- This $112,302 federal Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Biological Sciences (CFDA 47.074) program will support long-term monitoring of plant community dynamics in the Colorado alpine biome over a 5-year period from March 2025 to February 2030. The project, led by the Corporation of the Rocky Mountain Biological Laboratory (RMBL), aims to advance ecological theory by assembling a comprehensive record of population and community changes in the alpine environment...
- This $158,371 Project Grant awarded by the National Science Foundation (NSF) under the Biological Sciences (CFDA 47.074) program will fund collaborative research on the integrated dynamics between plants and aphids mediated by above- and below-ground mutualisms in a rapidly warming Rocky Mountain ecosystem. The research aims to: Integrate the direct effects of temperature on aphid development with indirect effects driven by shifts in above- and below-ground ecological interactions. Assess...
- This National Science Foundation (NSF) Biological Sciences program project grant, with a total award of $193,780, supports collaborative research to understand how fluctuations in pollinator abundance affect the population dynamics of plant species. The awardee, The Corporation of the Rocky Mountain Biological Laboratory At Gothic, will conduct a long-term field experiment manipulating pollination environments for two perennial plant species. The research aims to leverage 9-11 years of...
- This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation (NSF) Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) provides $487,639 to the University of California, Berkeley to conduct long-term monitoring and research on plant community dynamics in the Colorado alpine biome.

- 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 $654,761 National Science Foundation (NSF) Biological Sciences (CFDA 47.074) Project Grant awarded to the Chicago Horticultural Society's Chicago Botanic Garden division will investigate how bee populations respond to rapid environmental changes. The researchers will use in-situ temperature manipulations and cross-population comparisons to measure the direct and indirect effects of climate change, including impacts mediated through changes in food resources and nest parasites, on vital...
- This $841,120 federal Project Grant awarded by the National Science Foundation (NSF) Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) supports collaborative research by Colorado State University to investigate the physiology, phenology, and phylogeny of grass species. The research aims to develop improved mechanistic models for predicting how grass distributions may respond to changing environmental conditions, such as rising temperatures and precipitation patterns. Specifically, the project will use...
