UW is a leading research university that has received numerous prime federal contract awards and subcontracts from agencies such as the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA), Defense...
- This is a federal grant award from the Shared Services Center of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of Washington (UW) for research on the interactions between the atmosphere, clouds, and sea ice in the Beaufort and Chukchi Seasonal Ice Zone (BCSIZ). The research aims to advance the understanding of how synoptic weather conditions affect cloud properties and the energy exchange between the atmosphere and sea ice. The award has a ceiling value of...
- The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Shared Services Center awarded a $453,210.17 grant for research to the University of Washington (UW). The purpose of the grant is to expand understanding of submesoscale ocean physics and dynamics, with a focus on analyzing historical ship thermosalinograph data, satellite sea surface temperature measurements, reanalysis winds, and geostrophic velocities. UW is a leading research university that has received numerous prime federal...
- This federal contract award is for a grant to the University of Washington (UW) for research on the role of giant cloud condensation nuclei (CCN) in influencing warm rain production from shallow liquid clouds. The award, valued at $200,884, is funded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) and has an ultimate completion date of April 16, 2026. The University of Washington is the prime contractor for this grant and has no set-aside designation. UW is a prominent research...
- This is a $989,657.00 grant award from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Shared Services Center to the University of Washington (UW) for research on using new combinations of remote sensing data to estimate surface density and ice layers. The goal is to provide estimations that may equal or surpass the accuracy of computationally expensive multi-layer snow models. This is not a set-aside award. UW, as a leading research university, has a history of prime federal contract...
This is a $562,161 federal grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Shared Services Center to the University of Washington (UW) to conduct research on the response of low clouds to changing atmospheric composition. The work aims to gain a better understanding of the spatial and temporal relationships between precipitation, microphysics, and cloud radiative properties, which are critical for improving climate model physics. The research will leverage data from satellites like CloudSat and CALIPSO to explore couplings between processes within the planetary boundary layer, such as cloud mesoscale organization and precipitation, and how these influence cloud system evolution. This grant does not have a set-aside designation, reflecting UW's status as a large educational institution that often serves as a prime contractor on federal research awards. As a prominent public research university, UW has a long history of securing both contract and grant funding from various civilian and defense agencies to support a wide range of research, education, and technical services.
