- 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 National Science Foundation (NSF) Project Grant award under CFDA 47.050 - Geosciences program provides $181,787 to the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) to study the role of wind and waves in mixing the upper ocean. The 3-year project, effective July 1, 2024, will carry out simulations with laboratory experiments and computer models to test the hypothesis that coupling currents and waves is necessary to reliably represent the deepening of the ocean surface layer. The research aims...
