About this award
This is a $593,170.00 grant award to the California Institute of Technology (Caltech), a private research university located in Pasadena, California. The award is for the project "SOUTHERN OCEAN ENERGETICS FROM SWOT: LARGE-SCALE JETS TO SMALL SCALE EDDIES" and has an ultimate completion date of August 4, 2028.
Caltech, which is not a set-aside contract, is a well-established federal contractor and grant recipient, frequently collaborating with major research institutions and federal agencies such as NASA, the Department of Defense, DARPA, and the National Science Foundation. The award indicates Caltech's expertise in advanced scientific research across diverse domains, including space exploration, quantum technologies, astrophysics, and climate science. While the specific details of the project are not provided, the award suggests Caltech will be conducting research on ocean energetics using data from the Surface Water and Ocean Topography (SWOT) satellite mission, potentially contributing to the understanding of large-scale ocean currents and small-scale eddies.
