About this award
This is a $522,289.60 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University Corporation for Atmospheric Research (UCAR), doing business as the National Center for Atmospheric Research (NCAR), to support the Soil Moisture Active Passive (SMAP) science mission. The SMAP mission was originally intended to provide soil moisture estimates at a 10 km spatial resolution with a 3-day revisit interval, but the mission's radar malfunctioned in 2015, leading to the need for coarser resolution data. This grant, awarded on September 9, 2020, will support the SMAP mission through its ultimate completion date of September 8, 2024. UCAR, a non-profit organization, is the prime contractor and will likely collaborate with university and research institution partners to execute the grant. The award is not associated with a set-aside designation.
Description
The baseline smap science mission was to provide soil moisture estimates at a 10 KM spatial resolution, with an average revisit interval of 3 days. After the malfunction of the radar in 2015, the smap mission could only provide coarse resolution
