This $359,645 project grant awarded by the National Science Foundation (NSF) Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) will fund collaborative research to observe and model primary and secondary gravity waves over the Andes region. The primary objectives are to: (a) improve understanding of both primary and secondary gravity wave dynamics, and (b) advance knowledge of turbulence and instability processes in the atmosphere and other geophysical fluids. The project plans to integrate satellite,...
This $188,835 Project Grant award, made by the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050), will support research to determine how the breaking of mountain waves affects space weather approximately 100-200 miles above the Earth's surface. The award will fund a collaborative research effort by The Johns Hopkins University to: 1) Characterize the gravity wave characteristics and sources of concentric traveling ionospheric disturbances over the continental U.S. and...
This $368,409 federal Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) supports a collaborative research project titled "CEDAR--Sources of Gravity Waves in the Thermosphere." The project aims to investigate the relative contributions of different lower atmospheric and upper atmospheric sources to the observed large-scale gravity waves in the thermosphere, and their impacts on tides, planetary waves, and atmospheric circulations. The...
This $719,982 federal Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation (NSF) under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) will support collaborative research to investigate how the breaking of mountain waves affects space weather at altitudes of 100-200 miles above the Earth's surface. The research team from Northwest Research Associates, Inc. (Nwra) will study the impact of these mountain wave-driven turbulence and large-scale waves on the formation of traveling ionospheric...
This National Science Foundation Project Grant of $523,833 will fund research into impacts of atmospheric waves and geomagnetic disturbances on space weather through April 2025. Under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050), which supports basic research to increase understanding of the integrated Earth system, the awardee Clemson University will collaborate with Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, New Jersey Institute of Technology, and Virginia...
Under a $717,310 Project Grant awarded by the National Science Foundation (NSF) Division of Atmospheric and Geospace Sciences, the University of Miami Rosenstiel School of Marine and Atmospheric Science will conduct research on using satellite imagery to study internal gravity waves in the atmosphere. The project aims to develop and automate image processing algorithms to measure and characterize the properties of these waves, which can modulate cloud formation and impact Earth's heat budget....
This National Science Foundation (NSF) Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) Project Grant award in the amount of $353,715 will fund a collaborative research project to study the turbulence in the stratified layer at the air-water interface, as driven by waves and wind. The project will utilize a combination of controlled laboratory experiments and advanced numerical simulations (large-eddy simulations) to test the hypothesis that coupling between waves and wind-driven currents is necessary to...
This $212,120 National Science Foundation Project Grant under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) funds research into the impacts of atmospheric waves and geomagnetic disturbances on space weather conditions. Led by the Massachusetts Institute of Technology in collaboration with Clemson University, Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University, New Jersey Institute of Technology, and Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University from May 1, 2022 to April 30, 2025, the research will advance...
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...
This $424,952 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) supports collaborative research on the linkages between tropical deep convection, planetary-scale stationary waves, and extratropical storm track activity. The primary objectives are to demonstrate these linkages, identify the underlying physical mechanisms, and assess how well climate and subseasonal-to-seasonal prediction models capture these processes. The research will be conducted by...
