The University of Hawaii at Manoa received a $1,434,481 project grant award from the National Science Foundation Division of Atmospheric and Geospace Sciences on September 1, 2021 to complete the project by August 31, 2024. The grant funding will support the acquisition of a Hawaii statewide mesonet to strengthen understanding of the integrated Earth system through basic research in atmospheric and earth sciences, as outlined in the Geosciences program administered by NSF under the CFDA number...
This National Science Foundation Project Grant of $718,487 supports research into the drivers of regional climate change patterns and their implications. Funded under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050), the award runs from May 1, 2022 to April 30, 2027. The principal investigator and collaborators from multiple international institutions will use a suite of climate model experiments to further understanding of the physical mechanisms influencing sea surface temperature warming patterns in key...
This three-year Project Grant from the National Science Foundation's Office of Integrative Activities provides $169,231 to the University of Hawaii at Manoa for collaborative research titled "Connected to Earth: Cross-Cultural Knowledge Exchange for Advancing Earth Science Learning." The award falls under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050), which aims to strengthen the geosciences field through basic research on Earth systems. Specifically, the University of Hawaii will leverage its...
This National Science Foundation (NSF) Integrative Activities (CFDA 47.083) Project Grant award of $290,165 to the University of Hawaii (UH) at Manoa will support a collaborative research project to improve subseasonal-to-seasonal (S2S) forecasting of extreme hydrometeorological events and their impacts in Hawaii. The project aims to deepen the understanding of intraseasonal climate variability in the central Pacific and develop an S2S forecast system for events like heavy rainfall, flooding,...
This National Science Foundation (NSF) Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) Project Grant award of $168,845 to the University of Hawaii at Manoa aims to advance the understanding of the subseasonal-to-seasonal variability of wildfires in Hawaii and improve the accuracy of long-term wildfire forecasting. The research will use a combination of historical data and reanalysis techniques to quantify the variability of wildfires and fire weather in Hawaii, and identify the climatic factors contributing...
The National Science Foundation (NSF) awarded a $199,948 Project Grant under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) to the University of Hawaii at Manoa. The grant, effective October 1, 2023 through September 30, 2024, will support research examining the ecological impacts of the 2023 Lahaina, Maui wildfire on nearby coral reef ecosystems. The project employs a "before-after control-impact" design to compare affected and unaffected reefs, focusing on the effects of runoff containing...
This National Science Foundation Project Grant award of $635,123, effective March 1, 2025 through February 29, 2028, supports fundamental research under the Geosciences (CFDA 47.050) program to investigate recent changes in the Kuroshio Extension, a major ocean current system in the North Pacific. The University of Hawaii at Manoa, the awardee, will examine the causes and implications of a detected "regime shift" in the Kuroshio Extension, including analyzing available data, reanalysis...
This three-year National Science Foundation project grant of $1,309,760 will fund research into the relationship between tropical Pacific climate influences and atmospheric blocking events across different timescales. Specifically, the University of Hawaii at Manoa will investigate how El Niño-Southern Oscillation diversity and changes in the tropical Pacific mean state impact blocking characteristics and extreme weather event frequency in observations, past climate experiments, and new...
This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation (NSF) Division of Information and Intelligent Systems, under the Computer and Information Science and Engineering program (CFDA 47.070), will support the development of machine learning methods for estimating the risk of adverse weather and climate events, such as rapid changes in solar power generation and flooding. The University of Hawaii at Manoa, as the prime contractor, will apply advances in generative artificial intelligence...
