- This 3-year, $517,928.12 federal grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to Arizona State University (ASU) aims to significantly improve the resolution and accuracy of estimates of total water mass budget variations over California. The project involves a collaboration between scientists from ASU, Bowling Green State University, and NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory. The key goals are to generate high-resolution, time-dependent 3D surface deformation maps by...
- This $76,474 federal grant was awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of South Carolina (USC) to support research and capacity building related to water resources management in developing countries. The grant, which does not have a set-aside designation, is focused on two main components: 1) assessing the risk of inadequate water quantity and quality in the Ganga-Brahmaputra river basin in India using satellite data and hydrological modeling, and 2)...
- This is a training grant award from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Shared Services Center to the University of Southern California (USC) Department of Contracts and Grants Division. The $135,000.00 contract is for the development of a low-cost, platform-independent software defined radar (SDRADAR) smart sensor payload that can act as a node in a non-centralized, task-oriented wireless network. The system is intended to be validated through measurement and imaging...
- This is a $897,219.00 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of California, Berkeley (UC Berkeley) for a research project titled "The Role of Sierra Nevada Mountains in Regulating Central Valley Groundwater Recharge". The grant is part of a larger research program focused on understanding the impact of the Sierra Nevada Mountains on groundwater recharge in California's Central Valley. UC Berkeley, as the prime contractor, will...
- This is a $1,029,004 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the Desert Research Institute (DRI), a research division of the Nevada System of Higher Education. The grant is part of NASA's "Operational Remote Sensing of Agricultural Water Use in Cooperation with Western State Water Resources" program and will support the development of an open-source platform called "Open-ET" to provide water management agencies and stakeholders with...
- The U.S. National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) awarded a $659,964.78 grant to the University of Colorado, a public research university, to partner with the SERVIR - Eastern and Southern Africa Hub for a project that will link in-situ data collection tools measuring local rainfall, temperature, groundwater use, and land properties with remote sensing data sets. The goal is to develop machine learning-supported interpolated data products for localized rainfall, temperature,...
- This federal contract award from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of California, Berkeley (UC Berkeley) is for a research project titled "Quantifying Ecosystem Reliance on Groundwater." The $150,000.00 grant aims to improve understanding of how climate change-driven droughts impact vegetation and the terrestrial carbon sink, with a focus on the role of groundwater in sustaining ecosystems. The research will leverage in-situ and NASA remote...
- This contract award to Georgia Tech Research Corporation, also known as the Office of Sponsored Programs, is a $446,552 grant for research from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Shared Services Center. The research aims to develop innovative approaches to detect shallow groundwater and irrigation using data from the Soil Moisture Active Passive (SMAP) satellite mission, in order to improve the accuracy of Earth system models in simulating water, energy, and carbon...
- This is a $554,875.00 federal grant award to the University of Maryland, College Park from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) and the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA). The purpose of the grant is to enhance and expand the G-REALM (Global Reservoir and Lake Monitoring) program, which provides near real-time water level data from satellite radar altimeters to stakeholders in the USDA Foreign Agricultural Service. The key objectives are to increase the number of lakes and...
- This contract was awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to The Leland Stanford Junior University, also known as Stanford University, to enhance decision-making for sustainable groundwater management in California's Central Valley. The $779,307 grant will leverage advanced data integration techniques, including interferometric synthetic aperture radar (InSAR) and airborne electromagnetic (AEM) data, to develop high-resolution groundwater models that can better...
The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) awarded a $135,000.00 grant to the University of Southern California (USC) for research on remote sensing of spatial and temporal extent of the water table and intervening soil moisture profiles. The objective is to develop a wireless network of small in-situ and unmanned aircraft systems (UAS)-based ground-penetrating radar (GPR) automated sensing nodes to map the altitude of the groundwater table and its spatiotemporal variability, particularly in water-scarce regions like the western United States. The grant aims to improve methods for large-scale, high-resolution mapping of the groundwater table beyond current limitations of airborne radar, electrical resistivity mapping, and manual GPR systems. There is no set-aside designation for this research grant, which has a completion date of June 30, 2022.
