This Project Grant award of $619,816, provided by the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) under the Assistance to State Water Resources Research Institutes program (CFDA 15.805), will fund research to explore the biogeochemical effects of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) in constructed wetlands. The key objectives of the 3-year project are to: 1) identify the impacts of biogeochemical processes on PFAS water treatment in wetlands, 2) determine the implications of plant uptake and...
This $558,005 Project Grant award from the U.S. Geological Survey under the Assistance to State Water Resources Research Institutes program (CFDA 15.805) will fund a 3-year study on the occurrence, bioaccumulation, and biomagnification of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) in natural and constructed wetlands. The key objectives are to: 1) understand if PFAS concentrations increase through the wetland food chain and evaluate the ability of wetlands to remove these chemicals; 2)...
This Project Grant from the U.S. Geological Survey, under the Assistance to State Water Resources Research Institutes federal program (CFDA 15.805), provides $500,000 to the University of Wisconsin-Madison from December 2022 through December 2025. The funding supports research to quantify per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) bioaccumulation and potential health impacts in economically important plants and animals associated with aquatic ecosystems in ceded territories of the Great Lakes...
The US Geological Survey, through its Assistance to State Water Resources Research Institutes federal grant program (CFDA 15.805), awarded Purdue University $487,497 for its project titled "PFAS Precursor Bioaccumulation and Biotransformation in Agriculturally Impacted Wetland Food Webs." The project will study the in vivo transformation and ecological effects of polyfluoroalkyl and perfluoroalkyl substance (PFAS) precursors in wetlands located in Indiana. Specifically, the researchers...
This $558,346 Project Grant awarded by the U.S. Geological Survey under the Assistance to State Water Resources Research Institutes program (CFDA 15.805) supports research at the University of Nebraska on the release, adsorption, and biotransformation of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) at the water-sediment interface in agricultural watersheds. The key objectives are to: 1) measure the kinetics of PFAS release from decomposed biosolids and adsorption to sediments under anaerobic...
This $558,203 federal Project Grant awarded by the U.S. Geological Survey under the Assistance to State Water Resources Research Institutes program (CFDA 15.805) supports research at Purdue University to study the bioaccumulation and biotransformation of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) in aquatic environments. Key project activities include: Integrating microfluidic sensors for rapid PFAS detection, field sampling of biofilms and macroinvertebrates, identifying factors influencing...
This Project Grant award, totaling $1,599,522, was provided by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) through the Science to Achieve Results (STAR) Research Program (CFDA 66.509). The goal of this project is to enhance the understanding of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) uptake and accumulation in plants grown in subsurface tile-drained fields irrigated with rural sewage effluent, explore the physical and molecular mechanisms that govern PFAS uptake and accumulation in...
This federal Project Grant award, provided by the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) under the Assistance to State Water Resources Research Institutes program (CFDA 15.805), will fund a $620,000 interdisciplinary research project at Colorado State University (CSU) focused on understanding the impact of diel (daily) cycling on the fate of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) precursors in a diatom-dominated constructed wetland. The project aims to identify PFAS precursor presence, fate, and...
This $500,000 project grant from the US Geological Survey under the Assistance to State Water Resources Research Institutes federal grant program (CFDA 15.805) will fund a multi-year study at the University of New Hampshire investigating per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) in New Hampshire lake ecosystems. The study aims to determine concentrations and profiles of 40 PFAS compounds, including precursors and terminal compounds, in sediments, water, and benthic and pelagic organisms in...
This Project Grant award from the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) under the Assistance to State Water Resources Research Institutes program (CFDA 15.805) provides $558,345.00 to Purdue University to investigate the distribution, fate, and impacts of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) in the Lake Michigan ecosystem. The project will assess PFAS accumulation in tissues of various fish species through lab experiments and field sampling, as well as measure biochemical and transcriptomic...
