About this award

This is a $123,328 federal grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of Maryland, College Park. The grant is for a research project titled "Exploring A-Train Observations of Land-Ocean Contrast in Convective Cloud Characteristics and Their Ambient Environment Toward Improving GCM Cumulus Parameterizations." The project involves using data from NASA's A-Train satellite constellation to study the differences in convective cloud behavior over land versus ocean, with the goal of improving the representation of cumulus cloud processes in global climate models. The grant has an ultimate completion date of October 16, 2025. The University of Maryland, College Park is a state-controlled institution of higher education that has received numerous federal research grants and contracts from agencies such as the Department of Defense, Department of Transportation, and NASA.
