REDWOODS: A hybrid wavefront sensor / science camera to demonstrate extreme exoplanet imaging at Lick observatory
Over 5000 exoplanets have been discovered to date, but only a handful of these exoplanets have been directly imaged. Direct imaging requires detecting the exoplanet’s light despite...
The boundary current system of the eastern Labrador Sea based on a decade of mooring measurements
This project seeks to analyze 10-years of data from the West Greenland mooring array in the eastern Labrador Sea that is part of the multi-national Overturning in the Subpolar Nort...
Collaborative Research: TRTech-PGR: Development and Sharing of High-Resolution In Situ 3D Cryo Workflows to Transform Plant Cell Biology
Much can be learned about how an organism functions by understanding how its cells and tissues are organized. Cells are very small and so they can best be observed with specialized...
Investigating a broadly conserved protein of unknown function and its role in pilus biogenesis
The genes found in an organism’s genome, including bacteria, encode all the proteins that organism needs to survive. However, we do not know how many of those genes function, inclu...
Collaborative Research: PurSUiT: The final frontier of vertebrate taxonomy: documenting the diversity of cryptobenthic coral reef fishes in the Indo-Pacific
‘Cryptobenthic’ reef fishes are a group of thousands of tiny (
Temporal dimension of indirect effects: Linking the order and spacing of phenologies to indirect interactions in seasonal communities.
The timing of seasonal life cycle events, such as when plants bloom or animals migrate, plays a vital role in shaping natural ecosystems. Changes in these seasonal patterns, whethe...
Sparseness and Bellman Functions in Harmonic Analysis
Harmonic analysis can be broadly described as unlocking difficult operators or functions by breaking them down into smaller, simpler parts – albeit infinitely many. The type of par...
RAPID: Risk perceptions and decision making during Hurricanes Helene and Milton
This project will explore how residents of the U.S. Gulf Coast think about disasters and how they make decisions about evacuating prior to disasters or migrating in the aftermath o...
Collaborative Research: Advanced calibration of a carbonate ion proxy
Evidence from ice cores in Antarctica has shown that the carbon dioxide (CO2) content of the atmosphere has changed systematically with Earth’s climate over the last 800,000-years,...
NSF-ANR MCB/PHY - MechaLINC: Mechanistics of LINC-mediated force transmission
Cells receive many signals from their environment, including tensions and mechanical forces that are transferred all the way down to their nucleus. Nuclear shape adaptations to tho...
REU Site: EXERCISE - Explore Emerging Computing in Science and Engineering
The project is a renewal of the Research Experiences for Undergraduates (REU) EXERCISE (Explore Emerging Computing in Science and Engineering) site at Salisbury University (SU) for...
RAPID: Rapid Assessment of Air Quality During Wildland-Urban Interface Fires in Southern California
This RAPID project focuses on the nature of smoke and ash pollution from the fires occurring at the wildland-urban interface (WUI) in the Los Angeles region. The goals this effort...
Doctoral Dissertation Research: Resource Management and Adaptation in Coastal Regions
This dissertation research studies how traditional resource management systems in coastal regions adapt to new regulations. The investigators specifically test for the social and c...
PPM: Illuminating the Dihydrouridine Epitranscriptome
The goal of this project is to deepen our understanding of chemical modifications on ribonucleic acid (RNA) and their role in biological processes. Cellular RNAs are decorated with...
Collaborative Research: Seeing and hearing frictional interfaces: using total internal reflection imaging and acoustic methods to explore contact dynamics
Both earthquakes and ice sheet collapse pose enormous hazards with severe societal consequences. Both systems are partly controlled by friction. Microscopic contacts at rock interf...
Quantitative structural and functional studies of membrane transporter evolution
This research will investigate membrane protein evolution with the long-term goal of designing artificial cells with tailored functions. The specific objective of this project is t...
EMBRACE:SEED - Orbital Drag and Neutral Atmosphere Density from Assimilation of Satellite Global Positioning System (GPS) Navigation Data
Even at low-Earth orbit altitudes there is enough atmosphere that its drag effect on satellites must be considered for accurate navigation in this increasingly crowded region of sp...
Doctoral Dissertation Research: Sustainability Labor Across a Corporate Supply Chain
This doctoral dissertation project examines sustainability initiatives among corporations in the private sector. Sustainability initiatives are common and contextualized by concern...
PurSUiT: New Discoveries of Early Cretaceous Floras from Northwestern Gondwana Reveal a Cradle of Plant Diversity
Tropical forests in South America are among the most diverse ecosystems on Earth. Yet their origins remain one of the great mysteries of science. This project investigates the earl...
RAPID: Extreme Weather Effects on Southern Appalachian Terrestrial Food Webs
This project will test how different trophic levels within forest floor food webs react to extreme disturbance and how this reaction could impact the health of forest ecosystems. F...
