The Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution was awarded a two-year, $599,798 Project Grant from the National Science Foundation Division of Ocean Sciences under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050). The grant will support research examining Holocene upper Atlantic temperature trends and variability in the Atlantic meridional overturning circulation. Funding will enable analysis of paleoclimate records to better understand potential links between anomalous heat uptake and past fluctuations in ocean...
This three-year, $305,901 Project Grant from the National Science Foundation's Division of Ocean Sciences, under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050), will support research investigating the influence of subglacial discharge from Greenland fjords on ocean circulation and meltwater fate in the Labrador Sea. The Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution will model subglacial meltwater plume transport pathways and quantify effects on winter convection, comparing subsurface outflow to surface inputs....
This Project Grant from the National Science Foundation Division of Ocean Sciences, under the Geosciences federal grant program (CFDA 47.050), provides $449,645 to the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution. The funding will support development of a numerical model to simulate the pathways of glacial meltwater introduced into the North Atlantic Ocean from the Laurentide Ice Sheet during the last ice age. Specifically, the coupled ocean circulation-sea ice model will be configured and tested to...
The Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution will receive $294,992 under a three-year Project Grant from the National Science Foundation Division of Ocean Sciences. The grant will support collaborative research to analyze 150 years of sea surface and subsurface observations in order to map whole-ocean temperature and detect circulation changes. This work aligns with the goals of the NSF's Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050), which aims to strengthen understanding of the integrated Earth system through...
This National Science Foundation (NSF) Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) Project Grant award of $709,875 will fund research by the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution (WHOI) to reconstruct intermediate and deep water formation in the North Pacific over the past 25,000 years. The project will generate new stable isotope and trace element data from benthic foraminifera across a depth transect in the Northeast Pacific to calculate the air-sea carbon isotope component, a promising water mass tracer...
This three-year, $1,083,600 project grant from the National Science Foundation Division of Ocean Sciences, under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050), will fund research examining the dynamics of cross-shelf exchange in an Antarctic slope canyon. The Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution will conduct numerical modeling and laboratory experiments to test hypotheses about dense shelf water transport and the onshore flow of deep offshore water induced by dense water descending the canyon. The...
The Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution received a three-year, $669,196 Project Grant from the National Science Foundation Division of Ocean Sciences under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050). The grant will support collaborative research to probe the ventilation efficiency of the deep ocean using conservative dissolved gas tracers in archived samples. As part of its mission to strengthen the national scientific enterprise through expanding fundamental knowledge of the integrated Earth...
This $495,521 federal Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) will support research to better understand cold-season hydrological dynamics and lateral carbon export in North Atlantic salt marshes. The Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution (WHOI) will lead this 3-year collaborative project with the U.S. Geological Survey as a sub-awardee. The key products and services delivered through this funding include: Monitoring soil temperatures,...
