USRA is providing these services as part of its extensive experience supporting NASA's science missions and...

This federal contract award, with ID NNX17AD69A, is a Cooperative Agreement between the Universities Space Research Association (USRA) and the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to support the "ABOVE" airborne research campaign. The goal of this $165,053.33 contract is to improve the understanding of the Arctic Boreal Region and its role in the global carbon cycle. USRA will leverage the GEOS-5 modeling framework to integrate airborne observations from the 2017 campaign and improve the representation of permafrost carbon dynamics in the model. The contract will also support mission planning by providing near real-time forecasts and analyses to guide the deployment of optical sensors. This contract is not designated as a set-aside and represents part of NASA's broader efforts to quantify and document changes to the carbon cycle in high-latitude regions.
