulations, micro- to mesoscale millifluidic experiments and...
This National Science Foundation (NSF) Project Grant under the Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) will provide $1,500,000 in funding to North Carolina State University (NC State) from August 15, 2023 to July 31, 2027. The goal of the project is to establish the fundamental physical and algorithmic building blocks for a bionic sensing system that uses the physiological and behavioral responses of freshwater mussels to monitor and assess surface water quality. Key deliverables include: a)...
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...
