- This is a $533,677 grant awarded by a civilian federal agency, the Shared Services Center, to Morgan State University, a historically Black university in Baltimore, Maryland. The grant is for long-term mapping of satellite-based ozone production rates using OMI, OMPS, and TROPOMI HCHO and NO2 observations via empirical and machine learning methods, with insights from NASA's air quality campaign. The grant does not have a set-aside designation, indicating Morgan State University competed...
- This federal contract award from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) was granted to Morgan State University, a historically Black university, to support contributions to the Precipitation Measurement Missions (PMM) Science Team. The $283,603.23 grant funds the development of (1) global modeling and assimilation methodologies to utilize all-sky Global Microwave Imager (GMI) radiance data in the Goddard Earth Observing System (GEOS-5) 4D-Ensemble Variational (4D-EnVar)...
This is a grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Shared Services Center to Morgan State University, a historically Black university located in Baltimore, Maryland. The $114,122.00 grant is for a research project focused on improving the representation of clouds and their radiative effects in Atmospheric Global Climate Models (AGCMs). The goal is to create a new framework for evaluating clouds using satellite-based cloud and radiative flux observations, including applying the methods to NASA's GEOS-5 AGCM and the Coupled Model Intercomparison Project Phase 6 (CMIP6) model archive. The project aims to enhance understanding of cloud representation in AGCMs and provide new approaches for global climate modelers to implement in their own model evaluations. There is no set-aside designation for this grant, which has an end date of October 28, 2022.
