The National Academy of Sciences received a $250,000 Project Grant from the National Science Foundation's Division of Atmospheric and Geospace Sciences under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) for the period July 1, 2026 through June 30, 2029. This award provides core support for the Board on Atmospheric Sciences and Climate (BASC), which delivers objective, independent scientific guidance on atmospheric sciences research priorities and investments. BASC engages volunteer members—including leading scientists and practitioners from academic institutions, industry, national laboratories, and nongovernmental organizations—to identify critical research frontiers, map priorities for future atmospheric science research, and strengthen connections between atmospheric science and societal needs. Under this funding, BASC will advance convergence research that connects fundamental atmospheric science to practical applications addressing escalating natural hazards including wildfires, floods, tornadoes, drought, and extreme weather events. The grant supports BASC's role in identifying needed investments in data, observations, and research infrastructure while integrating advances in artificial intelligence and data science into atmospheric science research and decision-making. Through this award, BASC will provide federal agencies and the atmospheric sciences community with independent, evidence-based guidance to inform strategic research investments and improve public safety, economic resilience, and infrastructure protection.Federal Project Grant Award Summary
