This $628,283 federal Project Grant award, provided by the National Science Foundation's (NSF) STEM Education program (CFDA 47.076), will fund the development and testing of ACTLOCAL - an online platform that enables K-12 teachers, students, and the public to create localized climate change adaptation simulations for any location in the contiguous United States. The goal is to help students understand the scientific process of climate change, its social and economic impacts, and empower them...
This $526,119 Project Grant awarded by the National Science Foundation (NSF) Geosciences program on February 15, 2024 will support research by the University of California, Berkeley to develop new scale-aware turbulence parameterizations for high-resolution weather prediction models. The goal is to improve the accuracy of weather and regional climate forecasts in the "gray zone" between 1-10 km grid resolutions, where traditional modeling approaches break down. The research aims to...
This federal Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's STEM Education program (CFDA 47.076) provides $1,514,073 to The Regents of the University of Colorado, doing business as the University of Colorado, to investigate how to support middle grades science teachers in integrating data literacy and data sense-making into their classroom instruction. The project uses an instructional framework called "Data Puzzles" that integrates mathematical and computational thinking...
This $269,884 project grant from the National Science Foundation's Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) supports the Collaborative Research: Biorets project. The project engages pairs of high school teachers from schools serving marginalized STEM student populations in authentic research experiences at three Long Term Ecological Research sites spanning Arctic, temperate forest, and coastal marine ecosystems. Over an 18-month period, teacher pairs will conduct field and lab research with...
This $696,515 Project Grant from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) supports research and outreach on variations in the pace of surface temperature change. The awardee, University of California Santa Cruz, will conduct statistical analysis of global climate observations to identify regions and periods with accelerated warming rates over the past two centuries. Model simulations will determine the causes of detected changes and quantify future warming rates...
This $521,375 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) aims to increase diversity in the geosciences by supporting high school teachers in the Pajaro Valley Unified School District (PVUSD) to build their science programs.
