About this award

The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill received a $1.58M grant award from the Shared Services Center to continue research on lake observations using citizen scientists and satellite data. The project, titled "Lake Observations from Citizen Scientists and Satellites: Validation of Satellite Altimetry to Support Hydrologic Science Continuation Phase," is scheduled for completion by December 24, 2026, and will be performed at UNC-CH's Chapel Hill, North Carolina location. This is a research grant with no set-aside designation, awarded to the university's Office of Sponsored Research on December 25, 2022.

The project focuses on validating satellite altimetry data through citizen science observations to advance hydrologic science research. This continuation phase builds on prior work combining crowdsourced data collection with satellite measurement technology to improve understanding of lake water levels and hydrological systems. UNC-CH, as a major research institution with extensive experience managing federal research grants and contracts across multiple scientific disciplines, is well-positioned to execute this interdisciplinary effort that leverages both community engagement and advanced remote sensing technology.
