About this award

This is a $675,000 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of California, San Diego (UCSD) Scripps Institution of Oceanography to quantify the processes affecting the buttressing capacity of East Antarctica's ice shelves using data from the ICESat-2 and CryoSat-2 satellites, as well as optical satellite imagery. The award is not set aside under any special contracting program. UCSD is a renowned public research university and home to the Scripps Institution of Oceanography, a world-leading center for ocean and earth science research. Through this grant, UCSD will conduct advanced research to better understand the factors influencing the stability of East Antarctic ice shelves, which play a crucial role in moderating global climate change. The findings from this project will support NASA's broader Earth science mission and contribute to the agency's efforts to monitor and understand the impacts of climate change on polar regions.
