This Project Grant award, valued at $786,467.00 and provided by the National Science Foundation (NSF) under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050), is focused on advancing the understanding of mesoscale air-sea coupling and its impact on climate variability over the Southern Ocean. The key products and services to be delivered under this award include: The University of Miami's Rosenstiel School of Marine and Atmospheric Science (RSMAS) will lead a collaborative research effort using a...
This $784,389 National Science Foundation project grant under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) supports research into the causes of sea surface temperature fluctuations in the North Atlantic Ocean and their climatic impacts. The University of California, Riverside will conduct climate model simulations using the Community Earth System Model to explore the roles of natural variability versus external forcing factors like anthropogenic aerosols in driving the temperature changes. Specific...
This $302,035 Project Grant awarded by the National Science Foundation (NSF) Division of Ocean Sciences under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) will fund an observational study at Texas A&M University to quantify the impact of nearshore processes on air-sea momentum transfer. The project aims to identify and systematically measure coastal processes and features that alter nearshore air-sea momentum exchange, leveraging an extensive data set collected at the Army Field Research Facility...
The National Science Foundation (NSF) has awarded a 3-year, $575,150 Project Grant to Florida State University (FSU) under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) to study the impacts of ocean surface currents and waves on atmospheric boundary layer processes over the Gulf Stream. The research aims to determine how coupling of winds, currents, and waves modifies the budgets of heat, moisture, and momentum, as well as the extent to which vertical transport within the atmospheric boundary layer...
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 $202,000 federal Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) will support observational and modeling research to address critical gaps in understanding the production and distribution of giant sea salt aerosols (GSSA) in the atmosphere. The research, conducted by a postdoctoral fellow, will involve field measurements of GSSA using specialized instrumentation during research cruises from Hawaii, which will be combined with large eddy...
This $415,924 federal Project Grant award, funded by the National Science Foundation's Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050), will support collaborative research to investigate the large-scale dynamics of the tropical Indo-Pacific region during the Last Glacial Maximum. The project aims to reconstruct the tropical thermocline structure and wind patterns using ocean modeling and geochemical analysis of foraminifera sediment samples. This research will lead to a better understanding of how the...
The University of Washington was awarded a three-year, $689,979 project grant from the National Science Foundation Division of Atmospheric and Geospace Sciences under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050). The grant will fund research to enhance understanding of mesoscale climate responses through use of a regional climate model ensemble. Specifically, the University will leverage a suite of regional climate models to simulate mesoscale climate processes and better understand how they may change...
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 three-year, $358,347 project grant from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) will support research to determine the role of ocean dynamics in Atlantic sea surface temperature variations using coupled climate models. The Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution will lead a collaborative effort to develop a hierarchy of coupled climate models within the Community Earth System Model version 2 platform. Comparisons between model pairs that disable specific oceanic...
