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 $481,776 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to Oregon State University on June 20, 2018. The grant is for a research project to advance the understanding of global ocean phytoplankton through the use of satellite remote sensing data from the MODIS-Aqua and CALIOP sensors. The research aims to improve the parameterization of ocean color inversion algorithms to generate global fields of particulate backscatter and absorption coefficients, which will...
This federal contract award, identified as 80NSSC21K0414, was granted to Oregon State University (OSU) by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to conduct research using data from the MODIS-Aqua sensor and the CALIOP sensor to improve understanding of diel vertical migrations (DVM) in global marine animals. The $718,602.00 grant does not have a set-aside designation. OSU, a public land-grant research university, frequently partners with federal agencies like NASA to advance...
This $87,736.10 training grant was awarded by the Shared Services Center, a civilian agency, to Oregon State University (OSU) to conduct research related to quantifying the impact of calcifying and non-calcifying phytoplankton on regional iron and carbon cycles in the Patagonian Shelf and adjacent South Atlantic waters. The project aims to leverage remote sensing data and numerical modeling to understand the spatial and temporal patterns of these phytoplankton and their contributions to the...

This is a grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Shared Services Center to Oregon State University, a public research university in Corvallis, Oregon, to improve estimates of Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) Indicator 14.4.1 - the proportion of fish stocks within biologically sustainable levels. The $725,892.31 grant will fund research to synthesize global geospatial datasets, including remote sensing data, Automatic Identification System (AIS) vessel location data, and fishing effort data, to develop statistical and machine learning models to explain and predict patterns of legal and illegal fishing. The research aims to improve monitoring of fishing vessels and identify anomalous spatial behavior indicative of illegal, unreported, and unregulated (IUU) fishing, particularly in the Patagonia Shelf, off South Africa, and the South China Sea and Indonesia. This grant does not have a set-aside designation.
