About this award
The Trustees of Boston University received a $354,982.50 research grant from NASA's Shared Services Center, with an ultimate completion date of August 31, 2024. This grant supports research focused on large-scale and continuous patterns of forest carbon monitoring, which aligns with NASA's Carbon Monitoring Program and Terrestrial Ecology Program objectives. The project utilizes Light Detection and Ranging (LIDAR) remote sensing technology to capture vertical forest structure on a wall-to-wall basis, enabling comprehensive analysis of global forest dynamics and carbon accumulation patterns.
The research employs a theory-based integrative analysis approach that fuses data from both active and passive sensors to advance understanding of changing forest structure and biomass carbon accumulation in forests worldwide. This grant represents a key partnership between Boston University's research capabilities and NASA's mission to monitor and understand forest carbon dynamics on a global scale. No set-aside designation was utilized for this award, which was presented as a standard research grant with an other pricing type structure.
Description
