About this award
New York University has been awarded a $1.32M grant by a civilian federal agency to conduct research on submesoscale ocean transport estimation using Surface Water and Ocean Topography (SWOT) satellite observations. Under contract 23-SWOTST23-0089, NYU will leverage machine learning algorithms, realistic oceanographic simulations, and in-situ observations to infer submesoscale transport directly from SWOT-derived sea surface height data. The research is scheduled for completion by August 1, 2028, with work to be performed at NYU's campus in New York, NY. This award carries no small business set-aside designation and was competitively awarded as a research grant.
The project addresses a critical need in oceanographic research to better understand and quantify upper ocean currents at submesoscale resolution, which is essential for improving climate modeling, ocean circulation understanding, and environmental forecasting. NYU's extensive research portfolio across oceanography, computational sciences, and artificial intelligence positions the institution well to execute this multidisciplinary effort that combines observational data with advanced analytical techniques to unlock new insights from satellite oceanography.
