This federal Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation (NSF), under the Engineering program (CFDA 47.041), provides $447,000.00 to The Leland Stanford Junior University (Stanford University) from August 1, 2025 to July 31, 2028. The project focuses on measuring and characterizing the settling and transport behavior of actively buoyant particles, such as firebrands from wildfires, which can travel unexpectedly long distances due to changes in air density around the hot particles. The research aims to improve models for predicting how these types of actively buoyant particles behave in turbulent flows, which has applications in areas like marine organism positioning and other situations involving buoyancy manipulation. The project will provide research opportunities for undergraduate and graduate students to help develop the future scientific workforce.
