该奖项代表少数民族研究规划补助金。 的 首席研究员将利用赠款期间准备一份 评估卫星保真度的竞争性建议 测量热量，动量和示踪剂在整个大气中的传输 对流层顶（在对流层和平流层之间）。 支撑 将允许主要研究者适应先前开发的 用于类似评估的建模代码 中层大气（上层平流层和中层大气）， 这是她博士研究的一部分 一项研究的结果 关于这一主题的项目可以提供宝贵的见解， 改进全球四维资料同化 流通模式

This award represents a Minority Research Planning Grant. The principal investigator will use the grant period to prepare a competitive proposal to assess the fidelity of satellite measurements of heat, momentum, and tracer transport across the tropopause (between the troposphere and stratosphere). The support will allow the principal investigator to adapt previously developed modeling codes which were used for a similar assessment of the middle atmosphere (upper stratosphere and mesosphere) which was done as part of her doctoral research. The results of a research project on this topic could provide valuable insights into how to improve the four dimensional data assimilation for global circulation models.
