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 National Science Foundation Project Grant of $1,078,024 will fund research to reconstruct climate linkages across the tropical oceans over the last millennium through May 2025. Under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050), which supports basic research in atmospheric, earth, and ocean sciences, the University of Michigan will produce new paleoclimate records of sea surface temperature using the geochemistry of long-lived corals from the tropical North Atlantic and western Indian Ocean....
This $440,785 project grant from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) will fund research at the University of Miami to model how El Niño-Southern Oscillation patterns may change under future climate conditions and how those changes could alter related terrestrial impacts across North America. Over a three-year period ending in October 2025, the grantee will use sophisticated computer simulations to systematically test scenarios of potential ENSO variability and...
This Project Grant award for $561,110, granted by the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Division of Atmospheric and Geospace Sciences under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050), supports research examining the role of aerosols in driving multivariate climate hazards, such as concurrent extreme events of fire weather, humid-heat, and drought. The project aims to: Develop methodologies to uncover the influence of aerosols on multivariate climate extremes using climate models, and 2) Educate the...
This National Science Foundation (NSF) Project Grant award under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) provides $895,896 from March 1, 2025 to February 29, 2028 to the University of Miami's Rosenstiel School of Marine and Atmospheric Science (RSMAS) to conduct research on the dynamics and meridional heat transport of the Agulhas Return Current in the Southern Ocean. The research will examine mesoscale eddies, interannual-to-decadal variability, and climate change impacts on the Agulhas Return...
The University of Miami received a $708,450 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation Division of Atmospheric and Geospace Sciences to conduct collaborative research on El Niño/Southern Oscillation predictability from June 1, 2023 to May 31, 2027. Through numerical simulations using the Community Earth System Model, the University will analyze the role of initial ocean conditions and atmospheric noise in limiting the predictability of ENSO events. Software and relevant datasets...
This $172,778 project grant from the National Science Foundation Division of Ocean Sciences, under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050), will fund research to test climate model predictions of hydrologic change in the tropical Atlantic during a past warm period. Specifically, the awardee, Utah State University, will geochemically analyze oxygen isotopes and magnesium-to-calcium ratios in planktonic foraminifera from deep-sea sediment cores at several sites, including Ocean Drilling Project Site...
The National Science Foundation (NSF) awarded a $601,138 Project Grant under its Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) to The Johns Hopkins University to conduct research on the nonlinearity and feedbacks in the atmospheric circulation response to increased carbon dioxide (CO2). The research aims to understand the mechanisms driving differences in circulation changes across climate models and the causes of nonlinear responses, such as the rapid weakening of the Atlantic Meridional Overturning...
The National Science Foundation Division of Atmospheric and Geospace Sciences awarded a $390,804 Project Grant to the University of Miami Rosenstiel School of Marine and Atmospheric Science under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050). The grant will fund research into atmospheric lakes of vapor drifting over the east coast of Africa from January 1, 2022 to December 31, 2024. As part of the Geosciences program's goal of expanding knowledge of the integrated Earth system through basic research,...
This National Science Foundation (NSF) Geosciences program Project Grant award of $206,999 to the University of Miami Rosenstiel Marine Division, a research division of the University of Miami, will support a collaborative research project titled "NSFGEO-NERC: COLLABORATIVE RESEARCH: ROLE OF THE OVERTURNING CIRCULATION IN CARBON ACCUMULATION (ROCCA)." The project aims to quantify carbon uptake and transport in the North Atlantic Ocean and investigate the relationship between the...
