A New Global Nonhydrostatic Model of the Deep Atmosphere from 0-500 km Altitude

Due: May 1, 2025

Description

This project focuses on the development and research applications of a new state-of-the-art global numerical model of the atmosphere extending from the ground to 500 km altitude, which can provide a foundation for future high-altitude operational numerical weather prediction (NWP). This research will be based around an emerging next-generation Navy dynamical core known as NEPTUNE (Navy Environmental Prediction System Utilizing a Nonhydrostatic Engine), which solves the deep-atmosphere nonhydrostatic fluid equations on the sphere...

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.
