This Project Grant awarded by the National Science Foundation (NSF) under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) will provide $672,505 to Cleveland State University (CSU) to investigate how the canopy traits of different tree species, such as bark roughness and leaf angles, affect the partitioning of rainfall into interception, stemflow, and throughfall. The goal is to determine which canopy traits can best filter stormwater and reduce flooding in urban areas. The research team will use...
The National Science Foundation awarded a $188,280 Project Grant under its Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) to the Regents of the University of Minnesota. The grant supports a two-year planning effort to assess the synergies and trade-offs between the benefits and burdens of urban trees and forests. Key objectives include: (i) analyzing the convergent conditions of tree-related ecosystem services and disservices in metropolitan regions, (ii) evaluating tree species-level vulnerability to...
This Project Grant award, provided by the National Science Foundation (NSF) under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050), is aimed at understanding how forests respond to drought and high temperatures. The $290,728 award will fund research to unveil the role of hillslope hydrology in mediating ecosystem response to drought in forest ecosystems. The key products and services to be delivered include: Using a variety of tools, such as direct forest measurements and satellite observations, to...
This $211,743 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) aims to reduce uncertainties in tree-ring records of wet extremes to aid interpretations of past climate and plan for future changes. The primary objectives are to: Use dendrometers to measure how tree growth responds to changes in precipitation frequency, intensity, and timing at sites in the AmeriFlux network. Reconstruct wet extremes of precipitation from previously collected tree-ring...
The University of Oklahoma, operating through its Office of Research Administration, was awarded a $155,329 Project Grant from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) to conduct collaborative research on the atmospheric factors that drive extreme precipitation and flash flooding events in the contiguous United States. The 3-year project aims to develop a comprehensive database of extreme rainfall events, use machine learning techniques to identify the key...
This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation Division of Atmospheric and Geospace Sciences provides $678,911 to the University of Oklahoma under the Geosciences federal grant program (CFDA 47.050) to analyze data collected during the 2019 and 2022 Targeted Observation by Radars and UAS of Supercells field campaigns. The University will apply advanced modeling techniques to observational data on supercell thunderstorms to improve understanding of why some develop tornadoes...
This National Science Foundation (NSF) Project Grant under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) will deliver a transformative platform to enhance the resilience of rural electric power utilities against climate change and extreme weather events. The $250,000 award to Iowa State University of Science and Technology, spanning October 2024 to September 2027, will develop digital infrastructure to help utilities address challenges in maintaining electric power operations and service during...
This National Science Foundation (NSF) Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) Project Grant award of $149,781 to the University of Missouri System (Missouri S&T) will support a collaborative research study on the influence of terrain on tornado intensity and behavior. The research team will conduct post-storm aerial and ground surveys of tornado damage to structures and trees from a significant March 2025 tornado outbreak in Missouri and Arkansas. The collected data will be analyzed alongside...
