- This federal contract award, valued at $443,610.42, was granted by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of South Florida (USF) to support research on remote measurements of water properties. The purpose is to address challenges in sensor calibration required for accurate measurements of the water signal, which is a small portion of the total signal. The contract supports the "Synergistic Multi-Sensor Calibration for Global and Coastal Observations of...
- This is a $107,692.20 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Shared Services Center to Florida Atlantic University, a public university in Boca Raton, Florida. The grant is for research to improve the accuracy of remote sensing data used in the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration's (NOAA) forecasting model for harmful algal blooms (HABs) in Lake Erie. The research will utilize newly available autonomous radiometric data collected from a NASA Aerosol...
- This is a $409,727.04 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of South Florida (USF) in Tampa, Florida. The grant is for a research project titled "Improving Altimetry's Non-Tidal High-Frequency Ocean De-Aliasing Correction Through the Inclusion of GRACE Data." The project aims to develop new, high-resolution gravity time series from the Gravity Recovery and Climate Experiment (GRACE) satellite data to improve the accuracy of...
- This $75,257.39 federal grant award was issued by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Shared Services Center to the University of South Florida (USF) to implement and test preliminary atmospheric correction algorithms and process airborne hyperspectral data collected by the Geostationary Coastal and Air Pollution Events (GEO-CAPE) and Airborne Compact Atmospheric Mapper (ACAM) instruments. The award has a period of performance from February 12, 2018, to May 20, 2021. No...
- The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) awarded a $699,998.00 grant to the University of South Florida (USF) for research related to the Gravity Recovery and Climate Experiment (GRACE) mission and the GRACE Follow-On (GRACE-FO) mission. The grant, which does not have a set-aside designation, will fund research that provides insights into important aspects of ocean circulation using the long record of ocean bottom pressure data from these missions. USF, a metropolitan research...
This $1,268,398.30 federal grant was awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of South Florida (USF) to support a research project designed to meet the water management needs of the South Florida Water Management District (SFWMD) and the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE). The project aims to develop validated algorithms and data products to assess and monitor algae blooms in the Lower Okeechobee (LO) and downstream estuaries using satellite sensors, conduct field surveys to understand environmental factors, develop physical-biological models, examine historical data, and create a bloom probability matrix to improve water discharge decision-making. The grant does not have a set-aside designation. USF is the prime awardee and will leverage its expertise in marine science, engineering, and other relevant disciplines to deliver the research objectives.
