The Department of Energy's Office of Science awarded a $639,993.46 Project Grant to the New Mexico Institute of Mining and Technology (New Mexico Tech) under the Office of Science Financial Assistance Program (CFDA 81.049) to improve the physical realism of snow processes in the Energy Exascale Earth System Model (E3SM). The research project, with a period of performance from January 1, 2025 to December 31, 2025, aims to enhance the representation of snow processes in the E3SM climate model to improve its predictive capabilities. As a minority-serving, Hispanic-serving research institution, New Mexico Tech has extensive experience supporting federal scientific research and development across various agencies, including the DOE, NASA, NSF, and DOD. This grant award leverages New Mexico Tech's expertise in areas such as atmospheric sciences, earth sciences, and climate modeling to further the DOE's mission of advancing scientific understanding to support national energy, economic, and security priorities.
