NOAA’s Climate Program Office (CPO), a part of NOAA’s Office of Oceanic and Atmospheric Research (OAR), has awarded $27.7 million for 87 new projects. The projects, ranging from advancing the understanding of Arctic sea ice variability to building resilience to extreme events, will be conducted by universities and other research institutions, alongside other federal agencies
NOAA’s Atmospheric Chemistry, Carbon Cycle, and Climate (AC4) Program is funding thirteen new projects including $1.7 million initially and $5 million over three years following a highly competitive funding competition. Aerosols and aerosol formation have a significant influence on both climate and air quality. There are, however, a number of uncertainties in fully understanding and

An EOS project update on the MAPP S2S Prediction Task Force has been published. A task force of researchers set out to bridge the gap between the 2-week weather forecast and long-term climate predictions; their findings could help in forecasting the likelihood of extreme events.

NOAA’s Climate Variability and Predictability (CVP) program is announcing 14 new three-year projects in FY17 that aim to improve understanding of processes that affect the propagation of intraseasonal oscillations—specifically the Madden-Julian Oscillation (MJO)—in the Maritime Continent and broader regions. The competitively selected programs total $7.4 million, including $4.8 in grants and $2.6 in other awards.
Regional and Global Environments Experiment (FIREX) In FY17 the AC4 program funded an additional 10 new projects consisting of 14 individual grants totaling $5.0 million to universities and non-Federal research laboratories in support of the Fire Influence on Regional and Global Environments Experiment (FIREX) led by NOAA’s Chemical Science Division. FIREX will study emissions and
