This Project Grant award of $250,363 from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) aims to advance the capabilities of the Community Earth System Model (CESM), a widely used Earth system model, by creating optimized configurations of its ocean component, Modular Ocean Model Version 6 (MOM6). The project's key objectives are to enable new high-resolution (10-25 km) and ultra-high-resolution (~3-5 km) frontier applications and science within CESM3, particularly for understanding physical processes, upper-ocean and air-sea interactions, teleconnection patterns, and their interplay with ocean biogeochemistry at small spatial scales. The project will create a GPU-enabled and optimized MOM6 configuration to leverage future GPU-based supercomputing systems, supporting the training and education of students as well as the broader research, policymaking, and stakeholder communities. This award, effective from July 1, 2025, to June 30, 2030, is being led by Texas A&M University, a prominent public land-grant research institution.
