The grant has a period of performance through April 9, 2025. The University of Washington is the prime recipient and does not have any major subcontractors identified. This award is not set aside for small businesses....
- This is a $308,078.48 grant for research awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Shared Services Center to the University of Washington (UW) on December 28, 2017. The contract is focused on improving the prediction of tropical weather systems by analyzing the complex interactions between convective cloud systems and environmental conditions over tropical oceans. UW is a public research university that has received numerous prime federal contracts and grants, serving...
- This is a federal grant award from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of Washington (UW) for a project titled "Merging GRACE and GRACE-FO Ocean Bottom Pressure Anomalies Using Available Pressure Records and the Atmosphere OBP Relationships from Existing GRACE Data." The goal of this $335,602.78 award is to create proxy representations of ocean bottom pressure (OBP) observations from the GRACE and GRACE-FO gravity missions to facilitate merging...
- This federal contract award, valued at $251,603.00, was made by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Shared Services Center to the University of Washington (UW) to implement a spectrally resolved wind-wave component into the NASA GEOS-5 Earth system model. The goal is to improve the modeling of air-sea exchange processes, marine aerosol production, and the impacts on the marine boundary layer. This is not a set-aside contract. UW, a leading research university, has a...
- This is a federal grant award from the Shared Services Center of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of Washington (UW) for research on the interactions between the atmosphere, clouds, and sea ice in the Beaufort and Chukchi Seasonal Ice Zone (BCSIZ). The research aims to advance the understanding of how synoptic weather conditions affect cloud properties and the energy exchange between the atmosphere and sea ice. The award has a ceiling value of...
- This federal contract award, identified as 80NSSC21K1495, was granted by the Shared Services Center, a civilian agency, to the University of Washington (UW) to support a project focused on tropical cyclones and associated precipitation in the NASA Goddard Earth Observing System. The award, which has a ceiling value of $126,338.00, is a grant for research with a completion date of July 8, 2026. The University of Washington is a prominent research institution that has secured numerous federal...
This is a grant award from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Shared Services Center to the University of Washington (UW) to improve the use of satellite ocean vector wind (OVW) observations in weather and climate applications. The project aims to unify, advance, and generalize UW's planetary boundary layer (PBL) model to provide a single model for all applications, including tropical cyclone research. The effort will enhance the value of OVW data for weather and climate studies and develop a methodology to better estimate momentum entrainment at the top of the marine atmospheric boundary layer, which has implications for climate model biases. The grant has a ceiling value of $536,827.27 and a period of performance through December 18, 2023. There is no set-aside designation for this award.
