The research...
- The University of Delaware received a $497,107 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation on March 1, 2021 to support research titled "COLLABORATIVE RESEARCH: WIND TURBULENCE OVER SHOALING SURFACE WAVES AND THEIR IMPACT ON AIR-SEA FLUXES." The research is being conducted under the NSF's Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050), which aims to strengthen understanding of the integrated Earth system through basic research in atmospheric, earth, and ocean sciences. Specifically, the...
The University of Delaware received a $105,485 project grant award from the National Science Foundation on March 15, 2021 to support research activities concluding on July 31, 2022. The funding supports the NSF's Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050), which aims to strengthen fundamental knowledge and understanding of the integrated Earth system through basic research in atmospheric, earth, and ocean sciences. Specifically, the award will support the RV Sharp Swallow SSSE project. This likely refers to research conducted from the University's RV Sharp research vessel, and involves studies of sediment, seafloor, and shallow water environments to advance understanding of geoscience processes. The place of performance is listed as Lewes, Delaware, the home port of the RV Sharp. The award provides over $105k in funding and resources to the University over approximately 16 months to undertake applied scientific field work and analysis in support of the goals of the NSF's Geosciences program.
