- The National Science Foundation (NSF) is providing a $399,959 Project Grant through its Biological Sciences (CFDA 47.074) Federal Grant Program to the University of Maine System. The grant supports a 5-year collaborative research project titled "LTREB: Dynamics of Extreme Climate Disturbance in Arctic Lakes (DECADAL)". The project aims to investigate how entire lake ecosystems in the Arctic respond to rapid and severe disturbances, such as the dramatic shift from clear, blue lakes to...
- This National Science Foundation (NSF) Project Grant award for $425,311 to the Carnegie Institution for Science supports collaborative research on how winter conditions affect the ecological function of seasonally-frozen lakes. The multi-year project (11/1/2023 - 10/31/2027) will develop a comprehensive, predictive model of year-round lake ecosystem dynamics by: Conducting detailed seasonal studies of water quality, plankton populations, food webs, and organic matter cycling in 12 lakes with...
- This $299,999 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation (NSF) Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) supports exploratory research to investigate the impacts of harmful algal blooms on Arctic populations and marine ecosystems in Greenland's Ilulissat/Disko Bay region. The research team, composed of experts in Arctic environmental science, social science, and medical professionals, will conduct interdisciplinary studies to expand knowledge on how these toxic algal blooms, driven by...
- This National Science Foundation (NSF) Biological Sciences (CFDA 47.074) project grant, awarded on August 15, 2024 for $214,838, will support collaborative research to study how local adaptation and climatic extremes shape continental-scale changes in distribution and abundance under climate change. The project will use transplant experiments and long-term monitoring of two widespread tundra plant species across 29 populations in western North America. The research aims to develop...
- This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation (NSF) Biological Sciences Program (CFDA 47.074) provides $300,663 to the Denver Museum of Nature and Science (UEI: LRYDDL8NSAC4) to conduct collaborative research on terrestrial biodiversity dynamics during the Cretaceous Thermal Maximum (KTM), a critical case study for understanding the potential impacts of global temperature rise on ecosystems. The research aims to generate freely accessible databases on temperature,...
- This five-year, $565,180 Project Grant from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) supports collaborative research on the impacts of global changes on glacial fjords, ecosystems, and communities in Greenland. The awardee, Bigelow Laboratory For Ocean Sciences, will partner with Pinngortitaleriffik / Gronlands Naturinstitut to study glacial fjords, ecosystems, and local communities in Greenland through 2026. The Geosciences program aims to expand fundamental knowledge...
- This Project Grant award of $457,275.00 from the National Science Foundation (NSF) Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) supports a collaborative research project led by Northern Arizona University (NAU) to assess the ecoclimate sensitivity of major North American biome-scale ecotones since the last ice age. The project aims to precisely map past biome distributions and quantify how far these biomes moved in response to changes in temperature and rainfall patterns as the ice sheets melted...
- The National Science Foundation (NSF) awarded a $1,539,374 Project Grant under the Biological Sciences (CFDA 47.074) program to the Regents of the University of Minnesota to advance the understanding of long-term feedbacks between plant biodiversity and ecosystem functioning in a changing environment. The 5.5-year project will collect long-term data from retired agricultural lands, prairies, savannas, and forests to develop mathematical models predicting how ecosystems respond to environmental...
- This Project Grant award of $399,996.00 from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) supports a collaborative research project to identify non-linearities in rainfall and river responses to consecutive paleogene global warming events. The research aims to provide critical insights into how the Earth's climate system responds to extreme warming, which can improve the ability to anticipate and manage risks such as flooding and extreme rainfall. The project will apply...
- This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) provides $240,000 in funding over 3 years starting June 1, 2025 to investigate how an alpine plant species in the Rocky Mountains will respond and adapt to climate change. The research aims to understand how population responses to microclimate variation impact range shifts under climate change scenarios. The project will use field and greenhouse experiments, genetic analyses, and...
