The University of Maryland Baltimore County (UMBC) has been awarded a $299,613 research grant by a civilian federal agency through the Shared Services Center, effective June 29, 2023, with completion targeted for June 28, 2026. The grant, titled "Advancing Satellite-Constrained Modeled Air-Sea CO2 Fluxes with a Focus on the Strength of the Southern Ocean Carbon Sink," supports climate and Earth science research aimed at improving understanding of carbon dioxide exchange between the atmosphere and ocean surfaces, with particular emphasis on the Southern Ocean's role as a carbon sink. UMBC will conduct this research from its Baltimore, Maryland location. The award carries no small business set-aside designation and is classified as a research grant with other pricing arrangements.
UMBC, a public research university and child entity within the University System of Maryland, brings established capabilities in Earth science and environmental research to this project. The university serves as the prime contractor and will leverage its interdisciplinary research infrastructure to advance satellite-based modeling of air-sea CO2 interactions. This research aligns with federal priorities in climate science and contributes to national efforts to better quantify ocean carbon sequestration, which is critical for climate modeling and understanding the effectiveness of natural carbon sinks in mitigating atmospheric CO2 concentrations.
