- This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Polar Programs (CFDA 47.078) is for $423,761 and will be executed from September 1, 2025 to August 31, 2028. The grant will support collaborative research to advance coupled atmosphere-ocean-sea ice modeling of the Antarctic region. The project aims to enhance the representation of atmospheric cloud physics and ocean-sea ice heat exchange in state-of-the-science models. This will enable more realistic simulations of the marine...
- This $1,185,628 National Science Foundation Project Grant under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) funds research at the University of Miami Rosenstiel School of Marine and Atmospheric Science examining the evolving role of the ocean and atmosphere in decadal to multidecadal climate variability modes. The principal investigators aim to determine if climate modes characterized by alternating 20-40 year warming and cooling episodes in the North Atlantic, such as the Atlantic Multidecadal...
- The National Science Foundation (NSF) has awarded a 3-year, $575,150 Project Grant to Florida State University (FSU) under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) to study the impacts of ocean surface currents and waves on atmospheric boundary layer processes over the Gulf Stream. The research aims to determine how coupling of winds, currents, and waves modifies the budgets of heat, moisture, and momentum, as well as the extent to which vertical transport within the atmospheric boundary layer...
- Oregon State University was awarded a $680,529 project grant from the National Science Foundation Division of Ocean Sciences under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050). The award will fund research from August 2021 through July 2024 to study the environmental consequences of expanded recruitment of an ecosystem engineer on a hypoxia-influenced continental shelf. The Geosciences program supports basic research to strengthen understanding of Earth's integrated systems through atmospheric,...
- Oregon State University was awarded a three-year, $452,842 Project Grant from the National Science Foundation Division of Ocean Sciences through the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050). The grant will fund collaborative research examining tradeoffs between phenology and geography constraints in species' responses to climate change across life cycles. As part of its mission to strengthen the national science enterprise through expanded fundamental knowledge of the integrated Earth system, the NSF...
- Oregon State University was awarded a $612,636 Project Grant from the National Science Foundation Division of Ocean Sciences on June 15, 2021, with a completion date of May 31, 2024. The award will support collaborative research titled "Mixing and the Meridional Overturning Circulation in the Modern and Glacial Ocean" under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050). The Geosciences program seeks to expand fundamental knowledge and understanding of Earth's integrated system through basic...
The Ohio State University received a $652,363 Project Grant from the National Science Foundation (NSF) Division of Atmospheric and Geospace Sciences under the Geosciences CFDA program. The grant supports research to quantify the contributions of atmospheric and oceanic forcing to low-frequency sea surface temperature (SST) variability in the North Atlantic and North Pacific oceans. The project uses a stochastic model to analyze observational datasets and climate model simulations to understand the mechanisms driving large-scale, long-term SST changes and their potential for predictability. This work has societal value in improving understanding of phenomena like the Atlantic Multidecadal Oscillation and its impacts on events like Atlantic hurricane activity and the Sahel drought. The grant also provides support and training for two graduate students in this research area. This award reflects NSF's mission to advance fundamental knowledge through the support of basic research in Earth system science.
