- This federal contract award, NNX15AI77G, was issued by NASA to the Regents of the University of Idaho, doing business as the University of Idaho. The $287,245.57 grant will fund research to study wave activity, surface texture, and roughness on Titan's lakes and seas using data from the Cassini Visual and Infrared Mapping Spectrometer (VIMS) instrument. The goal is to understand momentum transfer at the sea/air interface to inform meteorological and climatological models of Titan. This...
- The University of Idaho received a $520,281 research grant awarded on January 1, 2022, with completion targeted for December 31, 2026, from a civilian federal agency's Shared Services Center. The award supports scientific research to constrain the physical and chemical properties of Titan's surface layer by analyzing surface reflectance phase function data obtained from the Cassini/VIMS (Visible and Infrared Mapping Spectrometer) instrument. Rather than relying on previous assumptions of...
- This federal contract award, valued at $242,783.00, was granted by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the Regents of the University of Idaho (University of Idaho) to conduct research on the internal structures of planets. The contract is a grant for research and does not have a set-aside designation. The University of Idaho is a public land-grant research university with extensive experience in federal contracting and grant awards. The university has demonstrated...
- This is a $995,194 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the Regents of the University of Idaho, a prominent public land-grant research university, to execute a balanced science program. The contract is focused on conducting scientific research in areas such as the Moon, Mars, and beyond, as well as advancing discovery in emerging fields through cross-disciplinary opportunities. The university will also participate as a key partner in NASA's exploration...
- This $132,086.00 grant was awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the Regents of the University of Idaho, doing business as the University of Idaho, for a research project titled "THE ROLE OF SMALL-SCALE TARGET HETEROGENEITIES IN THE FORMATION AND MORPHOLOGY OF SMALL CRATERS". The grant has a period of performance through May 31, 2025 and is not associated with a set-aside program. The University of Idaho is a top-ranked public university in Idaho...
- This federal contract award under NASA Grant NNX15AM23G is for the University of Idaho to develop and deliver advanced data products from the Cassini mission's Visible and Infrared Mapping Spectrometer (VIMS), Imaging Science Subsystem (ISS), and Radar instruments focused on Saturn's moon Titan. The $241,641.01 award is intended to provide these science-ready data products to the Planetary Data System (PDS) for use by new and casual Titan researchers. The award is not set aside. The University...
- This is a federal grant award to the Regents of the University of Idaho, doing business as the University of Idaho, for research on photosynthesis and the efficiency by which plants use solar energy to fix atmospheric carbon dioxide. The $89,940 grant was awarded on September 1, 2019 by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Shared Services Center, a civilian agency, with a final completion date of August 31, 2021. The award does not have a set-aside designation. The University...
- This is a grant award from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the Regents of the University of Idaho, doing business as the University of Idaho, with a ceiling value of $441,151. The award is for research focused on animal species of high management interest, utilizing publicly available avian and mammal location databases. The University of Idaho will serve as the prime contractor on this award, which does not have a set-aside designation. The award has a period of...
- The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) has awarded a grant worth $136,590.00 to the Regents of the University of Idaho (University of Idaho) to conduct research using Cassini/VIMS near-infrared spectral mapping observations of Jupiter and Saturn. The research aims to provide solar system analogs for extrasolar giant planets and cloudy brown dwarfs by analyzing the night sides of Jupiter and Saturn to generate disk-integrated light curves and attribute variations to...
- This federal contract award, valued at $750,000.00, was issued by the Shared Services Center (part of NASA) to the Regents of the University of Idaho, doing business as the University of Idaho, a public university in Idaho. The contract is a cooperative agreement that will engage the public through citizen science activities at the McCall Outdoor Science School and the Winter Wildland Alliance Snowschool, introducing K-12 students to snow science and winter ecology. The contract has an...
This federal contract award, valued at $337,474.84, was issued by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the Regents of the University of Idaho, doing business as the University of Idaho. The contract is a grant for research to analyze observations from the Cassini/VIMS instrument of transient broad specular reflections in Titan's north polar lake district using radiative transfer modeling. The purpose is to map these "wet sidewalk" effects and test hypotheses for their origin, specifically whether their spectra match wet surfaces or atmospheric fog. The University of Idaho will utilize its 3D Monte-Carlo radiative transfer model, SRTC++, which is well-suited for this task. This award is not associated with a set-aside program. The University of Idaho has a history of receiving federal contract awards and grants from agencies like NASA, the Department of Defense, and the Environmental Protection Agency to support research, technical services, and educational programs across aerospace, engineering, environmental studies, and natural resource management.
