This National Science Foundation Project Grant of $409,185 will support research to assess the predictability of annual to decadal sea level variability on global scales. Funded through the Geosciences program under the CFDA number 47.050, this research aims to quantify the ability of community Earth system models to simulate and predict sea level changes over timeframes relevant for coastal planning. Specifically, the awardee Atmospheric & Environmental Research Inc. will determine the...
This $191,762 National Science Foundation project grant supports research to assess the predictability of annual to decadal sea level variability on global scales. Funded through the Geosciences program under the NSF Division of Ocean Sciences, the University Corporation for Atmospheric Research will collaborate with the National Center for Atmospheric Research to conduct simulations using the Community Earth System Model. The simulations at 1 and 0.1 degree resolutions will be evaluated against...
This $221,255 National Science Foundation Project Grant under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) will fund research to better understand spatial variability in sea level change during the last interglacial period approximately 120,000 years ago. The grantee will develop high-resolution global models of mantle flow to predict dynamic topography change across the greater Caribbean region over this timeframe. They will also compile a comprehensive dataset of interglacial sea level indicators...
The National Science Foundation (NSF) Geosciences program awarded a $624,127 Project Grant to Florida State University (FSU) to study the impact of ocean dynamics on coastal sea level changes in the eastern Atlantic region. The award, titled "OCEAN DYNAMICS IMPACTING SHELF SEA LEVEL IN EASTERN ATLANTIC (ODISSEA)," will combine direct observations and numerical modeling to quantify the drivers of regional sea level variability and extremes, with a focus on understanding the influence of...
This $784,389 National Science Foundation project grant under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) supports research into the causes of sea surface temperature fluctuations in the North Atlantic Ocean and their climatic impacts. The University of California, Riverside will conduct climate model simulations using the Community Earth System Model to explore the roles of natural variability versus external forcing factors like anthropogenic aerosols in driving the temperature changes. Specific...
This Cooperative Agreement, awarded by the Department of Commerce National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) under the Climate and Atmospheric Research program (CFDA 11.431), provides $487,987 to Atmospheric & Environmental Research Inc. to analyze emerging global ocean model simulations in order to improve seasonal to annual (S2A) forecasts of coastal sea level variability. The key objectives are to quantify resolution-related enhancements in the ability to forecast both...
This three-year, $358,347 project grant from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) will support research to determine the role of ocean dynamics in Atlantic sea surface temperature variations using coupled climate models. The Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution will lead a collaborative effort to develop a hierarchy of coupled climate models within the Community Earth System Model version 2 platform. Comparisons between model pairs that disable specific oceanic...
This Project Grant from the National Science Foundation's Division of Ocean Sciences, under the Geosciences federal grant program (CFDA 47.050), provides $726,244 to Rutgers, The State University for research correcting seasonal biases in sea surface temperature proxies. The research aims to improve paleoceanographic reconstructions by developing approaches to extract seasonal and mean annual temperature records from proxies. It will test these approaches in climate models under different...
North Carolina State University will receive $207,801 from the National Science Foundation under the agency's Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) to determine the role of ocean dynamics in Atlantic sea surface temperature variations using coupled climate models. Through a three-year project grant awarded September 1, 2022, the university will develop a hierarchy of coupled climate models within the Community Earth System Model version 2 platform to quantitatively assess how one-dimensional ocean...
The University of California San Diego's Scripps Institution of Oceanography was awarded a three-year, $635,163 Project Grant from the National Science Foundation to conduct research titled "Collaborative Research: Transient Response of Regional Sea Level to Antarctic Ice Shelf Fluxes." Under the NSF's Geosciences program (CFDA #47.050), which supports basic research in the atmospheric, earth, and ocean sciences to strengthen the national scientific enterprise's understanding of the...
