The University Corporation for Atmospheric Research (UCAR), doing business as the National Center for Atmospheric Research (NCAR), received a three-year, $446,899 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation Division of Polar Programs on September 1, 2021.

The grant supports collaborative research to constrain uncertainty in Arctic climate variability, change, and impacts through process-based understanding. This work directly aligns with the goals of the Polar Programs' CFDA #47.078 to strengthen fundamental knowledge and understanding of polar regions through basic research best or only conducted in polar environments. Over the 36-month period ending August 31, 2024, NCAR researchers will work to better characterize Arctic climate processes, variability, and change through observational analysis and modeling. This research aims to provide scientific insights to help assess and predict Arctic climate impacts.
