This $745,652 National Science Foundation project grant supports research into atmospheric boundary layers in extreme Alaskan winter conditions from December 2022 through November 2025. Funded under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050), the University of Alaska Fairbanks will investigate boundary layer dynamics and turbulence regimes in cold, dark atmospheres. Researchers will conduct intensive field experiments using surface instruments, remote sensing, and unmanned aircraft to document...
This $526,119 Project Grant awarded by the National Science Foundation (NSF) Geosciences program on February 15, 2024 will support research by the University of California, Berkeley to develop new scale-aware turbulence parameterizations for high-resolution weather prediction models. The goal is to improve the accuracy of weather and regional climate forecasts in the "gray zone" between 1-10 km grid resolutions, where traditional modeling approaches break down. The research aims to...
