This is a $572,981.92 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to The Trustees of Princeton University's Office of Research and Project Administration Division for research related to the ocean's carbon cycle and its response to climate change. The grant is focused on using Earth system models (ESMs) to understand how anthropogenic climate change will impact the ocean's solubility and biological carbon pumps, which have important implications for the coupled carbon-climate system, ocean acidification, and ecosystems. The research aims to identify the timing and spatial patterns of when anthropogenic signals emerge from natural climate variability in the ocean carbon pumps across multiple ESMs. The grant also seeks to improve understanding of climate-carbon feedbacks on the ocean carbon pumps and address model biases through data-override experiments. This work is relevant to NASA's carbon cycle science synthesis goals by contributing to improved understanding of the ocean's biological pump and helping to optimize the remote sensing contributions to the carbon cycle observing system. No set-aside designation was included in the award.
