- 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...
- This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) provides $233,888.00 to the Science Museum of Minnesota to conduct a long-term research project titled "COLLABORATIVE RESEARCH: LTREB: DYNAMICS OF EXTREME CLIMATE DISTURBANCE IN ARCTIC LAKES (DECADAL)." The project investigates how Arctic lake ecosystems rapidly transitioned to a dramatically different state following extreme weather events in West Greenland, with the goal of...
- The National Science Foundation (NSF) Biological Sciences (CFDA 47.074) Federal Grant Program has awarded a $619,353 Project Grant to the University of Wisconsin System to investigate how stress-adapted microbial communities can enhance the tolerance of trees to environmental stresses like cold, heat, and drought. The 3-year project, running from December 1, 2025 to November 30, 2028, will conduct experiments to test whether microbes sourced from different climates can promote tree seedling...
- 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 National Science Foundation (NSF) Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) Project Grant award of $240,000 provides funding for a 3-year postdoctoral research fellowship to study the dynamics of the marsh-forest ecotone in the Chesapeake Bay region. The key objectives are to: Employ remote sensing techniques to track the migration rates of the leading and lagging edges of the marsh-forest ecotone. Use vegetation monitoring to explore how plant communities respond to varying migration...
- 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...
- This federal Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) provides $468,683.00 to the University of California, Berkeley to conduct collaborative research on the physiological, phenological, and phylogenetic characteristics of grasses. The research aims to develop better mechanistic models to predict how grass distributions will respond to changing environmental conditions, such as rising temperatures and altered precipitation patterns....
- The National Science Foundation Division of Environmental Biology awarded a $299,998 Project Grant to the University of Wisconsin-Madison from August 1, 2021 through July 31, 2024. The grant supports the "Rapid Assessment of the Carbon Cycle Consequences of Ecosystem Disturbances" project under the Biological Sciences (CFDA 47.074) federal grant program. The University of Wisconsin-Madison will deliver services to assess the impacts of ecosystem disturbances on the carbon cycle. The...
- 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 $159,804 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) will support a collaborative research study to synthesize long-term, multi-site data on the demographic responses of two tundra plant species to environmental variation across western North America. The goal is to understand how climate-driven changes in survival, growth, and reproduction of these plant populations could impact their geographical ranges. The research team at the...
