The University of California San Diego received a $680,406 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation Division of Atmospheric and Geospace Sciences on July 15, 2021 to undertake a process-oriented investigation of double Intertropical Convergence Zone (ITCZ) biases in the National Center for Atmospheric Research Community Earth System Model. The research will be performed by the Scripps Institution of Oceanography through June 30, 2024.

The investigation seeks to improve understanding and representation of the ITCZ in the NCAR CESM through analysis of physical processes responsible for double ITCZ biases. Results may help reduce uncertainties in climate modeling and future projections. The award is funded through the NSF's Geosciences program (CFDA #47.050), which supports basic research in atmospheric, earth and ocean sciences to expand knowledge of the integrated Earth system.
