- This $90,000.00 grant award from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Shared Services Center was made to the County of Sonoma, Sonoma County Agricultural Preservation & Open Space District. The objective of this rapid response effort is to better inform application science in disaster response, watershed management, and land use/land cover change analysis to provide residents and local, state, and regional decision makers with critically needed information for fire...
- This is a Training Grant awarded to the University of Washington by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Shared Services Center on September 1, 2018 with a potential value of $135,000.00. The purpose of the grant is to study tree mortality patterns using a combination of field, airborne, and space-borne data to measure individual tree vigor and aboveground carbon storage in a forested ecoregion adapted to frequent fire, with a focus on the Sierra Nevada region of...
- This is a $548,426 grant awarded to the University of Maryland, College Park (UMD) by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Shared Services Center. The grant supports the expansion and curation of a global field and airborne LIDAR database to calibrate and validate the algorithms for NASA's GEDI (Global Ecosystem Dynamics Investigation) spaceborne LIDAR instrument, as well as other space-based biomass monitoring missions like NASA's NISAR and ICESat-2, and ESA's BIOMASS. The...

The award is not a set-aside contract. UCLA, as the prime...
- The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) awarded a $135,000 grant for research to the University of California, Santa Barbara (UCSB), a public research university. The grant, which does not have a set-aside designation, will support UCSB's fundamental and unclassified research across disciplines in science, technology, engineering, mathematics, and medicine, including areas such as quantum computing, photonics, materials science, and biotechnology. UCSB has previously conducted...
- This $97,475.89 federal grant was awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of California Santa Cruz (UCSC) to examine the in situ dynamics of coastal phytoplankton blooms in relation to routine harmful algal bloom (HAB) forecasting models. The purpose is to assess the ecosystem response to the 2016 El Niño-Southern Oscillation (ENSO) event in the California Current. This work supports NASA's Harmful Algal Bloom Response program. The grant does not...
- The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) has awarded a $311,890.00 grant to the University of California, Berkeley (UC Berkeley) to conduct research on the hypothesis that "snow and soil moisture alter large-scale meteorological patterns through the modification of surface fluxes." The award is for a research project and does not have a set-aside designation. UC Berkeley is the prime contractor for this grant, and the State of California Controllers Office is the parent...
- The U.S. government's National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) awarded a $171,415 grant to Spatial Informatics Group LLC, a research and consulting firm specializing in geospatial analysis and spatial modeling. The grant is for expanding the Regional Wildfire Mitigation Program (RWMP) concept, which involves developing quantitative wildfire modeling and planning tools. This grant is part of NASA's Earth Information System (EIS) Fire project, and Spatial Informatics Group has...
- This $2,360,091.00 federal grant award to Colorado State University (CSU) from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) aims to integrate innovative observation capabilities into coupled wildfire models for improved active fire forecasting. The 3-year project, which runs through August 2026, involves developing advanced technologies to enhance wildfire monitoring and predictive modeling. CSU, a public land-grant research university, has extensive expertise in environmental...
- This is a $105,000.00 training grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of California, Santa Barbara (UCSB) to evaluate the potential of NASA's proposed HyspIRI (Hyperspectral Infrared Imager) mission for ecosystem monitoring at the plant species level. The research aims to assess the capability of HyspIRI's visible-shortwave infrared (VSWIR) and thermal infrared (TIR) spectra to identify California plant species, analyze seasonal and...
The County of Humboldt, California was awarded a $123.5K research grant by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Shared Services Center to develop actionable Light Detection and Ranging (LIDAR)-based data for wildfire prevention planning, response, and rehabilitation on California's North Coast. The contract, awarded October 1, 2022, is scheduled for completion on February 28, 2025, and involves Humboldt County Public Works as the performing division. No set-aside designation was utilized for this award. This grant supports the development of LIDAR-derived datasets and analysis products to enhance wildfire mitigation capabilities across the North Coast region. The effort aligns with NASA's broader mission to provide Earth observation and remote sensing data for natural disaster management and environmental planning. Given Humboldt County's demonstrated track record in wildfire prevention planning and community wildfire protection initiatives, this award builds on existing local expertise while leveraging NASA's geospatial technology capabilities to address the significant wildfire risks facing California's coastal communities.
