- This is a $1,082,792.78 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the California Institute of Technology (Caltech) to evaluate crop productivity using solar-induced chlorophyll fluorescence (SIF) measured from ground and space. The goal is to provide a framework for using SIF to estimate gross and net carbon fluxes in agricultural systems. The grant leverages recent developments in measuring chlorophyll fluorescence and carbon exchange at the leaf, canopy,...
- This is a $108,778 cooperative agreement awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) to study vegetation reflectance and solar-induced fluorescence (SIF) in northern boreal forests. The primary objectives are to (1) establish a framework linking ground-based and airborne measurements of SIF and vegetation reflectance to gross primary productivity (GPP), and (2) reduce uncertainties in satellite-based GPP estimates across...
- This is a $187,826.07 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the California Institute of Technology (Caltech) for research on the response of terrestrial carbon uptake to seasonal warming, soil thaw, and water availability across North America. The research aims to understand how changes in seasonal phenology, carbon dioxide (CO2) exchange, and atmospheric CO2 concentrations have evolved over the past decade, particularly in climate-sensitive semi-arid and...
- This is a $478,909.53 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the California Institute of Technology (Caltech) for research related to the Tropospheric Monitoring Instrument (TROPOMI) on the Sentinel-5P satellite. The grant is for a 5-year period from July 1, 2015 to June 30, 2021. The work will involve prototyping the TROPOMI retrieval algorithm, conducting initial data analysis, and performing operational data processing of the TROPOMI data. The research...
- The National Aeronautics and Space Administration awarded a $38,399.97 cooperative agreement to the University of Utah's Office of Sponsored Projects Division. The agreement supports research to improve understanding of the feedbacks associated with climate change in northern boreal forests. Specifically, the university will establish a quantitative framework linking surface measurements of solar induced fluorescence and vegetation reflectance to estimates of gross primary productivity at...
- This is a $544,306.45 cooperative agreement awarded by NASA's Shared Services Center to the University of Colorado to study the dramatic increase in the amplitude of the CO2 seasonal cycle observed in northern high latitudes since the 1960s. The project will develop a high-resolution regional inverse modeling system, CarbonTracker-ABOVE, that integrates satellite and in-situ trace gas measurements, as well as satellite-based land products, to quantify the contributions of various processes...
- This is a $679,366.21 grant for research awarded by the Shared Services Center, a civilian agency, to the California Institute of Technology (Caltech). The contract has no set-aside designation. The proposed work will focus on improving the data quality and scientific output of the Orbiting Carbon Observatory-2/3 (OCO-2/3) Solar-Induced Fluorescence (SIF) data products. This includes enhancing the understanding of the SIF data's dependence on sun-sensor geometry and using the growing OCO-2 SIF...
- The California Institute of Technology (Caltech) was awarded a $289,222 research grant by NASA's Shared Services Center on October 18, 2019, for the Carbon Monitoring System in Mountains (CMS-MOUNTAINS) project. This initiative leverages satellite-based solar-induced fluorescence technology to advance understanding of forest drought and mortality patterns across the western United States. The research will be conducted at Caltech's Pasadena, California campus, with completion scheduled for...
- This is a $269,444.70 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of Illinois to develop new satellite-based algorithms for measuring crop productivity using solar-induced chlorophyll fluorescence (SIF) data from the NASA Orbiting Carbon Observatory-2 (OCO-2) satellite. The goal is to enable more accurate and timely monitoring and forecasting of agricultural productivity to address rising food and biofuel demands, as well as climate change impacts....
- This is a $1,099,778.46 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of Arizona for a study focused on using satellite remote sensing to understand what controls the response of photosynthesis in Amazonian forests to seasonal and inter-annual variations in climate. The grant will enable the University to deploy a network of innovative ground-based sensors, including hyperspectral imaging systems and chlorophyll fluorescence spectrometers, to collect...
