This federal Project Grant award of $292,970 from the National Science Foundation (NSF) Biological Sciences (CFDA 47.074) program supports research to develop a global framework for understanding and predicting how river chemistry responds to environmental changes. The goal is to better understand and predict changes in river chemistry at the global scale by analyzing publicly available water chemistry and flow data from over 450 rivers across all seven continents. The researchers will use novel...
This National Science Foundation Project Grant award of $856,624 provides funding from January 2023 through December 2025 to support research entitled "Continental-Scale Determinants of Stream Solute Spatial and Temporal Patterns." The award is made under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) to support basic research in the atmospheric, earth, and ocean sciences. Specifically, the University of Florida will leverage a continental-scale dataset across the eastern United States to...
The National Science Foundation awarded a $254,976 Project Grant to Resbonds International Corporation through the Engineering program (CFDA 47.041) to develop a digital platform for assessing water quality at urban-watershed interfaces. The platform will integrate physical data from advanced monitoring systems with artificial intelligence to serve as a scalable analytics platform using environmental, economic, and social data. It aims to help cities and utilities finance infrastructure projects...
This $211,792 federal Project Grant awarded by the National Science Foundation (NSF) Geosciences program supports research to improve models of river chemistry and the global alkalinity cycle. The project, titled "BALANCING THE GLOBAL ALKALINITY CYCLE BY IMPROVING MODELS OF RIVER CHEMISTRY," is being conducted by William Marsh Rice University in Houston, Texas. The research aims to develop new analysis approaches to separate the effects of flow paths and flow rates on river water...
The National Science Foundation (NSF) awarded a $250,000 Project Grant under the Computer and Information Science and Engineering (CFDA 47.070) program to the University of Virginia. The grant supports the development of new physics-guided graph network models to capture complex, non-stationary, and poorly observed water dynamics in freshwater ecosystems. Key innovations include new graph-based architectures, continual learning strategies, and model initialization methods that leverage...
This $372,598 Project Grant awarded by the National Science Foundation's Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) will support research to incorporate stream biogeochemistry into carbon assessment models for enhanced rock weathering, a carbon dioxide removal approach. The project aims to add biological processes like photosynthesis and respiration into a dynamic river network model to better quantify the fate of bicarbonate generated through enhanced rock weathering. This will help identify river...
This $396,079 Project Grant awarded by the National Science Foundation (NSF) Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) aims to investigate how bacteria and biofilm growth in river sediments regulate the formation of low-oxygen microzones that produce the potent greenhouse gas nitrous oxide. The University of California, Davis (UC Davis) will perform sediment column experiments, microfluidic studies, and numerical simulations to characterize the spatio-temporal dynamics of these anoxic microzones and...
This $2,646,047 federal Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Computer and Information Science and Engineering (CISE) program (CFDA 47.070) is developing a national integrated watershed evaluation framework to improve water resource management. The framework will bring together diverse hydrologic datasets and provide tools for advanced model evaluation and exploration of watershed conditions. The project, led by Princeton University, will engage a diverse community...
This National Science Foundation (NSF) Project Grant under the Convergence Accelerator program (CFDA 47.084 - NSF Technology, Innovation, and Partnerships) provides $649,984 to the Regents of the University of Minnesota, doing business as the Office of Sponsored Projects Administration, to develop a compact, customizable chemical sensing system integrated with new microsensors and data management/analytics technologies. The goal is to accurately quantify and monitor high-priority water...
This $260,103 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) will support research to better understand the linkages between subsurface water storage, flow paths, and biogeochemical nitrogen cycling in tile-drained Midwestern agricultural watersheds. The primary objectives are to quantify nitrogen source-sink strength and mass balance using a multiscale approach integrating water age measurements and nitrate isotope data. The resulting insights...
