This National Science Foundation (NSF) Division of Atmospheric and Geospace Sciences Project Grant award, with a total funding amount of $532,712, supports collaborative research to investigate the physical processes underlying transitions in marine stratocumulus cloud cover over the eastern North Atlantic region. The research aims to develop a causal framework to better understand the complex interactions that drive changes in cloud structure, from continuous stratocumulus layers to more broken...
This Project Grant from the National Science Foundation Division of Atmospheric and Geospace Sciences provides $739,184 to Penn State University from September 1, 2021 through August 31, 2024. The funding supports research aimed at improving understanding of non-equilibrium surface-layer stress-strain-rate relationships using stationarity analysis techniques and large-eddy simulation. This award advances the goals of the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) to strengthen the national scientific...
The National Science Foundation Division of Atmospheric and Geospace Sciences awarded a $390,804 Project Grant to the University of Miami Rosenstiel School of Marine and Atmospheric Science under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050). The grant will fund research into atmospheric lakes of vapor drifting over the east coast of Africa from January 1, 2022 to December 31, 2024. As part of the Geosciences program's goal of expanding knowledge of the integrated Earth system through basic research,...
The National Science Foundation Division of Atmospheric and Geospace Sciences awarded a $453,861 Project Grant to the University of Pittsburgh to support research titled "Turbulence in the Long-Lived, Very Stable Atmospheric Boundary Layer." The award period is from June 1, 2022 to May 31, 2025. The grant funds research aimed at better understanding turbulence under stable atmospheric conditions, such as those frequently observed at night or during cold seasons, and developing reliable...
The Trustees of Princeton University received a $557,420 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation Division of Atmospheric and Geospace Sciences on August 15, 2021 to support research titled "Meteorological Islands: How the Atmosphere Interacts with Large Individual Patches of Heterogeneity." The award will fund research through July 31, 2024 under the Geosciences program (CFDA #47.050) to strengthen understanding of the integrated Earth system through basic research...
The Trustees of Boston University were awarded a $500,000 Project Grant from the National Science Foundation to conduct studies of atmospheric processes using imaging science techniques from April 1, 2021 through March 31, 2022. The grant was awarded under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050), which supports basic research to expand understanding of the integrated Earth system through atmospheric, earth, and ocean sciences. Specifically, the funding will support the awardee's analysis of...
The National Science Foundation (NSF) Division of Atmospheric and Geospace Sciences awarded a $199,997 Project Grant to The Research Foundation For The State University Of New York, doing business as Suny ESF, under the NSF Geosciences federal grant program (CFDA 47.050) with a period of performance from July 1, 2023 to June 30, 2024. The grant is supporting a RAPID project to characterize the sources and chemistry of nitrogen oxides, nitrous acid, and particulate nitrate during the AEROMMA...
The National Science Foundation (NSF) Division of Atmospheric and Geospace Sciences awarded a $440,764 Project Grant to Washington State University to study the influences of large turbulent eddies on the validity of the constant flux layer assumption in the unstable atmospheric surface layer. The 3-year project will leverage a field experiment over a large water body in Mississippi to collect a unique dataset that minimizes the influence of advective terms, enabling a more precise examination...
