This federal Project Grant award from the Department of Energy's Office of Science Financial Assistance Program (CFDA 81.049) in the amount of $999,603.00 will fund research on the effects of shifting temperate conifer forest vegetation regimes on above- and belowground carbon and nitrogen cycling. The award, effective September 1, 2024 through August 31, 2025, will be performed by the University of Wisconsin System, specifically the University of Wisconsin - Madison. This research aims to...
This $112,967 National Science Foundation Project Grant through the Integrative Activities program will fund research into the impacts of climate change on yellow-cedar trees in Alaska. Led by the University of Alaska Fairbanks in collaboration with the University of Arizona, the project aims to test the hypothesis that frost damage to yellow-cedar roots results in drought stress and mortality. Researchers will apply quantitative wood anatomy methods to analyze tracheid cell structure in...
This federal Project Grant award of $991,094.00 from the U.S. Department of Energy's (DOE) Office of Science Financial Assistance Program (CFDA 81.049) supports research at the University of California, Irvine (UCI) on the role of plant-mycorrhizal relationships in forest loss following wildfires. The research project will be conducted from Sep 1, 2024 to Aug 31, 2026. The DOE's Office of Science is the Nation's largest federal sponsor of basic research in the physical sciences, supporting...
This $203,991 project grant from the National Science Foundation Division of Polar Programs' Polar Programs federal grant program (CFDA 47.078) will fund research tracking divergent warming and tree growth patterns at Arctic treeline forests through February 2025. The University of Arizona will leverage existing tree ring data and assess current hypotheses for divergence between temperature variability and growth rates observed in boreal forests since the mid-20th century. Researchers will use...
This $383,639 National Science Foundation project grant through the Polar Programs federal grant program (CFDA 47.078) will fund research tracking divergent warming and tree growth patterns in Arctic treeline forests of northern North America. The three-year award made to Columbia University on March 1, 2022 will leverage a large tree-ring data compilation and statistical/modeling techniques to assess current hypotheses for divergence between temperature variability and tree growth rates...
This $185,538 federal Project Grant award, funded by the National Science Foundation's Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050), supports collaborative research to resolve uncertainty in past radiocarbon (Δ14C) spikes recorded in tree rings. The project aims to better understand how different tree species and latitudes affect the storage and timing of carbon uptake, which impacts the precision of these environmental records for studying extreme solar events. By conducting field experiments and modeling...
The Department of Energy's Office of Science Financial Assistance Program (CFDA 81.049) awarded a $999,036 Project Grant to the University of Mississippi on September 1, 2024 to investigate how plant-associated microbes mediate vegetation shifts in response to interactive global change factors in phosphorus-limited dry forest systems. The project will explore the role of plant-associated fungi in mediating vegetation and process shifts in these ecosystems under the influence of global change....
The Department of Energy's Office of Science awarded a $999,990.00 Project Grant to the University of Massachusetts under the Office of Science Financial Assistance Program (CFDA 81.049). The grant, titled "From Rhizosphere to Forest: Scaling Shifts in Plant-Microbe Interactions in Infected Eastern Hemlocks to Predict Changes in Ecosystem Carbon and Nitrogen Cycling," will fund research to investigate how plant-microbe interactions in infected eastern hemlocks impact ecosystem carbon...
