- This is a $339,644.46 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of California San Diego (UCSD) Scripps Institution of Oceanography. The grant supports a 3-year research project to measure the seismic moment accumulation rate and crustal strain rate along the San Andreas Fault System using a combination of Interferometric Synthetic Aperture Radar (InSAR) and Global Positioning System (GPS) data. The project aims to improve processing methods for...
- The University of California San Diego's Scripps Institution of Oceanography received a $665,939 grant award from NASA on March 9, 2023, for research titled "Strain Rate and Moment Rate in Western North America from InSAR and GNSS." The project, led by David Sandwell at UCSD in collaboration with researchers at the University of Texas at Austin, University of Hawaii, and CICESE in Mexico, addresses two critical surface deformation science questions from NASA's 2016 Earth Science...
- The University of California San Diego's Scripps Institution of Oceanography was awarded a $247,370.76 research grant on January 21, 2022, to analyze space geodetic observations along the Southern San Andreas Fault in California. The research will investigate the spatio-temporal evolution of shallow creep that has occurred since 2015, including a slow slip event triggered by the 2017 M8.2 Chiapas, Mexico earthquake. The work is scheduled for completion by January 20, 2025, and will be...
- This federal contract award, with ID NNX17AD99G, was granted by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of California San Diego (UCSD) Scripps Institution of Oceanography. The $699,991.65 grant funds research to improve understanding of the crustal deformation and earthquake cycle using Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) data and complementary Earth observation datasets. The research aims to enhance estimates of earthquake and tsunami hazards,...
- This is a $150,000.00 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of California San Diego (UCSD) Scripps Institution of Oceanography to investigate post-seismic creep and evolving hazard on adjacent faults in Haiti using InSAR data from recent earthquakes. The grant does not have a set-aside designation, reflecting Scripps' status as a large educational institution. Scripps is a division of UCSD and a renowned center for ocean and earth science...
- This is a $350,683 federal grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of California San Diego (UCSD), specifically its Scripps Institution of Oceanography division. The grant is for a project titled "Multimodal Observations of Climate-Forced Surface Deformation and Change Using NISAR and ICESat-2", which aligns with NASA's focus on Earth science research and climate monitoring. The grant does not have a set-aside designation. UCSD, a...
- This is a research grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of California San Diego (UCSD) Scripps Institution of Oceanography. The $352,684.99 grant is for the recipient to contribute to the development of the NASA-ISRO Synthetic Aperture Radar (NISAR) mission through supporting the Science Definition Team (SDT). The work will focus on using Interferometric Synthetic Aperture Radar (InSAR) techniques to monitor changes in permafrost and...
- This is a $420,696.71 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of California, Berkeley (UC Berkeley) to conduct research on improving fault slip estimates for large magnitude earthquakes. The goal is to better understand the natural hazards associated with earthquakes in order to enhance mitigation and preparation efforts. The research will focus on using a range of geodetic data to produce accurate estimates of fault slip across the entire...
- This is a $564,298 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of California, San Diego (UCSD) Scripps Institution of Oceanography. The grant is for research on applying machine learning approaches to derive Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) radio occultation observation errors within atmospheric rivers, with the goal of optimizing their use in data assimilation. The project has a period of performance through July 18, 2026. UCSD is a...
- This is a $926,176 grant award to the University of California San Diego (UCSD) Scripps Institution of Oceanography by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to conduct research on capturing dynamic changes in the marine atmospheric boundary layer in atmospheric rivers using GNSS radio occultation. The award has a period of performance from March 2025 to March 2028. UCSD is a renowned public research university and a leader in ocean and earth science research. This grant...
This is a $468,288.56 grant awarded by NASA to the University of California San Diego (UCSD) Scripps Institution of Oceanography to measure tectonic crustal strain rates along the San Andreas Fault system using a combination of InSAR and GNSS data. The goal is to accurately forecast large-scale geological hazards in a socially relevant timeframe by achieving an average velocity accuracy of 0.5 mm/yr over 10 km. This will require applying several corrections to the InSAR data, including solid earth/ocean loading tide, ionosphere delay, and resolving integer phase ambiguities. The grant does not have a set-aside designation. Scripps Institution of Oceanography, a renowned ocean and earth science research center, has a long history of supporting federal agencies like NASA, NOAA, and the Department of Defense through both grants and contracts.
