About this award
The National Center for Atmospheric Research (NCAR), operated by the University Corporation for Atmospheric Research, received a $272,719 grant award from the National Science Foundation on May 14, 2024, for research titled "Ground-Based Observations That Characterize Circulation and Transport at the Bottom of Geospace: A New Look at Gravity Wave Drag Parameterization in Global Thermosphere-Ionosphere Model." The research will be conducted at NCAR's facility in Boulder, Colorado, with an ultimate completion date of October 31, 2026. This award supports fundamental atmospheric science research aimed at improving understanding of geospace dynamics through ground-based observational data and enhanced parameterization of gravity wave effects in global thermosphere-ionosphere models.
The grant carries no set-aside designation and represents part of NSF's broader investment in advanced atmospheric and Earth system science research. NCAR, as a federally funded research and development center consortium of over 115 universities, routinely executes grants and contracts across multiple federal agencies including NOAA, NASA, and the Office of Naval Research. This particular award contributes to the Foundation's portfolio of geospace science initiatives, which seek to advance understanding of Earth's upper atmosphere and space weather phenomena through improved observational techniques and computational modeling capabilities.
