This $654,897 Project Grant from the National Science Foundation Division of Ocean Sciences, under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050), will fund collaborative research on swash zone dynamics driven by obliquely incident waves. The University of Delaware will lead laboratory experiments, theoretical analysis, and numerical simulations to expand understanding of three-dimensional flow and sediment transport patterns in the swash zone under a range of wave conditions and angles of incidence....
This Project Grant from the National Science Foundation provides $299,994 to the University of Wisconsin-Madison under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) from March 2021 through February 2024. The funding supports research titled "Boundary Layer Dynamics and Sediment Transport in Swash Interactions," which will strengthen understanding of integrated Earth system processes through basic investigation of atmospheric, earth, and ocean sciences as outlined in the program description....
The University of Delaware received a three-year, $390,198 National Science Foundation project grant under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) to conduct collaborative research on the experimental and numerical study of bed shear stress and turbulent boundary layer structure induced by breaking-wave-generated vortices. The research is intended to strengthen fundamental knowledge and understanding of integrated Earth system processes through basic research in atmospheric, earth, and ocean...
This National Science Foundation project grant of $399,900 will fund research at the University of Delaware from September 1, 2022 to August 31, 2025. The research aims to advance understanding of the ocean surface boundary layer dynamics under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050). Specifically, the award will support collaborative research to explore the effects of surface waves on the stratified ocean surface boundary layer during conditions of surface heating. Through analyses of existing...
The National Science Foundation awarded a $906,682 Project Grant to the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) for research related to wave- and wind-driven flows near beaches. The three-year award, issued on March 15, 2021 with a completion date of February 29, 2024, will support the Institution's work examining fundamental knowledge and increased understanding of integrated earth system processes through basic research of atmospheric, earth, and...
The University of Washington was awarded a three-year, $137,893 Project Grant from the National Science Foundation under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) to conduct collaborative research on the experimental and numerical study of bed shear stress and turbulent boundary layer structure induced by breaking-wave-generated vortices. The research funded through this award will strengthen understanding of integrated Earth system processes through basic research in atmospheric, earth, and ocean...
The University of North Carolina at Wilmington (UNCW) has received a $307,226.00 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation (NSF) Division of Ocean Sciences under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) to study recirculating flows at the nearshore zone where waves break, the surf zone. The project will use mathematical models and existing measurements to explore three hypotheses: (A) that the recirculations can be identified from shore-based images, (B) that the recirculating...
This National Science Foundation (NSF) Project Grant, awarded under the Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050), will support collaborative research to transform the understanding of how coastlines respond to shifts in storm climate patterns. The $893,081 award to Duke University, with a project period from August 2024 to July 2027, will develop new approaches to downscale global climate model outputs to forecast the waves and winds affecting specific coastlines, such as the Carolina coastline. This...
The National Science Foundation (NSF) Geosciences program has awarded a $259,253 Project Grant to the University of New Hampshire (UNH) to investigate the impacts of sea breeze and steep surface gravity waves on nearshore air-sea fluxes. The overarching goal is to advance understanding of how ocean surface waves mediate the exchange of momentum and heat between the atmosphere and ocean, especially over spatial and temporal scales that are currently under-resolved by observations and models....
The University of Delaware received a $497,107 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation on March 1, 2021 to support research titled "COLLABORATIVE RESEARCH: WIND TURBULENCE OVER SHOALING SURFACE WAVES AND THEIR IMPACT ON AIR-SEA FLUXES." The research is being conducted under the NSF's Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050), which aims to strengthen understanding of the integrated Earth system through basic research in atmospheric, earth, and ocean sciences.
