About this award

The University of Utah received a $515,149 grant from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) to support research on the assimilation of all-sky Geostationary Operational Environmental Satellite-R (GOES-R) data at high temporal and spatial resolution to improve understanding and prediction of tropical convection. The contract was awarded on August 1, 2023, with performance conducted at the University of Utah's Salt Lake City, Utah campus under the Office of Sponsored Projects Division. This research grant carries no set-aside designation and is scheduled for completion by July 31, 2026.

This award represents a continuation of NOAA's investment in advanced satellite meteorology and convective weather prediction capabilities. By leveraging high-resolution GOES-R imagery and data assimilation techniques, the University of Utah's research will enhance forecasting models and improve scientific understanding of tropical convection processes—critical for severe weather prediction, hurricane tracking, and climate research. As a prominent public research institution with extensive federal contracting experience across multiple scientific domains, the University of Utah brings established expertise in atmospheric science research and collaborative partnerships with other academic and government institutions to this initiative.
