- This Project Grant award in the amount of $424,952 from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) will support collaborative research to study the connections between tropical heating, planetary-scale stationary waves, and extratropical storm track activity. The study, to be conducted by two Ph.D. students at Stony Brook University, aims to demonstrate how tropical deep convection and variations in zonal mean temperature gradients influence the behavior of extratropical...
- This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) provides $470,539 over a 3-year period from Sep 1, 2024 to Aug 31, 2027 to The Pennsylvania State University to conduct collaborative research on extratropical storm track dynamics. The primary objectives are to: Demonstrate linkages between tropical deep convection, planetary-scale stationary wave activity, temperature gradients, and extratropical storm track activity. Identify the physical...
- This National Science Foundation (NSF) Geosciences program Project Grant award of $381,865 to Colorado State University aims to understand how the predictability of severe weather events, such as tornadoes, hail, and flooding, may change as the climate warms. The research will generate and analyze large datasets of numerical weather model forecasts to assess how the ability to predict severe storms evolves in recent (20th century) versus future (21st century) climate scenarios. This work could...
- This $707,741 project grant from the National Science Foundation Division of Atmospheric and Geospace Sciences Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) will fund research into dynamical mechanisms for midlatitude-arctic interactions and associated weather extremes in a warming climate. The University of California, Los Angeles will examine several interrelated dynamical mechanisms through three tasks from April 15, 2023 to March 31, 2026. The researchers will analyze linkages between stratospheric...
- This is a National Science Foundation (NSF) Project Grant award under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) totaling $1,010,185 with a period of performance from September 1, 2024 to August 31, 2029. The award was made to Cornell University to conduct research that applies extreme event attribution methodologies to quantify the influence of stratospheric variability, such as sudden stratospheric warmings, on the likelihood and severity of subseasonal extreme weather events like cold air...
- This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) will support research by Texas Tech University to investigate the predictability of severe weather events, such as tornadoes, hail, and flooding, under current and future climate conditions. The $380,904 award, effective from September 1, 2023 to August 31, 2026, will involve creating and analyzing large datasets of numerical weather model forecasts to understand how and why the predictability of...
- This federal Project Grant award for $1,309,743.00 was provided by the National Science Foundation's Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) to the University of Chicago. The award is for research focused on the "Dynamics of the Jet Stream Anomalies Across Scales", investigating the large-scale meanders in upper-tropospheric jet streams that influence extreme weather events such as heat waves, cold air outbreaks, and heavy precipitation. The research aims to build upon the Principal...
- The U.S. National Science Foundation awarded a $399,996 Project Grant to the Trustees of the Colorado School of Mines under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) to conduct collaborative research on identifying non-linearities in rainfall and river responses to consecutive Paleogene global warming events. This 3-year project (Sep 2025 - Aug 2028) aims to advance the fundamental understanding of how rainfall patterns and river systems respond to a changing climate by collecting new data on...
