Office of Science Selections from Funding Opportunity Announcements  as of the week of September 18, 2024

Observing Marine Aerosols and Clouds 

$3M for One Award  

Funding for a pilot project to demonstrate the feasibility of deploying autonomous aerosol and cloud instrumentation on a commercial ship to address science goals of improving process level understanding of marine aerosol-cloud interactions and reducing uncertainty in regional and global models.

Long-Pulse International Stellarator Facilities  

$3.6M for Three Awards

The funded projects will use diagnostics on the Wendelstein 7-X stellarator in Greifswald, Germany to study ion-heat, particle, momentum, and impurity transport in a wide range of scenarios; measure core turbulence to study turbulence reduction and divertor detachment; and study neoclassical and turbulent transport and the equilibrium radial electric field. This information will be used to validate theoretical models and predictive computer codes for eventual design of a stellarator fusion pilot plant.
