The University of Wyoming, operating as Sponsored Programs, was awarded a $248,320.53 grant from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to conduct research on the interactions between hydrometeors and small-scale turbulent motions. This project will leverage a combination of NASA field campaign data, a unique cloud-in-a-box laboratory setup, direct numerical simulations (DNS), and large eddy simulations (LES) to develop a novel parameterization of the two-way coupling between...
This is a $235,747.30 grant awarded to the University of Wyoming by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) on July 6, 2017. The grant supports a research project focused on improving the modeling of dust aerosol and its climate impacts using data from the CALIPSO and CloudSat satellites. The project aims to develop a new 3-dimensional dataset of dust aerosol distributions, evaluate and improve dust aerosol representation in climate models, and study the direct and indirect...
This federal contract award, valued at $475,607.00, was granted to the University of Wyoming (UW) by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to conduct research on subtropical shortwave cloud feedback. The contract is a grant for research, with a period of performance ending on July 31, 2026. The award is not set aside for any specific business category, indicating UW's ability to compete broadly for federal contracting opportunities. The University of Wyoming has a strong track...
This is a $135,000.00 grant awarded to the University of Wyoming (UW) by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to conduct research on dust in the interstellar medium. The research is aimed at improving our understanding of both galactic and extragalactic objects. The University of Wyoming, doing business as Sponsored Programs, is a major public land-grant research university located in Laramie, Wyoming. It has significant expertise in areas such as atmospheric science,...
This federal contract award was made by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of Wyoming (UW) for an environmental research project titled "AN ESM FREE APPROACH FOR DUST DIRECT RADIATIVE EFFECT ESTIMATIONS BASED ON EMIT, CALIPSO, AND MINERALOGY RESOLVED DUST OPTICAL PROPERTY MODELS". The $270,753.00 grant-funded project will run until March 19, 2027. UW, a public land-grant research university, will perform the research work at its Laramie,...
The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) has awarded a $400,308.00 grant to the University of Wisconsin System to conduct research on precipitation patterns over the global oceans. This grant, which does not have a set-aside designation, will run through May 31, 2025. The University of Wisconsin System, through its University of Wisconsin - Madison division operating as Research and Sponsored Programs, has a history of conducting federally-funded research, including projects...
The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) awarded a $315,074 grant to the University of Wisconsin System to study the 3D structure and frequency of occluded extratropical cyclones and their impact on cloud and precipitation patterns. The research aims to use observations from the CloudSat and CALIPSO satellites to analyze how cloud and precipitation distributions evolve during the occlusion process and how they are influenced by large-scale environmental factors. The findings will...
This is a $562,161 federal grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Shared Services Center to the University of Washington (UW) to conduct research on the response of low clouds to changing atmospheric composition. The work aims to gain a better understanding of the spatial and temporal relationships between precipitation, microphysics, and cloud radiative properties, which are critical for improving climate model physics. The research will leverage data from...
This is a $102,000.00 training grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of Wyoming (UW) for research on computational methods for aerospace design optimization. The project focuses on developing an "adjoint-based approach" to accurately compute design sensitivities even when the underlying analysis models are not fully converged, which is a common challenge in complex aerospace simulations. This capability will enable more reliable...
The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Shared Services Center awarded a $170,585.47 grant to the University of Washington (UW) to examine the interaction between the wind-driven ocean surface and the geostrophically-dominated interior ocean. The goal is to establish a mechanistic understanding of how mesoscale eddies modulate and trap the near-surface mixed layer. This work will build on previous research funded by the North Atlantic Aerosols and Marine Ecosystems Study...
