The University of Wisconsin-Madison received a $320,688 National Science Foundation Project Grant under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) to support research titled "COLLABORATIVE RESEARCH: CONVECTIVE UPSCALE GROWTH PROCESSES DURING RELAMPAGO" from January 1, 2022 through December 31, 2024.

The grant funding will support research investigating convective upscale growth processes during the RELAMPAGO field project. Specifically, the University of Wisconsin-Madison researchers will analyze RELAMPAGO observational data to improve understanding of how mesoscale convective systems develop through interactions between convection and environmental flow. Insights gained from this research could lead to improved very short-term convective-scale weather forecasting. The University of Wisconsin System serves as the parent organization overseeing use of the $320k in NSF grant funds awarded to the University of Wisconsin-Madison for this research project.
