NRL Tropical Air-Ocean-Wave-Land-Hydrology Interaction Research and Modeling

Due: May 1, 2025

$108,245

Description

Multidisciplinary research is being conducted to understand the atmospheric large-scale waves, monsoon, atmospheric river, tropical cyclone, diurnal cycle, cloud, and precipitation processes to improve weather and seasonal prediction capabilities. The focus is on the coupled air-ocean, air-wave, air-land-hydrology forcing and feedback mechanisms. Opportunities exist to study these multiscale nonlinear interactions using the NRL regional coupled model and in-situ/remotely sensed observations, through the diagnosis and development...

Conducted by the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine's Fellowships Office since 1954, these programs offer a comprehensive research experience through a rigorous selection process. The programs aim to: 1) Offer promising postdoctoral and senior scientists/engineers the chance to pursue self-directed research aligned with sponsoring laboratories' goals, 2) Enhance comprehensive research efforts of participating laboratories, 3) Provide recent doctoral graduates a platform for focused research collaboration with permanent laboratory staff, and 4) Foster professional growth by providing opportunities to gain skills, experience, and connections with leading scientists, ultimately enhancing career prospects in academia, industry, or government research roles. The programs provide mentorship, access to state-of-the-art facilities, and opportunities to influence government policy.
