About this award

This federal contract award, ID 80NSSC21K0917, was granted by the Shared Services Center of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of California, Irvine (UC Irvine) on May 20, 2021. The $484,367.00 grant is for a research project aimed at improving estimates of ice mass balance in Antarctica by combining observations from NASA's ICESat/OIB/ICESat-2 laser altimetry missions and the Gravity Recovery and Climate Experiment (GRACE)/GRACE-Follow On (GRACE-FO) missions. The contract has no set-aside designation and is scheduled for completion on May 19, 2026. As a premier research university, UC Irvine has a strong track record of federal contract and grant awards, leveraging its expertise in areas such as biomedical engineering, materials science, and aerospace technologies to support various government agencies, including the Department of Defense, Department of Veterans Affairs, and Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA).

Description

We propose to improve estimates of ICE mass balance in antarctica by combining observations of surface elevation change from the icesat/OIB/icesat-2 laser altimetry missions with time-variable gravity from the grace/grace-FO missions, reconstructions
