This National Science Foundation (NSF) Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (CFDA 47.075) Project Grant award of $184,642 to The Trustees of the University of Pennsylvania supports the development of high-resolution urban heat exposure models and mapping at the pedestrian level. The project uses urban microclimate modeling, geospatial analytics, and publicly available datasets to estimate and visualize the spatial and temporal variability of outdoor heat exposure within cities. This...
This $1,800,000 Project Grant awarded by the National Science Foundation (NSF) under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) supports research on promoting climate-resilient and equitable transit-oriented communities (TOCs) in the Denver metropolitan region. The key products and services to be delivered through this five-year project include: Analyzing the enabling conditions and constraints for policies that support climate-resilient and affordable TOC development across five U.S. states. This...
The National Science Foundation awarded a $647,273 Project Grant to Arizona State University under the Engineering (47.041) federal grant program. The grant will support research from 2021-2026 to develop coupled climate and human health models to build pathways for extreme heat resilience. Leveraging its expertise in climate modeling and epidemiology, ASU will integrate climate change projections with health vulnerability data to identify communities most at risk from rising temperatures. The...
This $177,996 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (CFDA 47.075) program will fund a multidisciplinary research project investigating the spatial and temporal patterns of urban heat island (UHI) and urban pollution island (UPI) interactions at the neighborhood level. The project, led by the University of California, Berkeley, aims to develop new geographical methods to transform knowledge about how UHIs and UPIs jointly impact...
This Project Grant award of $1,000,000 from the National Science Foundation (NSF) Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) will support the "RAISE: CHIRRP: ADVANCING ACTIONABLE UNDERSTANDING OF CHRONIC HEAT RISKS AND RESPONSE POTENTIALS IN THE URBANIZED SUBTROPICS" research project at the University of Miami. The goal is to advance the fundamental understanding of chronic heat hazards, how they translate into risks for people based on where they live and work, and how different adaptive...
The National Science Foundation (NSF) awarded a $175,000 Project Grant under the Mathematical and Physical Sciences program (CFDA 47.049) to Arizona State University to develop a geostatistical framework for modeling spatiotemporal extremes, such as heat waves, drought, and intense precipitation. The research aims to better understand the distributions of extreme weather events and develop statistical tools to model the associated spatial and temporal trends and uncertainties. The project will...
This National Science Foundation (NSF) Project Grant award for $399,934 to the Trustees of Boston University will examine climate action, financing, and justice issues in small and midsize cities in the United States. The funded project will survey 250 small and midsize cities to understand their climate action policies and programs, how they are funding these efforts, and how concerns about equity and justice factor into climate policymaking. The project will also conduct in-depth case...
The Arizona State University will receive $2 million from the National Science Foundation under the Engineering program (CFDA 47.041) to develop novel methods for assessing individual-level heat risk across diverse populations from 2022-2026. The university will merge an advanced mobile biometeorological station with a human-shaped thermal manikin to pioneer a field method measuring detailed human heat exposure. The manikin will measure heat load received by an average body and mimic...
This National Science Foundation (NSF) Project Grant award, funded under the Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (CFDA 47.075) program, provides $804,950 to investigate the effects of climate change on rural livelihoods, including food insecurity, health, migration, and changes to traditional practices. The award to the University of Colorado, Boulder will examine how environmental stressors impact vulnerable rural populations and whether they lead to increased social conflict or...
The National Science Foundation (NSF) Division of Mathematical Sciences awarded a 3-year, $150,000 Project Grant to The Regents of the University of Colorado (University of Colorado) to develop new statistical methods for analyzing extreme weather events such as heatwaves, droughts, and intense precipitation. The research, conducted under the NSF's Mathematical and Physical Sciences program (CFDA 47.049), aims to better understand the spatiotemporal distributions and trends of these extreme...
