About this award
The University of Texas at Austin was awarded a $1.2M research grant (23-SWOTST23-0056) on August 5, 2024, to support research on predicting flux partitioning in river delta networks using the Surface Water and Ocean Topography (SWOT) mission. The grant, funded through a civilian federal agency's Shared Services Center, will support research activities performed in Austin, Texas, with an ultimate completion date of August 4, 2028. This non-competitive award carries no set-aside designation, reflecting UT Austin's demonstrated capabilities as a leading research institution. The research aims to produce global delta products and quantify how deltas respond to climate change and human-induced alterations—critical objectives for understanding hydrological processes and environmental changes in complex delta systems worldwide.
SWOT is a NASA-CNES joint satellite mission designed to measure water surface elevation, extent, and slope for rivers, lakes, and reservoirs globally. This grant leverages SWOT data to advance understanding of water flux distribution through delta networks, contributing to broader climate science and water resource management initiatives. UT Austin's extensive track record in federal research funding, particularly in climate science, computational modeling, and environmental monitoring through partnerships with agencies including NASA and the National Science Foundation, positions it well to execute this sophisticated research program that bridges satellite remote sensing, hydrological science, and delta geomorphology.
