- The National Science Foundation (NSF) Division of Ocean Sciences awarded a $158,324 Project Grant under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) to the University of Hawaii (UH) to characterize the effects of ocean alkalinity enhancement (OAE) on coral reef ecosystems and atmospheric carbon dioxide. The research project aims to: 1) quantify the dissolution rate of olivine minerals used in OAE and their impact on reef communities and carbon dioxide levels; 2) develop biogeochemical models to predict...
- The University of California San Diego (UCSD) Scripps Institution of Oceanography was awarded a $875,891 Cooperative Agreement from the Department of Commerce National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) under the Ocean Acidification Program (CFDA 11.017). The 3-year project focuses on developing and testing a low-cost, low-energy system to capture atmospheric CO2 and convert it into alkaline salts for ocean alkalinity enhancement. The research team will construct a pilot system,...
- This federal Cooperative Agreement award by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) under the Ocean Acidification Program (CFDA 11.017) provides $147,843 to a research team led by scientists at the University of Louisiana at Lafayette and North Carolina State University. The project aims to study a range of phytoplankton, harmful algae, and biological processes during the GOMECC cruise in the Gulf of Mexico in the summer of 2025. Key activities include collecting water...
- This three-year, $408,968 National Science Foundation project grant funds research at the University of Chicago to improve estimates of ancient ocean pH and atmospheric carbon dioxide concentrations through analysis of boron isotope ratios in halite evaporites. The researchers will investigate boron behavior in halite formations to determine boron hosting phases like fluid inclusions or trace minerals. Experimentally precipitated halites, natural salt cores, and a 36 million year old marine...
- This $200,000 federal Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) will support research to investigate the impact of changes in seawater carbonate chemistry, such as ocean acidification, on shell formation in tropical marine bivalves. The research will be conducted at the State University of New York, College of Environmental Science and Forestry (SUNY ESF) and the University of Hawai'i, Hilo. The project aims to identify the specific carbonate...
- This National Science Foundation (NSF) Project Grant award, funded under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050), provides $533,560 to the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution (WHOI) to develop a quantitative physicochemical framework for accurately interpreting elemental variations in coral skeletons. The key objectives are to: Construct a physicochemical model to simulate microscale (micrometer-scale) elemental variations, such as magnesium, lithium, and strontium, in coral skeletons. Develop...
- The National Science Foundation Division of Earth Sciences awarded the University of Hawaii $464,052 on August 1, 2026, under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) to conduct experimental research on elemental uptake in marine calcium carbonate minerals for paleoenvironmental applications. The project derives robust functional relationships between elemental incorporation into calcium carbonate and the physical and chemical conditions of mineral precipitation in seawater. Researchers will...
