- This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) provides $762,428 to the University of Rochester to examine the generation and release of potential energy within the oceanic circulation system. The project will utilize a combination of numerical models, advanced observations from Argo floats, and rigorous analysis techniques to investigate how mesoscale eddies (200-500 km in size) act as significant net generators of potential energy through...
- The National Science Foundation awarded a $913,292 Project Grant under the Geosciences (CFDA 47.050) program to the University of Washington (UW) to study the dynamics and impact of submesoscale density fronts in the global ocean. The 5-year research project will use existing shipboard and satellite data to investigate the global patterns of submesoscale variability and the role of these small, energetic ocean fronts in heat and property exchange, energy transfer, and biogeochemical processes....
- The National Science Foundation (NSF), through its Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050), awarded a $311,449 Project Grant to Northwest Research Associates, Inc. (dba Nwra) to study the global distribution of two key ocean properties related to wind-driven internal wave energy. The award will fund a high-resolution, process-based numerical modeling effort to determine the mechanisms associated with "transmissivity" (the fraction of wind-induced energy that propagates into the ocean...
- The University of Washington will receive $296,508 under a two-year Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation Division of Ocean Sciences. The grant will support research into the vertical transport of buoyant, non-spherical particles in the wind-mixed ocean surface boundary layer from August 1, 2021 to July 31, 2023. This work falls under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050), which aims to strengthen the national scientific enterprise through expanded fundamental knowledge and...
- This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) will fund research to investigate the interactions between internal waves and submesoscale currents in the ocean's bottom boundary layer. The total award is $418,382 over a period of 3 years, from June 1, 2024 to May 31, 2027. The research will combine theoretical concepts, analyses of existing measurements, and computer modeling to assess how these wave-current interactions affect mixing and...
- The University of Miami received a three-year $158,992 Project Grant from the National Science Foundation Division of Ocean Sciences under the Geosciences federal grant program (CFDA 47.050). The grant supports a collaborative research effort to conduct a global census of submesoscale ocean energetics using in-situ drifter observations and high-resolution ocean modeling. Products and services to be delivered include quantifying global submesoscale kinetic energy content and its dynamical...
- The University of Washington was awarded a two-year $436,735 project grant from the National Science Foundation Division of Ocean Sciences under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050). The grant will support the numerical investigation and validation of stratified up-side down Langmuir turbulence from September 1, 2021 to August 31, 2023. As part of its mission to strengthen the national scientific enterprise's understanding of the integrated Earth system, the Geosciences program aims to expand...
- This National Science Foundation (NSF) project grant awarded to the Planetary Science Institute will study the global distribution of two key ocean properties related to wind-driven energy - transmissivity (the fraction of wind energy that propagates into the ocean interior) and mixing efficiency (the portion of energy that goes into mixing versus dissipation). The $242,731 award, funded through NSF's Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050), will leverage a high-resolution numerical model to...
- This $598,349 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) will support fundamental research to determine how coupled air-sea interactions modify the lifecycle of near-inertial waves (NIWs) in the ocean, from generation at the surface to dissipation in the interior. The research will use high-resolution coupled ocean-atmosphere models and recent observations to improve understanding of the relevant physical mechanisms and the impact on ocean...
