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...
This National Science Foundation (NSF) Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) Project Grant award provides $585,115 to the American Museum of Natural History (AMNH) in New York to conduct collaborative research on multi-century records of the Florida Current, a critical component of the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC). The project aims to utilize previously collected coral samples from the Florida Straits and Tobago to reconstruct natural variability in Florida Current flow over...
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...
This National Science Foundation (NSF) Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) Project Grant award of $202,000 supports research on the effects of carbon dioxide (CO2) ramping rate on the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC) and its coupled climate implications. The research, conducted at the University of Washington, examines the physical mechanisms and impacts of AMOC weakening due to varying rates of CO2 increase, including the potential for abrupt AMOC slowdown or collapse and...
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 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 $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...
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 three-year, $177,799 National Science Foundation Project Grant through the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) will fund research to advance understanding of glacial-age western North Atlantic hydrography. The Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution will synthesize existing sediment property data from 30% more deep-sea sediment cores collected between 1994 and 2021. Isotopic and radiocarbon analyses of microfossils from cores spanning the upper 2 km of the region will provide new insights...
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...
