This 2-year grant, effective October 1, 2024, will support a postdoctoral fellowship to investigate the oceanographic and ecological factors affecting the abundance and distribution of mesopelagic organisms in the California Current ecosystem. The research aims to improve understanding of how...
- 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 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation (CFDA 47.050 - Geosciences) provides $745,396 to the University of California, Irvine (UCI) to conduct collaborative research on the nutritional ecology of diverse phytoplankton in the global ocean. The research aims to better understand how different phytoplankton species respond to variations in nutrient availability across ocean environments. Key activities include leveraging a GO-SHIP cruise to collect field samples, conducting...
- This Project Grant award of $130,222 from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) will support a collaborative research project titled "The Albatross Re-Collection Project for a Century of Genomic Change in the Tropics." The project aims to compare historical and modern fish species, focusing on the blue sprat, to understand how they have adapted to challenges such as fishing and habitat loss over the past century. Key activities include assembling...
- The National Science Foundation (NSF) awarded a $768,325 Project Grant under its Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) to the University of California, San Diego (UCSD) to conduct collaborative research on the mechanisms underlying how animals specialize for life in the deep ocean. The project will focus on studying the cell membranes of deep-sea animals, particularly ctenophores (comb jellies), to uncover the genetic and physicochemical adaptations that enable survival under the extreme...
- This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) provides $415,682 to the California State University Long Beach Research Foundation to conduct research on the effects of ocean warming on a coastal fish species. The key objectives are to: 1) quantify genetic variation in temperature response, 2) determine if local adaptation to temperature exists, and 3) assess whether evolutionary changes can occur quickly enough to impact population...
