The National Science Foundation's Division of Atmospheric and Geospace Sciences has awarded $621,179 to the Research Foundation of the City University of New York (RFCUNY) under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) for a five-year CAREER grant project effective July 1, 2026 through June 30, 2031. This Project Grant supports fundamental atmospheric science research focused on developing and testing a unified theoretical framework for understanding Hadley cell boundaries—planetary-scale tropical atmospheric circulations that govern monsoon patterns and subtropical desert formation. The research will advance predictive theory for cell-mean Rossby numbers and explain seasonal Hadley cell variability through targeted simulations and modeling, ultimately contributing to improved understanding of monsoon behavior and water and food security outcomes dependent on monsoon dynamics. Beyond research deliverables, the award includes an educational and workforce development component designed to prepare students for artificial intelligence applications in atmospheric science. RFCUNY will develop and deliver mentorship programs, create new academic coursework, and produce open-source teaching modules focused on critical literacy of generative artificial intelligence. These educational products will equip the next generation of atmospheric scientists with foundational knowledge spanning both classical atmospheric dynamics and contemporary AI-influenced methodologies applicable to climate and weather research.Federal Grant Award Summary
