- This Project Grant award of $924,137 from the National Science Foundation's Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) supports research by the Bigelow Laboratory for Ocean Sciences to develop new modeling approaches to understand and predict the impacts of climate change on the critically endangered North Atlantic right whale. The key products/services to be delivered include: Developing an individual movement model to identify prey density thresholds that drive right whale foraging decisions...
- This National Science Foundation Project Grant of $123,550 awarded to the University of South Carolina, under the Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074), supports research to develop new modeling techniques to predict shifts in the foraging patterns and spatial distribution of the endangered North Atlantic right whale in response to climate change. The key products of this 3-year project include: An integrated modeling framework that combines whale movement data, prey surveys, and genetic...
- This $329,446 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) will support research to understand how ocean physics and animal social behaviors interact to drive predator-prey aggregations in the pelagic ocean. The project will focus on endangered blue whales and their krill prey, leveraging recent high-resolution observations of their behavior and physical oceanographic dynamics, as well as biophysical and evolutionary simulations. The...
- The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration awarded a $130,564.06 Project Grant to the Massachusetts Department of Fish and Game under the Unallied Science Program (CFDA 11.472) to conduct summer and fall right whale surveys in Massachusetts waters from July 1, 2021 through March 31, 2022. As the state agency recipient, the Massachusetts Department of Fish and Game's Division of Marine Fisheries will deliver the key products and services for this award, which include biological surveys...
- This $860,751 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) supports a research project conducted by the University of California, Santa Cruz (UCSC) to identify "biological hotspots" - areas of high marine productivity - in the open ocean. The project uses Northern elephant seals fitted with tracking devices as "ocean explorers" to map the 3-dimensional distribution of these hotspots, estimate fish biomass in the ocean's...
- This $137,133 Project Grant awarded by the National Science Foundation (NSF) under the Mathematical and Physical Sciences program (CFDA 47.049) supports collaborative research by the University of California, Merced and the University of Alaska Fairbanks. The research aims to reconstruct the interactions and dynamics of ancient marine ecosystems, focusing on the evolution of large marine organisms like baleen whales during periods of climate change and resource exploitation. The project will...

- The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) awarded a $440,000 Project Grant under the Congressionally Identified Awards and Projects program (CFDA 11.469) to the University of Maine System. The award, effective February 1, 2025 through January 31, 2027, aims to fill data gaps and develop a roadmap for a more dynamic approach to North Atlantic right whale acoustic research in the Gulf of Maine. Key objectives include: Identifying, developing, and lab testing monitoring...
- 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...
