This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) focuses on understanding how changing environmental conditions, particularly rising ocean temperatures, will impact marine ecosystems and the availability of marine resources. The $738,152 award, effective June 1, 2025 through May 31, 2030, supports an integrated approach that combines physiological assays, community-level experiments, and numerical modeling to forecast the effects of temperature on...
This $358,499 Project Grant from the National Science Foundation Division of Ocean Sciences, under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050), will fund research to understand the impact of warming on the structure and function of marine communities in the Northwest Atlantic Shelf region, including the Gulf of Maine and Mid-Atlantic Bight. The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, through its Office of Sponsored Research, will characterize the composition and features of plankton and fish...
This $635,123 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) will support research to investigate recent changes in the Kuroshio/Kuroshio Extension (KE) system in the North Pacific Ocean. The goal is to elucidate the oceanic and atmospheric processes responsible for the observed "regime shift" in the Kuroshio/KE system since 2018, including the implications for North Pacific and North American weather patterns. The research will utilize...
This $908,131 project grant from the National Science Foundation Division of Ocean Sciences, under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050), supports research to better understand how changing phytoplankton elemental use efficiencies may impact global ocean biogeochemistry as temperatures rise. A team of U.S. and U.K. researchers, led by the University of Southern California, will conduct laboratory experiments and field work to quantify the effects of temperature on nutrient elemental use...
This three-year Project Grant from the National Science Foundation Division of Ocean Sciences provides $507,547 to the University of Hawaii at Manoa to conduct research titled "COLLABORATIVE RESEARCH: ISOTOPIC INDICATORS FOR MECHANISMS OF ORGANIC MATTER DEGRADATION UNDER HIGH PRODUCTIVITY AND HIGH CARBON FLUX CONDITIONS (EXPORTS)." The research aims to develop isotopic indicators to study organic matter degradation under conditions of high biological productivity and carbon flux in...
This National Science Foundation Project Grant of $718,487 supports research into the drivers of regional climate change patterns and their implications. Funded under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050), the award runs from May 1, 2022 to April 30, 2027. The principal investigator and collaborators from multiple international institutions will use a suite of climate model experiments to further understanding of the physical mechanisms influencing sea surface temperature warming patterns in key...
This $297,369 National Science Foundation award under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) will fund research evaluating the contribution of small eukaryotes to nitrate-based new production in the North Pacific Subtropical Gyre. Over a three-year period ending November 2025, the University of Hawaii at Manoa will conduct laboratory and ship-based research to better understand how phytoplankton access subsurface nitrogen in surface waters during summer months. Researchers will sort phytoplankton...
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 $200,000 federal Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) will support research to investigate the impact of changes in seawater carbonate chemistry, such as ocean acidification, on shell formation in tropical marine bivalves. The research will be conducted at the State University of New York, College of Environmental Science and Forestry (SUNY ESF) and the University of Hawai'i, Hilo. The project aims to identify the specific carbonate...
This $715,774 federal Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) supports research to evaluate the resilience of tropical reef ecosystems to human impacts. The project is being conducted by the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) and involves field experiments in Moorea, French Polynesia to examine how the sequence of increased fishing pressure, nutrient pollution, and sedimentation affects the resistance and recovery of short algal turf...
