Project Grant N629091812116

This Cooperative Agreement award from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) under the Climate and Atmospheric Research program (CFDA 11.431) provides $154,872 to the University of California, Santa Cruz to investigate the historical variability and future changes in the North Pacific Current (NPC) and its downstream impacts on the Gulf of Alaska and California Current Large Marine Ecosystems. The key objectives are to: (1) examine the historical connectivity between these...

This $326,001 Cooperative Agreement awarded by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) under the Climate and Atmospheric Research grant program (CFDA 11.431) is funding research to investigate the historical variability and future changes in the North Pacific Current (NPC) and its impacts on the Gulf of Alaska (GOALME) and California Current Large Marine Ecosystems (CCLME). The key elements of the work plan are to: 1) examine the historical connectivity between the coastal...

This $10,000,000 Cooperative Agreement award from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) under the Integrated Ocean Observing System (IOOS) Federal Grant Program (CFDA 11.012) supports the National Association of Navel and Oceanic Observing Systems (NANOOS) in increasing coastal resilience and enhancing equitable service delivery in the Pacific Northwest. The key objectives include: (1) investing in better detection of marine multi-stressors, enhanced coastal hazards...

This Project Grant from the National Science Foundation Division of Ocean Sciences, under the Geosciences federal grant program (CFDA 47.050), provides $197,506 to support collaborative research on rapid pilot observations of enhanced near-bottom equatorial turbulence in the deep Pacific Ocean. The University of California San Diego Scripps Institution of Oceanography, as awardee, will leverage an existing mooring array at 140°W to add instrumentation to moorings planned for 0.5°N and 3°N...

This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) provides $1,354,056 to the University of California San Diego Scripps Institution of Oceanography to jointly implement a new measurement technique called distributed acoustic sensing. This technique will generate high-resolution (10 m in space, minutes in time) images of ocean temperature and current velocity fields above a 34-km cable laid on the seafloor off the Azores islands. The goal is to...

The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) has awarded a $1,217,348 Cooperative Agreement under the Coastal Zone Management Administration Awards (CFDA 11.419) program to the Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands (CNMI) Division of Coastal Resources Management (DCRM). This funding will support the ongoing administration of CNMI's federally-approved coastal management program over a period from October 1, 2024 to March 31, 2027. Key products and services to be delivered...

The University of California San Diego's Scripps Institution of Oceanography was awarded a $749,367 Cooperative Agreement from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) under the Climate and Atmospheric Research program (CFDA 11.431). The project aims to improve understanding of the processes driving oxygen (O2) variability and change in the Northeastern Pacific, which is critical for enhancing ecosystem habitat predictions in Large Marine Ecosystems like the California...

This Cooperative Agreement award from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) under the Pacific Fisheries Data Program (CFDA 11.437) will gather data on commercial and recreational fishing in the Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands (CNMI). The $100,000 award to the CNMI Department of Lands and Natural Resources will fund surveys to collect information on the quantity, species, length, and weight of fish caught, as well as the locations, dates, and times of the...

This three-year, $482,834 project grant from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) will support analysis of Lagrangian observations from vertically profiling floats to investigate levels of internal waves and their role in transforming water properties through vertical mixing along the Pacific-to-Indian Ocean throughflow pathway. Specifically, the award recipient, the University of Washington Office of Sponsored Programs, will utilize existing and new float...

This three-year, $406,381 project grant from the National Science Foundation Division of Ocean Sciences, under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050), will fund research examining submesoscale frontal dynamics and exchange processes in San Luis Obispo Bay, California. A team of four researchers from different institutions will conduct high-resolution measurements of turbulent mixing using ship surveys and moorings to collect hydrographic, velocity, and microstructure profile data. They will...
