This is a $429,931 research grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Shared Services Center to the University of California, Irvine (UC Irvine), a major public research university located in Irvine, California. The grant is for a two-year research project focused on developing a methodology to improve the accuracy and resolution of satellite-based precipitation retrieval estimates. The research aims to incorporate spatial patterns and covariation of satellite brightness temperatures to constrain the precipitation retrieval at the pixel level and quantify the uncertainty and spatial correlation of the retrieval errors. This is expected to enhance the ability to capture precipitation extremes for hydrologic and hazard applications. The grant does not have a set-aside designation, and UC Irvine is the prime awardee. As a public research university, UC Irvine has extensive experience conducting federally funded research and development work for agencies like the Department of Defense and Department of Energy.
