About this award

The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) awarded a $685,146 grant contract to the University of California San Diego (UCSD) to support modeling efforts that more effectively utilize in-situ spacecraft plasma data to update UCSD's tomographic analysis forecasts. The research will be performed at UCSD's La Jolla, California campus over a two year period ending in October 2022. As the prime contractor, UCSD will utilize its expertise in plasma physics and space weather modeling to enhance NASA's forecasting capabilities through improved incorporation of direct spacecraft observations into its models. No subcontractors or set aside designations were identified. The award provides needed funding for UCSD to advance NASA's goals of developing more accurate space weather prediction through innovative research techniques.
