This National Science Foundation (NSF) Geosciences program Project Grant award of $381,865 to Colorado State University aims to understand how the predictability of severe weather events, such as tornadoes, hail, and flooding, may change as the climate warms. The research will generate and analyze large datasets of numerical weather model forecasts to assess how the ability to predict severe storms evolves in recent (20th century) versus future (21st century) climate scenarios. This work could...
This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) will support research by Texas Tech University to investigate the predictability of severe weather events, such as tornadoes, hail, and flooding, under current and future climate conditions. The $380,904 award, effective from September 1, 2023 to August 31, 2026, will involve creating and analyzing large datasets of numerical weather model forecasts to understand how and why the predictability of...
This is a National Science Foundation (NSF) Project Grant award under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) totaling $1,010,185 with a period of performance from September 1, 2024 to August 31, 2029. The award was made to Cornell University to conduct research that applies extreme event attribution methodologies to quantify the influence of stratospheric variability, such as sudden stratospheric warmings, on the likelihood and severity of subseasonal extreme weather events like cold air...
The Research Foundation for the State University of New York will manage a $234,022 National Science Foundation Project Grant under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) to characterize boundary-layer convective precipitation in Arctic cold air outbreaks. Through May 2026, the Foundation will support analysis of observational data from the Cold-Air Outbreak Experiment in the Sub-Arctic Region field campaign. A researcher at the State University of New York Oswego will document characteristics of...
