Advancing scientific understanding of climate, improving society’s ability to plan and respond
Dr. Paul Miller, a member of the MAPP Drought Task Force, was awarded the Faculty Early Career Development Program (CAREER) award for his research on understanding the mechanisms leading to early warning of meteorological and hydrological drought in the U.S. Caribbean. He is a co-investigator on a project led by Dr. Thomas Mote from the …

The CVP and MAPP Programs hosted an informational webinar on their FY24 Competitions in support of NOAA’s Climate Ecosystems Fisheries Initiative (CEFI). The webinar included a discussion of the ongoing research and priority areas from the perspective of NOAA Research scientists, along with a Q&A Section.
This year’s notice of funding opportunity consists of six competitions to advance understanding of Earth’s climate system through interdisciplinary, integrated scientific research.
CPO is seeking applications for six individual competitions in FY24. Several of these competitions are relevant to the suite of urgent climate-driven societal challenges and risks faced by our Nation that CPO aims to address. Approximately $9 million will be available for approximately 90 new awards pending budget appropriations.
Two months after MAPP’s Marine Ecosystem Task Force published a comment in Nature calling for clearer definitions of marine heatwaves, a newly published article in Frontiers assesses marine heat waves in the Mediterranean Sea and questions the usefulness of fixed or moving baselines.
With 10 of the largest California wildfires occurring in the last 20 years—five of which occurred in 2020 alone—scientists are asking if man-made climate change is to blame.
