The University of California, Santa Barbara (UCSB) Office of Research was awarded an $792,941 grant on December 2, 2021, to conduct research titled "Quantifying Ocean Primary Production and Carbon Export by Combining Satellite and Oceanographic Tracer Observations in a Global Inverse Model." This research grant, which extends through December 31, 2026, will be performed at UCSB's Santa Barbara, California location. The award was not designated as a set-aside and represents competitive funding from the Shared Services Center. The research initiative addresses critical questions related to marine biogeochemistry and climate science by integrating satellite observations with oceanographic tracer data to develop improved global-scale modeling capabilities for understanding carbon cycling in ocean systems. This grant supports fundamental research aligned with UCSB's recognized expertise in climate science and environmental research. The project combines remote sensing data with in-situ oceanographic measurements to advance understanding of how carbon moves through ocean ecosystems—a key component of global carbon cycling and climate science research. As a Hispanic-Serving Institution and Land Grant College, UCSB frequently engages in such interdisciplinary research initiatives that advance scientific knowledge while providing training opportunities for graduate and undergraduate students. The work will likely contribute to improved climate models and enhanced understanding of ocean productivity dynamics, supporting broader federal initiatives in climate and environmental science research.
