About this award

This is a $936,609.00 federal grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Shared Services Center to the University Corporation for Atmospheric Research (UCAR) to conduct research on ionospheric outflow and its impact on global magnetosphere dynamics. UCAR manages the National Center for Atmospheric Research (NCAR) and will leverage its expertise and facilities in Earth system science to perform this work. The grant does not have a set-aside designation. UCAR frequently collaborates with university partners through subawards to advance understanding of critical atmospheric and climate-related phenomena. This research aligns with UCAR/NCAR's long-standing partnership with NASA to support the agency's Earth science objectives through specialized atmospheric R&D services.

Description

Ionospheric outflow consists of ions that have escaped the upper atmosphere and flow into the magnetosphere where they impact the global magnetosphere dynamics that feedback into the upper atmosphere. The amount of ION outflow is determined by the
