This National Science Foundation (NSF) Project Grant awarded under the Polar Programs (CFDA 47.078) federal grant program provides $194,921 to The Regents of the University of Colorado to conduct collaborative research aimed at understanding regional modes of climate variability in the Atlantic Arctic. The key products and services to be delivered under this 2-year award include:
Identifying and analyzing long-term patterns of climate variability in the Atlantic Arctic region by integrating data from various sources, such as meteorological/oceanographic measurements, historical observations, and climate proxy data from tree rings, sediments, and glacial ice. A focus will be on quantifying interdecadal (20-30 years) and multidecadal (50-90 years) climate signals and their linkages to the Atlantic Multidecadal Variability phenomenon. The research also aims to reconstruct changes in extreme weather patterns in the region by combining data from Svalbard, Greenland, and Scandinavia. In addition to the scientific research, the project will provide training opportunities for graduate students and engage the public through outreach activities.
