Remote Sensing of Surface Fluxes of Sea Spray, Gases, and Heat for Air-Sea Interaction Studies

Due: May 1, 2025

$99,200

Description

Air-sea surface fluxes of momentum, heat, and mass serve as boundary conditions of weather, wave, and climate models. Accurate observations and parameterizations of surface fluxes are required for accurate weather forecasting and wave model predictions. Breaking of ocean waves with air entrainment greatly enhances the surface fluxes. Sea foam (whitecaps) on the ocean surface is the most direct expression of such breaking wave conditions. Whitecap fraction, W, quantifies the presence of sea foam and is widely used to parameterize...

Grantor Contact InformationMagdalena Dimitrova Anguelova, 202 404 6342Grantor Emailmagdalena.d.anguelova.civ@us.navy.milOther Grantor InformaitonThe NRC Research Associateship Programs (RAP) are prestigious postdoctoral and senior research awards designed to provide promising scientists and engineers with high-quality research opportunities at federal laboratories and affiliated institutions. 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.
