- The University of Hawaii at Manoa will conduct collaborative research on the relationship between El Niño-Southern Oscillation (ENSO) diversity and tropical cyclones through a $229,504 National Science Foundation Project Grant. The research aims to strengthen understanding of the integrated Earth system through basic research in atmospheric, earth, and ocean sciences, as part of NSF's Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050). Specifically, the three-year award beginning March 15, 2021 will support...
- This three-year, $830,233 project grant from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) supports research examining the impact of greenhouse gas-induced global warming on tropical cyclones in the Pacific region. The Columbia University research team, in collaboration with sub-awardee The Trustees of Columbia University, will utilize flux adjustment techniques and high-resolution atmospheric modeling to simulate the response of key ocean temperature patterns to...
- This $341,117 project grant from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) will fund research to improve understanding of potential changes to El Niño-Southern Oscillation (ENSO) impacts from climate change. The awardee, North Carolina State University, will use sophisticated computer modeling to systematically test scenarios of how different possible future changes to ENSO could alter temperature and precipitation patterns over North America. The research seeks to...
- This $440,785 project grant from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) will fund research at the University of Miami to model how El Niño-Southern Oscillation patterns may change under future climate conditions and how those changes could alter related terrestrial impacts across North America. Over a three-year period ending in October 2025, the grantee will use sophisticated computer simulations to systematically test scenarios of potential ENSO variability and...
- The National Science Foundation's Geosciences program has awarded a $332,982 Project Grant to the University of Illinois. The grant, awarded on November 15, 2023, will fund collaborative research to understand the links between tropical cyclones and tropical circulation under climate change. The research will leverage two idealized configurations of the Community Earth System Model to isolate the mechanisms by which changes in atmospheric overturning cells, such as the Hadley and Walker Cells,...
- The National Science Foundation (NSF) awarded a $588,786 project grant under the Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) to The Trustees of Columbia University in the City of New York (Columbia University) to develop replicated coral geochemical reconstructions to understand dynamics of the South Pacific Convergence Zone (SPCZ) in the context of climate change. The project aims to analyze temperature-sensitive elements preserved in coral cores from American Samoa, Fiji, and Tonga to reconstruct...
- Iowa State University of Science and Technology (ISU) was awarded a $221,003 Project Grant from the National Science Foundation on March 15, 2021 to complete a collaborative research project by February 29, 2024. The research project aims to study the relationship between El Niño-Southern Oscillation diversity and tropical cyclones using a hierarchy of climate models. This work will strengthen understanding of the integrated Earth system, in alignment with the goals of the NSF's Geosciences...
- This $687,689 project grant was awarded on August 15, 2025 by the National Science Foundation's Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) to The Trustees of Columbia University in the City of New York. The grant supports research to advance fundamental understanding of Pacific Ocean dynamics across different timescales, including interannual variability, decadal cycles, and long-term climate change. By integrating observational analyses, theoretical demonstrations, and model experiments, the project...
- The Trustees of Columbia University in the City of New York Sponsored Projects Administration Division (Columbia University) was awarded a $117,062 project grant from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) to conduct research on the coupling mechanism of the Madden-Julian Oscillation and Quasi-Biennial Oscillation through cloud-radiative feedback. The award period is from July 1, 2023 to June 30, 2026. As part of the grant, Columbia University researchers will...
- This National Science Foundation Project Grant award of $372,445 provides funding from May 1, 2022 through April 30, 2025 under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) to support collaborative research on the intensity and size relationship of tropical cyclones. The University of Maryland, College Park will train two Ph.D. students and one postdoc in atmospheric dynamics, modeling, and data science while working with an undergraduate student to launch experimental forecasts for tropical cyclone...
The National Science Foundation awarded a $227,438 project grant to The Trustees of Columbia University in New York City to support research titled "Collaborative Research: The Relationship Between El Niño-Southern Oscillation (ENSO) Diversity and Tropical Cyclones in a Hierarchy of Models." The research will be conducted from March 2021 through February 2024 under the NSF's Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050), which supports basic research in atmospheric, earth, and ocean sciences to strengthen understanding of the integrated Earth system. Specifically, the Columbia University researchers will examine how diversity in the frequency and intensity of El Niño-Southern Oscillation climate patterns relates to tropical cyclone activity using a hierarchy of climate models at varying scales. Insights from this research could enhance understanding and prediction of tropical cyclone behavior under different climate regimes.
