This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) will fund research to investigate the interactions between internal waves and submesoscale currents in the ocean's bottom boundary layer. The total award is $418,382 over a period of 3 years, from June 1, 2024 to May 31, 2027. The research will combine theoretical concepts, analyses of existing measurements, and computer modeling to assess how these wave-current interactions affect mixing and...
This National Science Foundation (NSF) Division of Ocean Sciences Project Grant, funded under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050), supports collaborative research to map the spatial and temporal patterns of internal gravity wave (IW) dissipation and mixing using global observations, numerical simulations, and theory. The $884,427 award, effective September 1, 2023 through August 31, 2026, will employ global and regional IW models, as well as observational data from sources like Argo floats and...
This National Science Foundation (NSF) Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) Project Grant award in the amount of $353,715 will fund a collaborative research project to study the turbulence in the stratified layer at the air-water interface, as driven by waves and wind. The project will utilize a combination of controlled laboratory experiments and advanced numerical simulations (large-eddy simulations) to test the hypothesis that coupling between waves and wind-driven currents is necessary to...
