- This federal contract award, valued at $103,278.86, was granted by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of Montana to conduct research on the impacts of climate change on carbon release from forest disturbances in the western United States. The research project, which runs from September 1, 2015 to August 31, 2018, aims to investigate the resistance and resilience of forests to changes in disturbance regimes, such as fire, drought, and insects, and how these...
- This is a $292,161 grant awarded by the Shared Services Center of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of Montana for a research project titled "IMPROVING JOINT PREDICTIONS OF FOREST FLUXES AND FLAMMABILITY USING SATELLITE MICROWAVE DATA". The grant, which has a period of performance through May 31, 2027, is focused on improving the joint prediction of forest fluxes and flammability using satellite microwave data. The University of Montana, a...
- This federal contract award, with a value of $150,000.00, was granted by the Shared Services Center to the University of Montana, a public research university located in Missoula, Montana. The contract is a Grant for Research and does not have a set-aside designation. The contract is focused on research related to the impacts of fire and other climate-driven disturbances on forests, and the management of forests to ensure their continued existence under changing climate conditions. This research...
- This is a Training Grant awarded to the University of Washington by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Shared Services Center on September 1, 2018 with a potential value of $135,000.00. The purpose of the grant is to study tree mortality patterns using a combination of field, airborne, and space-borne data to measure individual tree vigor and aboveground carbon storage in a forested ecoregion adapted to frequent fire, with a focus on the Sierra Nevada region of...
- The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) awarded a $210,300.80 grant to the University of Montana to investigate the response of seasonal phenology, carbon dioxide (CO2) exchange, and atmospheric CO2 to spring warming, soil thaw, and liquid water availability in North America. The research project, which does not have a set-aside designation, will leverage multi-scale carbon and water cycle observations, as well as land and atmosphere models, to elucidate the impacts of...
- This federal contract award from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) was granted to Montana State University to develop a remote-sensing based decision support system (DSS) to enhance the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) geospatial portal. The goal is to produce ecological vital signs in support of the Group on Earth Observations Biodiversity Observation Network (GEO BON) and provide tools to enable decision-making on forest fragmentation and connectivity by...
- This $850,647.00 grant was awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to Montana State University to develop and implement a decision support system (DSS) for scenario planning, forecasting, policy development, and reporting related to Sustainable Development Goal 15 (SDG 15) - Life on Land. The project aims to assist Colombia, Ecuador, and Peru in meeting the Convention on Biodiversity 2020 targets by integrating Earth observation data and biological data to produce...
- This federal contract award, identified as 80NSSC23K0212, was issued by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of Montana (UMT) for the "EO14042 UNBOUND WORKSHOP AUGMENTATION: BROADENING THE USE OF NASA DATASETS BY THE SPECIES DISTRIBUTION MODELING COMMUNITY" project. The $11,487.44 grant-funded contract, with a completion date of July 10, 2024, does not have a set-aside designation. The University of Montana, through its Research and Sponsored...
- The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) awarded a $526,922.63 grant to the University of Montana to support the maintenance and enhancement of the MOD17 algorithm, which produces global datasets on daily gross primary production and annual net primary production from NASA's Terra and Aqua satellite platforms. The MOD17 products are the only standard global 1-kilometer datasets of these key carbon flux metrics, and are critical inputs for climate and vegetation growth models as...
- This federal contract award, valued at $478,214.00, was granted by the Shared Services Center to the University of Montana to provide continuity for the Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) MOD17 Land Gross Primary Production, Net Primary Production, and MOD16 Evapotranspiration datasets on the Terra and Aqua satellites. The contract is a grant for research, with a period of performance through September 30, 2025. The University of Montana, operating as Research and Sponsored...
This federal contract award was granted by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Shared Services Center to the University of Montana for a research project focused on modeling the likelihood of recruitment failure in semi-arid forests of the western United States. The $688,998.06 grant will support the integration of earth observation data, in-situ data, and a coupled ecohydrologic/plant hydraulics model to simulate indicators of seedling mortality, such as loss of hydraulic function and lethal surface temperatures. The project aims to assess the capacity of these forests to naturally regenerate under projected future climate variability, and to provide decision support tools to the U.S. Forest Service for more targeted and efficient reforestation planning. This work aligns with Sustainable Development Goals 15.1 and 15.2 related to forest management and conservation. The contract does not have a set-aside designation and runs through June 6, 2023.
