Do you do science related to the air-sea interactions? If so, we’d love to hear from you!
Funding agencies often rely on the science community to identify and prioritize leading-edge scientific questions and required observations. NASA and its partners ask the National Research Council (NRC) once every decade to look out 10 years into the future and prioritize research areas, observations, and national missions.
The OCB Ocean Atmosphere Interaction Committee (OAIC) is gathering input and ideas for a white paper focused on our community’s priorities for NASA related air-sea interaction research.
Please fill out the form to share with us your ideas.
Your input and collaboration is critical to this process -a cohesive community voice on research priorities and key observables will be much more likely to garner NASA support for missions, field campaigns, etc. to support air-sea research.
Email oaic@whoi.edu with questions or further ideas.
SOLAS warmly invites everyone to join us in Xiamen for an evening of reconnecting with old friends and meeting new ones. The gathering took place on Tuesday, 14 January 2025.
American Geophysical Union (AGU) Fall Meeting, December 2024, Washington DC
A037 – Aquatic Aerosols: From Microscale Processes to Impacts on Clouds and Climate
Conveners: Hosein Foroutan (Virginia Tech), Ernie R Lewis (Brookhaven National Laboratory)
Amanda A Frossard (University of Georgia), Meinrat O Andreae (Max Planck; UCSD), Raymond Leibensperger III (University of California San Diego)
The OCB Ocean-Atmosphere Interactions Committee has compiled relevant NASA ROSES 2024 proposal opportunities and deadlines for air-sea research – could be your next funded project! There is plenty of inspiration in the US SOLAS Science Plan!
OCB2024 took place on June 10-13, 2024 in Woods Hole, MA
