About this award
This is a $460,588.00 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Shared Services Center to the Planetary Science Institute (PSI), a non-profit research organization based in Tucson, Arizona. The grant is for a research project titled "Seasonal, Annual, and Multidirectional Sand Flux Trends Related to Global or Regional Forcing Factors" that aims to investigate the role of wind in transporting sediment on Mars. The grant does not utilize a set-aside designation, indicating that PSI was selected based on its technical capabilities in planetary science research. PSI has an extensive history of supporting NASA's planetary exploration goals through a diverse portfolio of contract and grant awards, spanning topics such as data analysis, mission planning, and instrument development. This grant is part of NASA's broader efforts to better understand the geological history and environmental conditions on Mars.
Description
1. Background and motivation wind has been an enduring geologic agent throughout mars history, but IT is often unclear when, where, and why sediment is mobile in the current epoch. Spatial variations in sand fluxes relate to external forcing factors
