This Project Grant award of $405,502 from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) supports a collaborative research effort to study the contribution of coastal systems to the atmospheric carbonyl sulfide budget. The project, which will be conducted by a team of researchers from institutions in the US, Germany, and Israel, includes several key components: Direct marine flux measurements of carbonyl sulfide (OCS) using an air-sea interaction tower on the US Atlantic...
This $705,728 Project Grant award, funded by the National Science Foundation's Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050), supports a collaborative research effort to study the contribution of coastal systems to the atmospheric carbonyl sulfide budget. The project, led by The Trustees of Columbia University in the City of New York, will conduct a multi-faceted analysis of marine carbonyl sulfide emissions by: Directly measuring marine fluxes of carbonyl sulfide using an air-sea interaction tower on the...
This $300,785 federal Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) supports a research project to characterize the chemical composition and bioavailability of dissolved organic matter released by marine nitrifying microorganisms. The project aims to determine how this material contributes to carbon cycling in the deep ocean, which may help improve biogeochemical models and inform potential marine carbon dioxide removal activities. The research will...
This National Science Foundation (NSF) Award under the Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) supports fundamental research to characterize the physiological and environmental cycling of abundant osmolytes, which are small carbon-containing molecules produced by marine microorganisms. The $519,767 award to the University of North Carolina at Wilmington aims to quantify how environmental conditions, such as nutrient availability and temperature, impact the abundances and cycling rates of these...
This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation (NSF) Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) provides $226,865 to the University of Delaware to collect high-resolution carbon isotope data on GO-SHIP cruises in the Indian and Pacific Oceans. The goal is to use measurements of the ratio of carbon-13 to carbon-12 in ocean carbon dioxide to constrain estimates of ocean carbon uptake and storage, including the impacts of anthropogenic carbon dioxide. The project will deploy a specialized...
This $632,314 federal Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) will support a research project led by the University of California San Diego's Scripps Institution of Oceanography. The project aims to provide a better understanding of the physical and biogeochemical processes driving carbon cycling in the equatorial Pacific Ocean. Using a combination of ocean models, autonomous observations, and satellite data, the project will characterize...
This Project Grant award of $249,221 from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Office of International Science and Engineering (OISE) program (CFDA 47.079) aims to improve the ability of oceanographers to study the marine carbon cycle. The project, a collaboration between U.S. and U.K. institutions, will make key advances towards: (i) quantifying changes in the global carbon cycle from the surface to the deep ocean, (ii) supporting the development of new ocean pH sensors, and (iii) enabling...
This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) will fund a five-year research project entitled "CAREER: Deconvolving Organic Substrates as the Critical Link between Changes in Organic Matter and Global Biogeochemical Sulfur, Carbon, and Oxygen Cycling" at The Johns Hopkins University. The $231,196 award, starting on December 1, 2024, will determine how the production of organic substrates by fermenting microorganisms impacts...
This $645,614 Project Grant awarded by the National Science Foundation's Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) supports research to uncover the processes governing the marine dissolved organic sulfur (DOS) cycle in the Pacific Ocean. The key objectives are to: 1) quantify the DOS inventory across the Pacific, 2) identify abiotic and biotic processes responsible for DOS production and removal, and 3) investigate the reactivity of DOS and its components through monthly sampling at the Bermuda-Atlantic...
This $308,515 federal Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) supports a collaborative research project to study changes in pelagic ecosystem function and their impact on the carbon cycle from the Eocene to Oligocene periods (56-33.9 million years ago). The project aims to reconstruct changes in the South Atlantic subtropical gyre ecosystem and determine how these changes affected carbonate production and preservation during a time of...

This Project Grant award, provided by the National Science Foundation's Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050), supports a collaborative research effort to analyze marine emissions of carbonyl sulfide and its contribution to the global carbon cycle. The $389,764 award will fund a multi-faceted study that combines direct marine flux measurements, dissolved gas and isotopic analysis, and data modeling. The research team, comprising institutions in the U.S., Germany, and Israel, will conduct field campaigns to continuously measure carbonyl sulfide fluxes at coastal sites in the U.S. Atlantic and Bering Sea. This work aims to significantly increase understanding of the marine sources of this trace gas, which can provide insights into the global carbon cycle. The project includes training opportunities for early-career scientists and graduate students. The award period runs from July 1, 2025 to June 30, 2028.
