The National Science Foundation (NSF) Division of Atmospheric and Geospace Sciences awarded a $596,537 Project Grant to the University of Chicago to conduct collaborative research on understanding the impact of Arctic sea ice loss on summertime climate change. This 3-year award, which runs from July 1, 2023 to June 30, 2026, is funded under the NSF Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) to support basic research that expands knowledge and understanding of the Earth system. The key objectives of the...
This National Science Foundation Project Grant of $646,193 will fund research into the impact of Arctic amplification on midlatitude circulation from August 15, 2022 to July 31, 2025. The award was made under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050), which supports basic research into the integrated Earth system. The grantee, Columbia University, will examine how Arctic sea ice loss and surface warming influence atmospheric circulation patterns and extreme weather events in the Northern Hemisphere....
This Project Grant from the National Science Foundation Division of Polar Programs, under the Polar Programs federal grant program (CFDA 47.078), provides $560,052 to Colorado State University to improve seasonal sea ice extent predictability in the Arctic Ocean. The research aims to use ocean heat patterns and the timing of autumn sea ice freeze up from reanalysis data and the CESM2 Large Ensemble to evaluate which environmental variables most significantly contribute to sea ice loss. The grant...
Colorado State University was awarded a $795,202 Project Grant from the National Science Foundation Division of Atmospheric and Geospace Sciences. The award is part of the NSF's Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) to strengthen understanding of the integrated Earth system through basic research in atmospheric, earth, and ocean sciences. Under the three-year award beginning September 1, 2021, Colorado State University will research the influence of climate change on temperature persistence. The...
This $513,000 Project Grant award was provided by the National Science Foundation (NSF) Division of Polar Programs from August 1, 2023 to July 31, 2026. The grant supports collaborative research by the University of Colorado to assess the causal influence of atmospheric opacity (clouds) and sea ice thickness on Arctic warming over the past 40 years and into the near future. Key deliverables include quantifying the impact of these factors on Arctic warming rates using a novel modeling approach,...
This $707,741 project grant from the National Science Foundation Division of Atmospheric and Geospace Sciences Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) will fund research into dynamical mechanisms for midlatitude-arctic interactions and associated weather extremes in a warming climate. The University of California, Los Angeles will examine several interrelated dynamical mechanisms through three tasks from April 15, 2023 to March 31, 2026. The researchers will analyze linkages between stratospheric...
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...
This $1.5 million National Science Foundation project grant supports research into secondary marine aerosol precursors and their links to aerosol growth during Arctic sea ice melt onset. Funded under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050), the goal is to advance understanding of secondary marine aerosol formation in the atmosphere and its impact on cloud properties and climate. Colorado State University will conduct measurements of volatile organic compounds and reduced sulfur compounds aboard...
This National Science Foundation (NSF) Project Grant award under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) provides $478,234 to Colorado State University (CSU) to conduct collaborative research on the prevalence and role of ice nucleating particles in the eastern Atlantic Ocean. The research team will use a set of drones and other advanced instrumentation during a research cruise on the German research vessel Meteor in summer 2025 to study the impacts of these particles on precipitation,...
This National Science Foundation (NSF) Division of Atmospheric and Geospace Sciences Project Grant award, with a total funding amount of $532,712, supports collaborative research to investigate the physical processes underlying transitions in marine stratocumulus cloud cover over the eastern North Atlantic region. The research aims to develop a causal framework to better understand the complex interactions that drive changes in cloud structure, from continuous stratocumulus layers to more broken...
