- This Project Grant award of $460,099.00 from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) will fund a 3-year research project at Purdue University to investigate how the expansion rate of tropical cyclones (hurricanes) changes with global warming. The key research objectives are to: Quantify the dependence of tropical cyclone expansion rate on sea surface temperature using historical data, climate model simulations, and limited-area cloud-permitting model experiments. This...
- This Project Grant from the National Science Foundation's Division of Atmospheric and Geospace Sciences, under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050), provides $701,663 to Florida State University to conduct collaborative research on the intensity and size relationship of tropical cyclones. The research aims to better understand this relationship through exploring how the inward radial loss rate of absolute angular momentum and effective absolute angular momentum values depend on environmental...
- This three-year, $533,747 project grant from the National Science Foundation Division of Atmospheric and Geospace Sciences will fund research into how the intensity and impacts of tropical cyclones may change in response to climate warming after landfall. Specifically, the grantee will conduct idealized and real-data case studies in pseudo-global warming scenarios to assess potential shifts in tropical cyclone activity and landfall location, changes in precipitation patterns and the extent of...
- This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) to Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University, Inc. in the amount of $374,070 aims to better understand how different types of precipitation in tropical cyclones impact their maximum sustained wind speeds. The 4-year project will use airborne Doppler radar data and numerical weather prediction models to examine how precipitation modes, such as convection and stratiform rain, perturb the kinematic...
- This National Science Foundation Project Grant award of $372,445 provides funding from May 1, 2022 through April 30, 2025 under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) to support collaborative research on the intensity and size relationship of tropical cyclones. The University of Maryland, College Park will train two Ph.D. students and one postdoc in atmospheric dynamics, modeling, and data science while working with an undergraduate student to launch experimental forecasts for tropical cyclone...
- This National Science Foundation Project Grant under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) totaling $126,436 will fund research at Princeton University from September 2022 to August 2024 to assess climate and stochastic forcing of North Atlantic tropical cyclone activity over the past millennium. The researchers will generate tropical cyclone datasets from multiple model simulations of the last 1,000 years and investigate relationships between past modeled tropical cyclone responses and climatic...
- This Project Grant award, provided by the National Science Foundation's Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050), supports collaborative research to study the characteristics of small-scale vortices within mature hurricanes. The primary objective is to gain a deeper understanding, both theoretically and numerically, of how these meso- and miso-scale vortices form within the hurricane eye and eyewall, and to develop methods to better identify and quantify their structures. This $177,044 award, effective...
- This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) is focused on advancing the understanding and prediction of tropical cyclone formation, known as "genesis." The $499,557 award to the University of Miami will utilize conventional and AI techniques, ensemble forecasts, and advanced modeling to investigate the multiscale processes and predictability of low-probability tropical cyclogenesis. The research aims to provide insights to...
