This National Science Foundation (NSF) Geosciences program award, titled "ALPACA - Advancing the Long-Range Prediction, Attribution, and Forecast Calibration of AMOC and its Climate Impacts", provides $615,117 to the University Corporation for Atmospheric Research (UCAR) to conduct research aimed at improving predictions of the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC) and its climate impacts on seasonal-to-decadal timescales. The project will utilize AMOC observations,...
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...
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 $771,667 federal Project Grant award, administered by the National Science Foundation's Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050), supports fundamental research to examine the behavior of the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC) and its link to past climate change during the last ice age climate cycle. The project aims to leverage deep-sea sediment cores to reconstruct North Atlantic ocean circulation patterns and improve understanding of the ocean's role in driving dramatic shifts in...
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 National Science Foundation (NSF) Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) Project Grant award in the amount of $202,000 will support research on the effect of carbon dioxide (CO2) ramping rate on the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC) and its coupled climate implications. The principal investigator will conduct long-term simulations using the Community Earth System Model (CESM) to examine how the rate of CO2 increase impacts AMOC weakening and subsequent recovery, as well as the...
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 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...
