About this award
The Research Foundation for the State University of New York at the University at Albany received a $630,429 grant award from the Shared Services Center on December 7, 2021, to support research investigating land-atmosphere interactions and their role in climate uncertainty. The project, with a completion date of December 6, 2026, addresses critical gaps in understanding how land surface conditions influence weather and climate across midlatitude regions. The research leverages long-term, integrated multi-satellite and multi-sensor data from NASA's Terra, Aqua, Suomi NPP, and NOAA-20 platforms to quantify historical land-atmosphere coupling variability and trends, with particular emphasis on understanding regional frequency of locally-forced weather events, vegetation sensitivity, drought evolution, and the comparative value of satellite-based versus in situ observational data across diverse climate zones.
This research grant responds to recent recognition that land-atmosphere interactions represent one of the greatest sources of climate uncertainty at 7-30 day timescales and directly supports improved parameterization of coupled processes in Earth system models. The project employs a two-pronged approach combining regional in situ data collection with global satellite data analysis to address questions about weather regime sequencing, precipitation-evaporation dynamics, and projected warming and drying trends in midlatitude regions. No set-aside designation was used for this competitive award to the non-profit research administration organization serving the State University of New York system.
Description
Recent recognition that land-atmosphere interactions constitute one of the greatest sources of climate uncertainty at 7-30 day timescales has pushed land-atmosphere interactions research to the forefront of earth system model development.
