About this award
The University of Maryland Baltimore County (UMBC) was awarded a $355,587 grant on June 7, 2024, to investigate global ionospheric conductivity variabilities driven by E-region electron density. This research grant, funded through a civilian federal agency's Shared Services Center, will be performed at UMBC's Baltimore, Maryland campus and is scheduled for completion by June 6, 2028. The contract represents a non-competitive research award without small business set-aside designation, reflecting UMBC's established capabilities as a research institution conducting federally funded scientific investigations.
This award supports fundamental research into ionospheric phenomena, contributing to understanding of Earth's upper atmosphere and its variability. As a public research university with extensive experience managing federal research grants across multiple agencies including NASA, the National Science Foundation, and the Department of Energy, UMBC is well-positioned to execute this four-year investigation. The grant aligns with the university's broader portfolio of Earth science and space physics research initiatives and continues UMBC's role as a key federal research partner in advancing scientific knowledge across physical sciences and technological domains.
