The National Science Foundation (NSF) Directorate for Geosciences awarded this $406,911 Project Grant to the University Corporation for Atmospheric Research (UCAR) under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) to develop methods for enhancing spatiotemporal monitoring of the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC). The key objectives are to: 1) Design and implement a framework for reconstruction of AMOC from indirect observations, 2) Extend historical AMOC records using machine learning...
The Regents of the University of California at Riverside received a $325k project grant award from the National Science Foundation Division of Atmospheric and Geospace Sciences on July 15, 2021 to conduct collaborative research quantifying the global and regional impacts of the slowdown in the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation through June 30, 2024. The research aims to strengthen understanding of the integrated Earth system by expanding fundamental knowledge of the impacts of...
This National Science Foundation (NSF) Geosciences program Project Grant, awarded to the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution (WHOI) on December 15, 2023 for $217,938.00, will fund the MEZCAL project to expand observation-based records of the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC) spatially and over time. The key objectives are to: 1) Design and implement a spatiotemporally complete AMOC framework from indirect observations; 2) Extend AMOC records backwards in time using machine...
This Project Grant, awarded by the National Science Foundation's Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050), funds a collaborative research study to investigate the potential collapse of the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation and its implications for climate change. The $399,211 award to the University of Wisconsin-Madison covers a 3-year project period from February 1, 2024 to January 31, 2027. The research aims to compare statistical climate indices, simplified theoretical models, and...
The National Science Foundation Division of Atmospheric and Geospace Sciences awarded Yale University a $323,795 project grant under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) to conduct research quantifying global and regional impacts of the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation slowdown from 2021 to 2024. The grant supports collaborative research to strengthen understanding of the integrated Earth system through basic research in atmospheric, earth, and ocean sciences. Specifically, Yale...
This $184,955 project grant was awarded by the National Science Foundation's Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) to San Jose State University Research Foundation, doing business as San Jose State University. The project aims to 1) estimate the uptake, transport, and storage of carbon in the North Atlantic Ocean using new data and modeling approaches, and 2) quantify the role of the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC) in driving variability in the North Atlantic carbon sink. The...
This $191,762 National Science Foundation project grant supports research to assess the predictability of annual to decadal sea level variability on global scales. Funded through the Geosciences program under the NSF Division of Ocean Sciences, the University Corporation for Atmospheric Research will collaborate with the National Center for Atmospheric Research to conduct simulations using the Community Earth System Model. The simulations at 1 and 0.1 degree resolutions will be evaluated against...
This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) provides $284,446 to the University of North Carolina at Wilmington (UNCW) to conduct collaborative research on the potential collapse of the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation and its implications for climate change. The study will scrutinize recent predictions that such a collapse could occur in the mid-21st century, comparing statistical indices and simplified theoretical models to...
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...
This National Science Foundation (NSF) Geosciences program Project Grant award of $206,999 to the University of Miami Rosenstiel Marine Division, a research division of the University of Miami, will support a collaborative research project titled "NSFGEO-NERC: COLLABORATIVE RESEARCH: ROLE OF THE OVERTURNING CIRCULATION IN CARBON ACCUMULATION (ROCCA)." The project aims to quantify carbon uptake and transport in the North Atlantic Ocean and investigate the relationship between the...
