This is a federal grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University Corporation for Atmospheric Research (UCAR), a nonprofit consortium that manages the National Center for Atmospheric Research (NCAR). The grant, valued at $920,830.00, is for research to characterize the spatial and temporal scales of snowbands in Northeast U.S. winter storms, understand the underlying dynamical, thermodynamical, and microphysical processes, and apply this knowledge to improve remote sensing and modeling of snowfall. The research is being conducted at NCAR's facilities in Boulder, Colorado. This grant award is not associated with a set-aside designation. UCAR frequently collaborates with university partners and supports a range of atmospheric and Earth system science research for government agencies like NASA, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), and the Department of Energy (DOE) through both grant and contract mechanisms.
