FLORIDA A&M UNIVERSITY SPHEROMAK TURBULENT PLASMA EXPERIMENT (STPX) IN COLLABORATION WITH WEST VIRGINIA UNIVERSITY - PR # 09CH11562$2,777,393
· FY2009 · Department of Energy
THE OVERALL PROJECT OBJECTIVE IS TO INVESTIGATE PRE-DISASTER PREPAREDNESS AND POST-DISASTER FAST RESTORATION FROM EXTREME WEATHER EVENTS IN VULNERABLE COMMUNITIES, AS IT RELATES TO PHOTOVOLTAIC (PV) GENERATION ON A CITY-WIDE POWER GRID. THE SPECIFIC TECHNICAL GOAL IS TO DEVELOP A MODULAR PV + BATTERY ENERGY SYSTEM AND TO VERIFY ITS UNINTERRUPTED PERFORMANCE DURING HOT SWAPPING BY LAB EXPERIMENT.$2,600,000

THE AGRICULTURAL PRODUCTION SYSTEM IS VULNERABLE TO CLIMATE CHANGE AND LAND-USE CHANGES ARE BEING PRACTICED AS THE MAJOR ADAPTATION STRATEGY. THE LONG-TERM GOAL OF THIS PROJECT IS TO ENHANCE THE RESILIENCE OF THE FOOD/FIBER SUPPLY CHAIN, WHILE MINIMIZING THE NEGATIVE ENVIRONMENTAL, SOCIAL, AND ECONOMIC IMPACTS. WE HYPOTHESIZE THAT (I) CLIMATE-INDUCED INCREASE IN TEMPERATURE AND ALTERED PRECIPITATION PATTERNS WILL ADVERSELY IMPACT WATER YIELD AND QUALITY, AND AGRICULTURAL SOIL HEALTH, WHILE GHG EMISSION WILL INCREASE, RENDERING THE AGRICULTURAL SYSTEM MORE VULNERABLE AND (II) SPECIFIC, TARGETED LAND-USE CHANGES CAN MITIGATE THE ADVERSE ENVIRONMENTAL, SOCIAL, AND ECONOMIC IMPACTS, THUS REDUCING THE VULNERABILITY OF THE AGRICULTURAL SYSTEM. THESE HYPOTHESES WILL BE TESTED VIA VULNERABILITY ANALYSIS WITH INDICATORS REPRESENTING INTERNAL CHARACTERISTICS OF WATER YIELD AND SOIL, WATER AND AIR QUALITY AND EXTERNAL STRESSORS OF ECONOMIC AND SOCIAL FACTORS. ALL THE INDICATORS WILL BE GENERATEDBY PROCESS-BASED MODELS CALIBRATED BY LITERATURE, AVAILABLE DATA, AND ADDITIONAL LABORATORY AND FIELD EXPERIMENTAL RESULTS. THE FINDINGS OF THIS PROJECT WILL PROVIDE ACCEPTANCE GUIDELINES OF LAND-USE CHANGES TO ADAPT TO CLIMATE CHANGE AND WILL BE TRANSFERRED TO EDUCATION AND EXTENSION PROGRAMS AT MULTIPLE LEVELS. THIS PROJECT WILL BE COORDINATED BY FLORIDA A&M UNIVERSITY, ONE OF THE 1890 LAND-GRANT INSTITUTIONS, WITH JOINT EFFORTS OF WASHINGTON STATE UNIVERSITY AND THE CENTER FOR FOREST WATERSHED RESEARCH OF USDA FOREST SERVICE.$1,095,421

** AWARDS ISSUED PRIOR TO JANUARY 20, 2025, WERE FUNDED UNDER PREVIOUS ADMINISTRATIONS AND MAY NOT REFLECT THE PRIORITIES AND POLICIES OF THE CURRENT ADMINISTRATION.** THE OVERALL GOAL OF THIS PROPOSED PROJECT IS TO GROW PRECISION ENGINEERING SYSTEMS OF NEAR REAL-TIME MONITORING FOR MUSCADINE GRAPE VINEYARDS AND WATER MANAGEMENT (GPES) BY PILOTING THE FAMU CENTER FOR VITICULTURE AND SMALL FRUIT RESEARCH AS TESTBEDS FOR DEPLOYING ADVANCED ENGINEERING TECHNOLOGIES; AND TO ENABLE STAKEHOLDERS, ESPECIALLY UNDERSERVED AFRICAN AMERICAN GROWERS TO OBSERVE, LEARN, AND TEST THE CONTINUOUS IMPROVEMENT PROCESSES FOR VINEYARDS' SUSTAINABILITY (E.G., CANOPY HEALTH, WATER USE EFFICIENCY, DISEASE SENSING, AND ENVIRONMENTAL FRIENDLY) AND TO EVALUATE HOW TESTBED MANAGEMENT PRACTICES MAY AFFECT GROWERS' TECHNOLOGY ADOPTION BEHAVIORS; AND TO ENGAGE MINORITY AFRICAN AMERICAN STUDENTS IN EXPERIENTIAL LEARNING EXPERIENCES TO TRAIN STUDENTS FOR PRECISION VINEYARDS AND WATER MANAGEMENT OF THE FUTURE.THIS PROPOSAL ADDRESSES A1551 PROGRAM AREA PRIORITY FOCUSES ON ENGINEERED DEVICES, TECHNOLOGIES, SENSORS, AND TOOLS TO PROVIDE PRECISION CROP AND ORCHARD MANAGEMENT, TECHNOLOGIES FOR TARGETED APPLICATION OF CROP PROTECTION MATERIALS, AND IMPROVE EFFICIENCY OF IRRIGATION AND NUTRIENT USE IN AGRICULTURAL SYSTEMS. SPECIFICALLY, IT ADDRESSES THE A1551 PRIORITY AREAS A, B, C, D, AND F 1). AS AN INTEGRATED PROJECT, THIS PROPOSED PROJECT WILL MAKE PRECISION AGRICULTURE TOOLS AND TECHNOLOGY MORE ACCESSIBLE BY EXTENSION AND EDUCATION, PARTICULARLY TO THE AFRICAN AMERICAN GROWERS AND STUDENTS, WILL ENGAGE HBCU THAT ARE CURRENTLY UNDERREPRESENTED, AND WILL DEVELOP PRECISION AGRICULTURE PLATFORMS AND TRAINING ACTIVITIES TAILORED TO MULTIPLE SCIENTIFIC COMMUNITIES AND DIFFERENT CAREER STAGES WITHIN A1551.$760,000
