The National Science Foundation awarded a $799,904 Project Grant to the Regents of the University of California at Riverside under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) to study the role of varying ocean circulations in climate change from May 1, 2023 to April 30, 2028. The award will support research using an ensemble-overriding method with multiple climate models to quantify the effects of wind- and buoyancy-driven ocean circulation changes under various anthropogenic forcings. The work will examine coupled changes in atmospheric and wind-driven ocean circulations, impacts of Southern Ocean changes, and distinctions between climate model simulations. The funding will also train one postdoctoral scholar and one Ph.D. student. Outreach activities will include incorporating research into an undergraduate course, mentoring undergraduates, and conducting workshops, public lectures, and a summer research program for K-12 students.
