About this award

This federal contract award, valued at $483,955.00, was granted to Portland State University (PSU) by the Shared Services Center, a civilian federal agency. The contract is for research to characterize snow albedo (reflectivity) across spatial and temporal scales in the Alaskan boreal forest region, evaluate uncertainties in current remote sensing products, and develop improved modeling of snow albedo and its impacts on snow hydrology. This research aims to address key uncertainties in global climate and hydrological models regarding the misrepresentation of snow albedo in the rapidly changing boreal forest ecosystem. The contract does not have a set-aside designation, indicating PSU's competitive capabilities in this domain. The research will support the upcoming Surface Biology and Geology (SBG) satellite mission's calibration and validation activities, as well as contribute to the SnowEx Alaska 2022 field data collection effort.
