About this award

This is a $817,928 grant awarded to the Illinois Institute of Technology (IIT) by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to study the role of Lagrangian Coherent Structures in coupling the ionosphere-atmosphere during weak and strong polar vortices. The grant is a research contract with a performance period ending on December 31, 2026. IIT is a private research university in Chicago that frequently partners with federal agencies on scientific and technical projects. This research grant does not have any set-aside designation. IIT has several other significant indefinite delivery/indefinite quantity (IDIQ) contracts with federal agencies, including the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases and the National Cancer Institute, to provide specialized research and development services. The agency's interest in this work suggests it is part of NASA's broader scientific investigations related to space weather and atmospheric phenomena.
