About this award

This is a $313,431.00 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution (WHOI), a private non-profit research organization, for a study on tidal heating, a fundamental planetary process that provides heat sources for many satellites in the outer solar system. The grant, with an ultimate completion date of October 25, 2023, will fund research into the tidal heating of moons like Io, Enceladus, and Europa. WHOI is a world-leading oceanographic institution that frequently collaborates with government agencies on marine research and technology development. This grant contributes to WHOI's extensive portfolio of federally funded projects across disciplines such as physical oceanography, marine geology, and climate science. The award does not have a set-aside designation.

Description

Objectives and methodology: tidal heating is a fundamental planetary process, and provides an important heat source for many satellites in the outer solar, such as the very volcanically active moon IO, and the ICY moons enceladus and europa
