This federal contract award, valued at $651,845.00, was granted by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of Alaska Fairbanks (UAF) to conduct research on the impact of inner magnetospheric waves on diffuse electron aurora and ionospheric conductance. The goal is to create detailed global maps of diffuse aurora and ionospheric conductance derived from wave scattering data, in order to better understand the coupling between the Earth's magnetosphere, ionosphere, and atmosphere. The project will utilize statistical modeling and a kinetic electron transport code to quantify the individual and combined effects of various wave modes on these phenomena. UAF, as the prime contractor, has significant expertise in Arctic and space physics research, and will leverage its specialized facilities and equipment to support this NASA-funded initiative. The contract does not have a set-aside designation, reflecting UAF's status as a public research university.
