This two-year Project Grant from the National Science Foundation Division of Atmospheric and Geospace Sciences provides $190,000 to leverage high-resolution modeling and dynamical theory to elucidate changes in extreme precipitation in a monsoonal regime. The funding will support basic research from October 2021 through September 2023 aimed at strengthening understanding of the integrated Earth system, as outlined in the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) of enhancing fundamental knowledge and...
This Project Grant award of $220,934, provided by the National Science Foundation's Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050), will support a collaborative research project to reconstruct rainfall intensity and Asian monsoon patterns in mainland Southeast Asia over the past 200,000 years. The research team from William Paterson University of New Jersey will analyze stable isotopes and trace elements in cave deposits (speleothems) from Laos and Vietnam, along with climate model simulations, to improve...
This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation (NSF) Division of Earth Sciences, under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050), will provide $417,242 to The Research Foundation for The State University of New York (RF-SUNY) from September 1, 2023 to August 31, 2026 to conduct collaborative research on the 50,000-year history of the Indian Summer Monsoon (ISM). The research will focus on analyzing sediment cores from Loktak Lake in northeast India to reconstruct past changes in the...
The National Science Foundation (NSF) Division of Earth Sciences awarded a 3-year, $461,546 Project Grant to the University of Pittsburgh to conduct collaborative research on a 50,000-year continuous record of the Indian Summer Monsoon from Loktak Lake in northeast India. The project aims to improve understanding of the relative importance of factors like greenhouse gas concentrations, ocean circulation patterns, and climate variability in driving gradual and abrupt changes in the Indian...
