- This $503,649 Project Grant was awarded by the National Science Foundation (NSF) under the Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) to the Division of Agriculture of the University of Arkansas. The project aims to quantify how salinization, which can subsidize or stress organisms, alters carbon processing across terrestrial-aquatic boundaries. Key activities include: Measuring field relationships between terrestrial and stream ecosystems across a salinization gradient through a decomposition...
The National Science Foundation (NSF) Biological Sciences (CFDA 47.074) Federal Grant Program awarded Arkansas State University (A-State) $719,800 on September 15, 2025 to support advanced research in ecotoxicology and analytical chemistry through the acquisition of a liquid chromatograph-tandem quadrupole mass spectrometer (LC-MS/MS) and desorption electrospray ionization (DESI) imaging system. The project aims to strengthen STEM education and educator development in the Northeast Arkansas region, while also enhancing public science literacy through workshops, a formal certificate program, and outreach activities such as an Earth Day collaboration with area K-12 schools and A-State undergraduate education majors. Additionally, the project will promote environmental protection, human health, freshwater conservation, pollinator health, and agricultural crop yields through major research initiatives, including studying the effects of toxicant mixtures on fish and a freshwater food chain, the distribution of promising anticancer agents within plants, and the efficiency of different water treatment methods to eliminate contaminants.
