Project Grant 2534185
- This National Science Foundation (NSF) Project Grant award under the Polar Programs grant program (CFDA 47.078) supports a collaborative research effort to investigate how physical oceanographic processes, such as water circulation and mixing, shape the productivity of fjord ecosystems in Greenland. The $1,038,209 award, effective from September 1, 2024 to August 31, 2027, will fund field observations, computer modeling, and analysis to elucidate the linkages between physical transport...
- This $479,883 Project Grant was awarded by the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Polar Programs (CFDA 47.078) to the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution (WHOI). The project aims to help understand the evolving biophysical environment of the Bering and Chukchi Seas in the Pacific Arctic region, with a focus on modeling the past and predicting the future of harmful algal blooms. Specifically, the project will use the Regional Arctic System Model (RASM) to identify the major pathways and...
- This five-year, $565,180 Project Grant from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) supports collaborative research on the impacts of global changes on glacial fjords, ecosystems, and communities in Greenland. The awardee, Bigelow Laboratory For Ocean Sciences, will partner with Pinngortitaleriffik / Gronlands Naturinstitut to study glacial fjords, ecosystems, and local communities in Greenland through 2026. The Geosciences program aims to expand fundamental knowledge...
- This $263,129.00 Project Grant awarded by the National Science Foundation (NSF) Office of Integrative Activities establishes a long-term observational program to study phytoplankton populations, water characteristics, and nutrient concentrations in the coastal waters around Kotzebue, Alaska. The grant, funded under NSF's Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050), will support year-round monitoring at multiple sites, including through the winter ice. The data collected will provide critical insights into...
- This $879,520 National Science Foundation award through the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) funds a collaborative research project examining the implications of rapid Arctic change for fisheries and fishing communities in the western North Atlantic. Led by the Gulf of Maine Research Institute, the project builds a network to develop a climate vulnerability assessment and predictive models evaluating how changes in the Arctic cryosphere and ocean circulation affect ecosystem and fishery...
- The National Science Foundation (NSF), through its Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050), awarded a $1,159,178 Project Grant to The Trustees of Columbia University in the City of New York to establish a year-round long-term observational program studying phytoplankton populations, hydrography, and nutrient concentrations in the waters around Kotzebue, Alaska. This community-based research effort will measure water column characteristics and phytoplankton at six sites during the ice-free season and...
- This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) provides $233,888.00 to the Science Museum of Minnesota to conduct a long-term research project titled "COLLABORATIVE RESEARCH: LTREB: DYNAMICS OF EXTREME CLIMATE DISTURBANCE IN ARCTIC LAKES (DECADAL)." The project investigates how Arctic lake ecosystems rapidly transitioned to a dramatically different state following extreme weather events in West Greenland, with the goal of...
- Atmospheric & Environmental Research Inc. was awarded a $420,401 project grant from the National Science Foundation Office of Integrative Activities to conduct research titled "COLLABORATIVE RESEARCH: NNA RESEARCH: GLOBAL CHANGES, LOCAL IMPACTS: STUDY OF GLACIAL FJORDS, ECOSYSTEMS AND COMMUNITIES IN GREENLAND" from January 1, 2022 to December 31, 2026. The research is being conducted under the NSF's Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050), which supports basic research in the...
- This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) totaling $192,927 aims to develop a model-data framework to improve predictions of red tide events and their impacts on respiratory illnesses in coastal communities under changing temperatures. The research is being conducted by an interdisciplinary team at Florida State University, a leading research institution. The project will focus on the Gulf Coast region of Southwest Florida, a hotspot for...
- The National Science Foundation (NSF) Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) awarded a $300,000 project grant to the University of Toledo for the period of July 1, 2025 to June 30, 2027. The grant, titled "C2H2 EAGER: REDOX-DRIVEN MOBILIZATION AND AEROSOLIZATION OF HARMFUL ALGAL BLOOM TOXINS IN LAKE ERIE STRESSED SOILS," will investigate the hypothesis that wind-blown dust from coastal soils near Lake Erie can contain high concentrations of algal bloom-generated neurotoxins. This research...
This $299,999 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation (NSF) Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) supports exploratory research to investigate the impacts of harmful algal blooms on Arctic populations and marine ecosystems in Greenland's Ilulissat/Disko Bay region. The research team, composed of experts in Arctic environmental science, social science, and medical professionals, will conduct interdisciplinary studies to expand knowledge on how these toxic algal blooms, driven by warming air and ocean temperatures as well as reduced sea ice cover, affect human health and marine food sources for local communities that rely on subsistence fishing and hunting. The project aims to provide a better understanding of the threats posed by increasing harmful algal blooms in northern latitudes and the potential for translating the findings to other Arctic populations. The award period runs from August 2025 to July 2027 and includes significant engagement with local Greenlandic communities to learn from their first-hand experiences.
