The National Science Foundation (NSF) awarded a $952,374 Project Grant under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) to the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution (WHOI) to conduct research on changes in the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC) during the last deglaciation. The project aims to quantify AMOC changes by combining data from deep-sea sediments, deep-sea corals, and computer models of ocean circulation. The research will yield insights into the processes leading to rapid...
The Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution received a $453,110 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation Division of Ocean Sciences. The grant was awarded on September 1, 2021 under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) to support research examining the Zonal Overturning Circulation through August 31, 2024. Funding will allow Woods Hole to conduct basic research investigating ocean circulation patterns and dynamics as part of efforts to strengthen understanding of Earth's integrated...
This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) provides $644,088 to the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution (WHOI) to analyze 10 years of data from the West Greenland mooring array in the Eastern Labrador Sea. The research project aims to quantify the temporal variability of the oceanic circulation, heat and salt transports, water mass components, and eddy processes in the West Greenland boundary current system. It will also characterize the...
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...
