- This federal contract award to the University of Alabama in Huntsville (UAH) is for a research project titled "Evolution of Lightning Energetics and the Relationship to Severe Weather." The $298,893 grant is funded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to investigate the Geostationary Lightning Mapper (GLM) instrument on the GOES-R satellite. The research aims to develop new algorithms to better utilize GLM data and relate lightning activity to storm dynamics...
- This federal contract award, valued at $270,209.92, was granted by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of Alabama in Huntsville (UAH) to conduct research on the detection and applications of continuing current in lightning using the Lightning Imaging Sensor (LIS) onboard the Tropical Rainfall Measuring Mission (TRMM) and the upcoming Geostationary Lightning Mapper (GLM) instrument on the GOES-R satellite. The research aims to leverage NASA's space-based...
- This federal contract award, valued at $187,376.00, was granted by the Shared Services Center, a civilian agency, to the University of Alabama in Huntsville (UAH) to support research and development related to analyzing severe convective storms using data from the next-generation GOES-R weather satellite. The contract will leverage the advanced capabilities of the GOES-R satellite's instruments, including the Advanced Baseline Imager (ABI) and Geostationary Lightning Mapper (GLM), to...
- This federal contract award, valued at $74,596.79, was granted by the Shared Services Center (an agency of NASA) to The University of Alabama in Huntsville (UAH), a public research university. The award is for a grant to expand upon the First GBM TGF Catalog, which provided data on 4,144 Terrestrial Gamma-ray Flashes (TGFs) and included lightning data from the World Wide Lightning Location Network (WWLLN). The Second GBM TGF Catalog will analyze an additional 5.7 years of data from the Gamma-ray...
- This federal contract award, valued at $402,026.00, was granted to The University of Alabama in Huntsville (UAH), a public research university registered as a non-profit educational institution and state-controlled institution of higher learning. The contract, which is not set aside for a specific business classification, is for a research grant titled "LINKING CONVECTIVE PROCESSES AND SATELLITE LIGHTNING MEASUREMENTS: NEW INSIGHTS FROM MODERN ANALYSIS OF CLOUD, PRECIPITATION, AND LIGHTNING...
- This federal contract award, NNX16AD24G, was granted by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to Texas Tech University System for three years of work related to the validation of the Geostationary Lightning Mapper (GLM) instrument on the GOES-R operational geostationary meteorological satellite. The GLM will provide continuous observations of lightning activity from geostationary orbit, significantly enhancing scientists' ability to study the role of lightning in severe...
- The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) awarded a $158,493.03 grant for research to the University of Washington on January 30, 2019. This grant is a follow-on study to a previous NOAA grant, in which the University of Washington participated in the NOAA GOES-R Cal/Val Team to validate and analyze data from the new space-based NOAA lightning location instruments, the Geostationary Lightning Mapper (GLM) and the Lightning Imaging Sensor (LIS). The research involves comparing...
