- This National Science Foundation (NSF) Biological Sciences (CFDA 47.074) Project Grant award of $501,393 to Ursinus College provides funding to conduct research on the physiological traits and plasticity of the American slipper snail, an intertidal marine gastropod. The goal is to characterize how environmental variation in the intertidal zone influences the ecology, physiology, and behavior of this model organism. The project will experimentally test the physiological limits of slipper snails...
- This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation (NSF) Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) provides $1,274,370 to support collaborative research on how the world's most abundant vertebrates, lanternfishes and bristlemouths, are adapting to rapidly changing ocean conditions. The research will investigate the impacts on these crucial links in the marine food web, including changes to their populations, diets, and contribution to carbon storage in the deep ocean. The project will...
- This $200,000 federal Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) will support research to investigate long-term ecological and evolutionary responses of small mammals to environmental change across western North America and East Africa over the past 23 million years. The project, led by researchers at the Research Foundation for the State University of New York (Stony Brook University), aims to generate and analyze multi-proxy data from...
- This National Science Foundation (NSF) Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) Project Grant, awarded to New York University (NYU) on August 1, 2024, provides $552,466 in funding over a 3-year period to conduct collaborative research on the phylogeny, systematics, and adaptation of marine epizoic diatoms to endangered megafaunal hosts. The key objectives of this project are to: 1) document and describe up to 50 new diatom species living on marine animals like sea turtles, whales, and manatees;...
- This National Science Foundation Project Grant awarded under the Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) is funding a collaborative research project to investigate the relationship between surface productivity and ecological structure in marine benthic communities. The $360,460 award to the University of California, Berkeley will leverage the Panama Paleontology Project's extensive modern and fossil mollusk collections to (1) evaluate how productivity affects the energetics and trophic structure of...
- This $484,370 Project Grant from the National Science Foundation's Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) will fund research into the challenges of living small for diminutive mammals. The Field Museum of Natural History will leverage the taxonomic diversity of shrews, moles, hedgehogs, and solenodons to quantify selective pressures on vertebral bone strength and stiffness at small sizes. Researchers will use 3D imaging, computer modeling, and physical testing to assess how lumbar spines have...
- This National Science Foundation (NSF) Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) Project Grant award of $536,343 to Rollins College will investigate the effects of rising sea surface temperatures (SST) on the distribution, reproductive dynamics, and hybridization of blue mussel species (Mytilus edulis complex) in Hokkaido, Japan. The 3-year project, running from April 1, 2025 to March 31, 2028, aims to: (1) re-examine mussel species distributions after 17 years, (2) evaluate changes in mussel...
- This three-year, $1.388 million project grant from the National Science Foundation's Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) will fund research to develop integrated distribution models for approximately 100 North American mammal species. The grantee, Friends of the North Carolina State Museum of Natural Sciences, will create continental scale species distribution models using traditional museum data integrated with new camera trap and citizen science data. This will allow for analysis of...
- This National Science Foundation project grant awarded $455,766 to Oregon State University to study how climate change and human impacts have shaped small mammal communities over the last 17,000 years. The grant is part of the Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) and will fund research using the fossil and archaeological records of Paisley and Connley Caves in Oregon to estimate diversity and functional changes in small mammal populations from 17,000 years ago to present. In addition,...
