- This National Science Foundation (NSF) Project Grant awarded under the Polar Programs (CFDA 47.078) federal grant program provides $666,910 to support research on the environmental drivers of giant petrel energetics and population trends in the Southern Ocean. The project, a joint effort between the NSF's Directorate for Geosciences and the UK's National Environment Research Council, aims to better understand how mechanisms such as organism interactions and physiological traits shape seabird...
- This National Science Foundation (NSF) Project Grant award under the Polar Programs grant program (CFDA 47.078) supports a collaborative research effort to investigate how physical oceanographic processes, such as water circulation and mixing, shape the productivity of fjord ecosystems in Greenland. The $1,038,209 award, effective from September 1, 2024 to August 31, 2027, will fund field observations, computer modeling, and analysis to elucidate the linkages between physical transport...
- The National Science Foundation Division of Polar Programs awarded a $612,747 Project Grant to the University of Maryland Center for Environmental Science under the Polar Programs (CFDA 47.078) federal grant program. The grant will fund synthesis of marine time series data to detect, understand, and predict benthic community responses to rapid Arctic warming from 2023 to 2026. Specifically, the award will support analysis of multi-decadal biological and physical observation time series collected...
- This two-year, $486,243 National Science Foundation Project Grant under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) will support research examining the impacts of ocean warming and thermal stratification on seabird populations globally. The Farallon Institute will analyze existing long-term data on plankton, small fish, and seabird breeding success across oceans to develop models linking thermal stratification at various ocean depths to productivity. Results aim to identify seabird species best suited...
- This National Science Foundation (NSF) Project Grant award under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) will quantify the temporal patterns and drivers of fish-mediated ecosystem functions, such as biomass production, nutrient cycling, and piscivory, across six European Large Marine Ecosystems over a 40-year period. The $393,925 award to the University of North Carolina at Wilmington will integrate fish monitoring data, bioenergetics modeling, and statistical inference to map the spatiotemporal...
- This $194,921 federal Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Polar Programs (CFDA 47.078) will fund collaborative research to constrain and understand regional modes of variability in the Atlantic Arctic over the next two years. The overarching goal is to quantitatively study climate patterns and their long-term changes in the Atlantic Arctic and sub-Arctic regions using a variety of data sources, including meteorological measurements, historical observations, and climate...
- The National Science Foundation Division of Polar Programs awarded a $128,716 Project Grant to Point Blue Conservation Science of Petaluma, California. The grant supports collaborative research titled "Predators to Plankton - Biophysical Controls in Antarctic Polynyas" from January 1, 2022 through December 31, 2024. Under the grant, Point Blue Conservation Science will conduct research to strengthen understanding of the polar regions as part of the NSF's Polar Programs (CFDA 47.078)....
This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Polar Programs (CFDA 47.078) supports a collaborative research effort titled "ULTRA-DATA: Harmonizing At-Sea Seabird Surveys at Three Marine LTER Sites to Uncover Community Responses from the Subarctic to Antarctic." The $109,371 project, set to run from September 1, 2025 to August 31, 2028, aims to harmonize ecological data from three Long-Term Ecological Research (LTER) sites representing temperate, subpolar, and polar marine ecosystems. The research team, led by the University of Delaware, will analyze patterns in ocean conditions, plankton food resources, and seabird populations to better understand how changing ocean environments and food availability are affecting marine biological communities across different regions. The findings will provide insights to scientists and stakeholders on the impacts of global-scale environmental variability on disparate marine ecosystems.
