This three-year, $520,660 project grant from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) supports research to constrain cloud and convective parameterizations in climate models using paleoclimate data assimilation. Specifically, the awardee, the University of Arizona, will conduct fully coupled, isotope-enabled climate simulations for the Last Glacial Maximum, Mid-Holocene, and pre-industrial periods using an ensemble of cloud and convective parameter sets. Paleoclimate...
This three-year $719,730 project grant from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) supports research to constrain cloud and convective parameterizations in climate models using paleoclimate data assimilation. The awardee, William Paterson University of New Jersey, will conduct fully-coupled, isotope-enabled climate simulations for the Last Glacial Maximum, Mid-Holocene, and Pre-Industrial periods using an ensemble of cloud and convective parameter sets....
This $596,100 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) supports research at the University of California, San Diego's Scripps Institution of Oceanography. The research aims to develop a new climate modeling approach that can better capture the interactions between small-scale cloud processes and large-scale climate dynamics. Key objectives include: 1) understanding how climate-scale adjustments may buffer the radiative effects of aerosols on...
Columbia University was awarded a $371,187 project grant from the National Science Foundation's Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences program (CFDA 47.075) for the period September 1, 2022 through August 31, 2025. The grant will support collaborative research to map the materiality of past human responses to climate change through archaeological, ethnohistorical, and paleoclimate data collected over three field seasons with stakeholder communities. The project aims to clarify the impacts...
This $425,395 National Science Foundation project grant supports research into understanding low-cloud feedbacks using large-eddy simulation of spatially developing cloud transitions from February 15, 2022 through January 31, 2027. Funded through the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050), the research aims to address limitations in modeling low-cloud behavior over large areas by developing a hierarchy of large-eddy simulation model configurations at different scales. Several experiments are...
The National Science Foundation Division of Atmospheric and Geospace Sciences awarded a $552,562 Project Grant to Columbia University under the Geosciences federal grant program (CFDA 47.050) for the period of July 15, 2021 through June 30, 2024. The grant supports collaborative research between Columbia University researchers and the Natural Environment Research Council in the United Kingdom to enhance understanding of trans-hemispheric climate variability through analysis of a novel...
The National Science Foundation (NSF) awarded a $546,989 Project Grant to The Trustees of Columbia University in the City of New York, operating through its Sponsored Projects Administration Division, under the Geosciences (CFDA 47.050) program. The grant supports collaborative research to understand the non-linear and feedback mechanisms in the atmospheric circulation response to increased carbon dioxide (CO2) levels. The research aims to address the limited understanding of how warming-induced...
This $112,582 National Science Foundation project grant supports foundational research to improve understanding and forecasting of downdrafts in deep convection through June 2025. Funded under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050), the research will analyze the influence of atmospheric properties on downdraft forces and origins using theoretical and idealized modeling. Insights will enhance downdraft representation in weather and climate models to improve prediction of thunderstorm impacts,...
