About this award
This $403,617 federal grant award was made by the Shared Services Center, a civilian agency, to the Trustees of Boston University, a private non-profit educational institution, to provide mechanistic explanations of observed geographical patterns in the impact of soil moisture on subsequent precipitation occurrence. The objective is to identify the role of soil moisture memory in precipitation variability using data from NASA's Soil Moisture Active Passive (SMAP) mission and cloud-topped mixed layer models. This research grant does not have a set-aside designation and is part of Boston University's extensive federal research portfolio, which includes long-term Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) contracts with agencies like the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute for the Framingham Heart Study and the Department of Veterans Affairs for neuroimaging research services.
