This $513,000 Project Grant award was provided by the National Science Foundation (NSF) Division of Polar Programs from August 1, 2023 to July 31, 2026. The grant supports collaborative research by the University of Colorado to assess the causal influence of atmospheric opacity (clouds) and sea ice thickness on Arctic warming over the past 40 years and into the near future. Key deliverables include quantifying the impact of these factors on Arctic warming rates using a novel modeling approach,...
This $870,804 federal Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Polar Programs (CFDA 47.078) will support a 5-year research project at the University of Washington focused on improving the representation of small-scale sea ice processes in climate models. The key objectives are to refine the modeling of sea ice deformation and fractures at the floe scale, and establish connections between these small-scale dynamics and larger-scale sea ice behavior. This will involve a...
This Project Grant from the National Science Foundation Division of Polar Programs, under the Polar Programs federal grant program (CFDA 47.078), provides $560,052 to Colorado State University to improve seasonal sea ice extent predictability in the Arctic Ocean. The research aims to use ocean heat patterns and the timing of autumn sea ice freeze up from reanalysis data and the CESM2 Large Ensemble to evaluate which environmental variables most significantly contribute to sea ice loss. The grant...
