About this award

The University of Alabama was awarded a $603,581 research grant effective February 1, 2023, with a completion date of January 31, 2027, to develop water quality and storage monitoring services for the Great Lakes region of Eastern and Southern Africa. The project integrates multi-sensor satellite observations, machine-learning models, and cloud computing platforms to advance environmental monitoring capabilities in the target region. The award was issued through a civilian federal agency's Shared Services Center with no set-aside designation, indicating competitive selection based on technical merit. Work will be performed at the university's Office for Sponsored Programs Division in Tuscaloosa, Alabama.

This research initiative aligns with the University of Alabama's established expertise in environmental research, water resource management, and advanced technological applications. The contract leverages the institution's capabilities in satellite data analysis, artificial intelligence, and computational modeling—areas in which the university has demonstrated proficiency through prior federal research awards from agencies including the National Science Foundation, Department of Energy, and the Environmental Protection Agency. The integration of machine-learning models and cloud computing infrastructure reflects contemporary approaches to addressing complex environmental challenges, particularly for regions with limited ground-based monitoring infrastructure.
