About this award
The University of California, Santa Barbara (UCSB) was awarded a $530,597 research grant on January 27, 2023, to improve process-based understanding of how terrestrial water storage can enhance seasonal-to-interannual (S2S) hydrologic forecast skill in data-sparse regions. This civilian research grant, funded through a Shared Services Center and administered under solicitation 21-S2SHYD-21-0030, will be performed at UCSB's Santa Barbara campus through January 26, 2027. The research addresses a critical need in hydrological forecasting by developing methodologies to better incorporate terrestrial water storage data into predictive models, which has significant implications for water resource management and disaster preparedness in regions with limited observational infrastructure.
This non-competed grant award recognizes UCSB's established capabilities as a Hispanic-Serving Institution and Land Grant College with extensive federal research experience across multiple scientific domains. The university's Office of Research regularly performs advanced research for agencies including the National Science Foundation, NASA, and the National Institutes of Health. This particular project contributes to broader federal efforts in climate and water resource science, leveraging UCSB's interdisciplinary research strengths to advance hydrological prediction methodologies that can inform water management and climate adaptation strategies in vulnerable regions worldwide.
