The contract is a grant for research and does not have a...
- This is a $962,330.65 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to Oregon State University (OSU) for research related to the circulation and exchanges between continental shelves and the adjacent deep ocean off the coast of South Africa. The research aims to quantify the mean and eddy transports of mass, heat, salt, and other properties between the shelves and deep ocean boundary currents. The work will utilize satellite altimeter data, in-situ measurements, and...
- This federal contract award, with ID 80NSSC19K1373, was granted by the Shared Services Center of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to Oregon State University (OSU), a public land-grant research university. The $134,537.55 grant is for research to improve understanding of latitudinal circulation, El Niño-Southern Oscillation events, and maritime climatological atmospheric circulation patterns through analysis of wind field data. The contract does not have a set-aside...
- This is a $241,102 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to Oregon State University (OSU) for continued analysis of data from the 2012 Azores-AMT campaign and upcoming SABOR and NAAMES missions. The research will focus on comparing HSRL vertical profiles of particulate scattering coefficients with ship-based data, as well as analyzing measurements from the Gulf of Maine, Sargasso Sea, and Mid-Atlantic Bight shelf regions. The grant also provides minimal...
- This is a $107,276 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to Oregon State University (OSU) for research on ocean tides. The grant is a continuation of a long-standing collaboration between OSU researcher Gary Egbert and NASA scientist Richard Ray, focused on studying tidal energetics and internal tides using satellite altimeter data. The award has an ultimate completion date of August 31, 2023. OSU is a public land-grant research university with expertise...
- This is a $540,000.00 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to Oregon State University (OSU) to improve the data products from the ICESat-2 satellite mission, which measures ocean particulates. The award has an ultimate completion date of April 25, 2027. OSU, a public land-grant university, has extensive expertise in oceanographic research and environmental monitoring, and frequently partners with federal agencies like NASA, NOAA, and the Department of the...
- This is a $531,030 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to Oregon State University (OSU) to characterize the physical processes underlying the high fertility and high volume transport of outflows from the Patagonian shelf region in the South Atlantic. The research aims to better understand the large chlorophyll-a blooms in this area and their relationship to the Antarctic Circumpolar Current and bottom topography. The grant supports satellite data analysis...
This is a $681,124.00 research grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to Oregon State University (OSU) to conduct research on the use of QuikSCAT scatterometer wind measurements and coupled ocean-atmosphere modeling to understand air-sea coupling and coastal ocean circulation. The research aims to evaluate the sensitivity of wind-sea surface temperature coupling in a regional model of the California Current System, analyze the physics of this coupling, and assess the requirements and opportunities for a next-generation scatterometer. The grant does not have a set-aside designation. OSU, a public land-grant university, is the prime contractor for this award, and there are no major subcontractors mentioned. The research relates to understanding coastal ocean dynamics, which is important for modeling climate change impacts and supporting productive coastal ecosystems.
