The Pennsylvania State University received a $874,040 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation Division of Atmospheric and Geospace Sciences under the Geosciences federal grant program (CFDA 47.050). The award will support research from June 1, 2023 to May 31, 2028 to further understanding of how future Arctic sea ice loss may impact daily weather patterns and extreme cold air outbreak events. A machine learning method and feature tracking algorithm will be applied to coordinated climate model experiments to study the causal impacts of sea ice loss. Additionally, the award will develop climate communication course modules and include a quarterly climate segment on Penn State's PBS program to increase societal understanding of climate change impacts. The education activities are expected to improve public understanding and engagement on climate issues. The research and education services funded under this award advance the Geosciences program's goal of expanding fundamental earth science knowledge through basic research support.
