About this award
The University of Texas at Dallas (UTD) was awarded a $377,825 research grant on January 1, 2022, to investigate the response of the ionosphere/thermosphere system to forcing by atmospheric waves. This civilian research contract, managed through a shared services center, supports scientific inquiry into upper atmospheric dynamics and is scheduled for completion by June 30, 2026. The work will be performed at UTD's Richardson, Texas campus. No small business set-aside designation was applied to this award, reflecting UTD's competitive standing in open federal research competitions.
As a child entity of the University of Texas System, UTD brings substantial research credentials to this project, with demonstrated expertise in space physics and advanced scientific research through prior federal funding from agencies including the National Science Foundation, National Aeronautics and Space Administration, and the Department of Energy. The grant advances fundamental scientific knowledge in atmospheric science and ionospheric physics, areas critical to understanding space weather phenomena, communication systems, and navigation technologies that depend on reliable ionospheric conditions.
