- This $692,182 Project Grant was awarded on July 1, 2025 by the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) to the University of Wyoming (UW) to conduct research on the impact of drought and fire on western U.S. forests. The key objectives are to 1) quantify the adaptive traits of tree species in the west and publish the results in an open-access database, and 2) quantify the effects of these traits on tree demographic rates in response to changing drought and...
- This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) will support collaborative research to investigate the effects of global change agents on tree reproduction in the North American boreal forest. The $559,542 award, effective August 15, 2025 through July 31, 2029, will be performed by the University of Connecticut. The research aims to advance understanding of how abiotic factors like CO2 levels, temperature, water availability, and...
- This Project Grant award, funded by the National Science Foundation (NSF) Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074), aims to improve understanding of how forest structure and function influence "ecological climate" - the climate experienced by organisms within forest canopies. The $424,492 project, running from August 2024 to July 2028, will integrate data from the National Ecological Observatory Network (NEON) into advanced forest canopy models to evaluate how forest diversity...
- This Project Grant from the National Science Foundation's Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) provides $472,614 to Cornell University from July 2022 through June 2026 to study the impacts of severe drought on tropical forest post-disturbance recovery. Specifically, the researchers are conducting a rainfall manipulation experiment in a forest in Puerto Rico that is recovering from Hurricane Maria in 2017. The project aims to characterize and predict forest resilience to climate change by...
- The National Science Foundation (NSF) awarded a $240,000 Project Grant under the Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) to support a postdoctoral fellowship in biology focused on the evolution of masting as a mechanism for forest resilience under climate change. The 3-year fellowship will fund research to identify genetic variants associated with reproductive traits in two pine species, examine how these variants change over time and terrain in response to temperature gradients, and determine...
- The National Science Foundation (NSF) awarded a $718,324 Project Grant under the Biological Sciences (CFDA 47.074) Federal Grant Program to the University of Wyoming (UW) for the "IMPACTS OF ENVIRONMENTAL FILTERING VERSUS SPECIES INTERACTIONS ON PERSISTENCE AND COEXISTENCE IN A WARMING WORLD" research project. This 5-year initiative, beginning September 1, 2025, aims to improve understanding of how different temperature regimes alter ecological interactions at multiple scales. The...
- This National Science Foundation Project Grant award of $293,033 provides funding from January 1, 2023 through December 31, 2025 to examine how plant diversity impacts the resilience of forests to climate change. The award is made through the Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) to The Research Foundation for the State University of New York on behalf of the State University of New York College of Environmental Science and Forestry. The project will analyze field data, forest inventories,...
- The National Science Foundation (NSF) Biological Sciences (CFDA 47.074) Federal Grant Program has awarded a $469,943 collaborative research project grant to the University of Oregon to investigate the effects of global change agents on tree reproduction across the North American boreal forest. The 4-year project, with an award date of August 15, 2025 and ultimate completion date of July 31, 2029, will study how factors like CO2 levels, temperature, water availability, nitrogen deposition, and...
- This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation (NSF) Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) supports collaborative research to investigate how prior disturbances affect the resistance of forest ecosystems to subsequent ice storm events. The $153,106 award to the University of Connecticut, with a period of performance from August 1, 2025 to July 31, 2026, will leverage existing field experiments and a recent ice storm in northern Michigan to evaluate the impacts of prior...
- This Project Grant from the National Science Foundation Division of Atmospheric and Geospace Sciences supports collaborative research to generate millennial-length reconstructions of sub-annual paleoclimate and extreme events in the Greater Yellowstone Ecoregion through tree-ring methodologies. Funded under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050), the $417,494 award to the University of Louisville runs from July 1, 2023 to June 30, 2026. Key products include developing millennial-length...
