About this award
The University of California San Diego's Scripps Institution of Oceanography was awarded an $482,888 research grant on August 5, 2024, to conduct a multi-system, multi-timescale analysis exploring estuarine sea level fluctuations and dynamics using the Surface Water and Ocean Topography (SWOT) mission. The work will be performed in La Jolla, California, with an ultimate completion date of August 4, 2028. This non-set-aside grant supports fundamental oceanographic research aimed at understanding coastal water dynamics through data collected by NASA's SWOT satellite mission, which measures water surface elevation across the globe's oceans, lakes, and rivers with unprecedented spatial resolution.
The grant funding originates from a civilian federal agency and leverages UCSD's established expertise in oceanographic research and advanced observational technologies. Scripps Institution of Oceanography, as a world-leading center for ocean and earth science research, is well-positioned to analyze SWOT mission data and contribute critical insights into estuarine systems, which are ecologically sensitive areas where rivers meet the ocean. This research aligns with the institution's broader portfolio of climate science and marine ecosystem studies, often conducted in collaboration with other research institutions and federal agencies including NASA and the National Science Foundation.
