The National Science Foundation Division of Polar Programs awarded The Ohio State University a $844,359 Project Grant under the Polar Programs (CFDA 47.078) federal grant program. The grant supports applying observations from the Year of Polar Prediction - Southern Hemisphere targeted observing periods to advance winter numerical weather forecasting for the U.S. Antarctic Program. Specifically, The Ohio State University will conduct atmospheric modeling experiments leveraging special radioosonde observations from targeted periods in East Antarctica and the Ross Sea. The University Corporation for Atmospheric Research has been awarded a subgrant of $844,359 to assist with coordinating the targeted observing periods, acquiring and preprocessing the observation data, implementing new data assimilation techniques in the Weather Research and Forecasting model, and analyzing model simulations to evaluate forecast improvements and cloud prediction capabilities. The overall goal is to enhance weather forecasting support for U.S. Antarctic Program operations and research through improved atmospheric modeling.
