This National Science Foundation Project Grant of $409,185 will support research to assess the predictability of annual to decadal sea level variability on global scales. Funded through the Geosciences program under the CFDA number 47.050, this research aims to quantify the ability of community Earth system models to simulate and predict sea level changes over timeframes relevant for coastal planning. Specifically, the awardee Atmospheric & Environmental Research Inc. will determine the...
This three-year, $563,324 National Science Foundation project grant funds research by Atmospheric & Environmental Research Inc. on observing and modeling the spatiotemporal variability of the seasonal cycle in sea level. The awardee will analyze satellite and in situ data, as well as output from global ocean models, to examine the seasonal cycle in sea level over global oceans and coastal regions. Specific objectives include analyzing the seasonal cycle's mean and year-to-year variability...
This $221,255 National Science Foundation Project Grant under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) will fund research to better understand spatial variability in sea level change during the last interglacial period approximately 120,000 years ago. The grantee will develop high-resolution global models of mantle flow to predict dynamic topography change across the greater Caribbean region over this timeframe. They will also compile a comprehensive dataset of interglacial sea level indicators...
This $2,171,913 Cooperative Agreement awarded by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) under the Climate and Atmospheric Research program (CFDA 11.431) supports research to improve the predictability of regional coastal sea levels due to large-scale climate variability. The research team at Colorado State University will analyze tide gauge observations and climate model simulations, leveraging state-of-the-art explainable AI (XAI) approaches to quantify relationships between...
The Department of Commerce National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) awarded a $207,189 Cooperative Agreement to the University Corporation for Atmospheric Research (UCAR), which manages the National Center for Atmospheric Research (NCAR), under the Climate and Atmospheric Research program (CFDA 11.431).

The National Science Foundation (NSF) Geosciences program awarded a $624,127 Project Grant to Florida State University (FSU) to study the impact of ocean dynamics on coastal sea level changes in the eastern Atlantic region. The award, titled "OCEAN DYNAMICS IMPACTING SHELF SEA LEVEL IN EASTERN ATLANTIC (ODISSEA)," will combine direct observations and numerical modeling to quantify the drivers of regional sea level variability and extremes, with a focus on understanding the influence of...
North Carolina State University will receive $207,801 from the National Science Foundation under the agency's Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) to determine the role of ocean dynamics in Atlantic sea surface temperature variations using coupled climate models. Through a three-year project grant awarded September 1, 2022, the university will develop a hierarchy of coupled climate models within the Community Earth System Model version 2 platform to quantitatively assess how one-dimensional ocean...
This $784,389 National Science Foundation project grant under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) supports research into the causes of sea surface temperature fluctuations in the North Atlantic Ocean and their climatic impacts. The University of California, Riverside will conduct climate model simulations using the Community Earth System Model to explore the roles of natural variability versus external forcing factors like anthropogenic aerosols in driving the temperature changes. Specific...
