This contract is part of...
- This federal contract award, with the identification number NNX17AH53G, was granted by the Shared Services Center, a civilian federal agency, to the University of California San Diego's Scripps Institution of Oceanography. The $855,366.00 grant funds research to evaluate sub-100-km scale variability in sea surface height using altimetry, acoustic Doppler current profiler (ADCP) data, and numerical models. The research will focus on several regions, including the California Current, the area...
- This federal contract award was made by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Shared Services Center to the University of California San Diego's Scripps Institution of Oceanography Division, which is conducting research to refine, validate and maintain global algorithms for the existing standard data product of particulate organic carbon (POC) concentration in the surface ocean. The overarching goal is to ensure a continuous multi-year and multi-satellite POC record to support...
- The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) awarded a $646,166.89 grant to the University of California San Diego Scripps Institution of Oceanography to develop science-quality Level 2 and Level 3 Absorbed Photosynthetically Active Radiation (APAR) products from Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) and Visible Infrared Imaging Radiometer Suite (VIIRS) satellite data. The APAR products will help improve understanding of biogeochemical cycles and address climate...
- This federal contract award, with ID 80NSSC24K1426, is a grant for research issued by the Shared Services Center (an alternate name for a civilian federal agency) to the University of California San Diego (UCSD)'s Scripps Institution of Oceanography. The $233,154.00 grant, which has no set-aside designation, is for the maintenance of MODIS algorithms used to estimate particulate organic carbon concentration in the surface ocean for the Aqua and Terra satellite missions. This work supports the...
- This is a grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to The Research Foundation for the State University of New York (RF-SUNY) at the University at Albany. The grant, valued at $97,067.93, is to develop a suite of algorithms for generating operational cloud products from the Earth Polychromatic Imaging Camera (EPIC) instrument on the Deep Space Climate Observatory (DSCOVR) satellite. The work will involve using multichannel observations for cloud masking, cloud...
- This federal contract award was granted by a civilian government agency, the Shared Services Center, to the University of California San Diego (UCSD) and its Scripps Institution of Oceanography. The $371,915 grant will fund the development of a new data set specifying how solar spectral ultraviolet irradiance varies over a range of magnetic activity, from recent solar cycle maxima to the historical Maunder Minimum. This research project, with an ultimate completion date of August 26, 2024,...
This federal contract award to the University of California San Diego (UCSD) Scripps Institution of Oceanography, a division of UCSD, is for the development of a science-quality standard ocean surface photosynthetically available radiation (PAR) product from the DSCOVR EPIC satellite data. The $405,726 grant will fund the modification of the current NASA algorithm to EPIC data, quantification of theoretical performance, assignment of uncertainties, creation of a full EPIC PAR processing line, generation of a multi-year EPIC PAR time series, and evaluation against in-situ measurements and other satellite estimates. This project responds directly to the NASA NNH18ZDA001NA solicitation for new product development. The resulting EPIC PAR product will provide a consistent, long-term dataset to support research on biogeochemical cycles, climate change, and marine ecosystem dynamics. The contract does not have a set-aside designation, reflecting Scripps' status as a large educational institution. As the parent organization, the State of California Controller's Office has also received various federal contract and grant awards, demonstrating its involvement in federally funded projects.
