About this award

Written by GovTribe AI ·

The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) has awarded a $503,541 grant to Earth And Space Research (ESR), a non-profit institute specializing in oceanographic research. The grant is for research to study the factors contributing to Antarctic ice sheet mass loss, including basal melting and the calving of icebergs from ice shelves. ESR has previously received multiple prime and subcontract awards from NASA to conduct research on topics such as sea surface salinity, ocean eddies, and ice sheet mass balance. This grant does not have a set-aside designation and is scheduled for completion by April 30, 2025.
