About this award
The University of Washington's Office of Sponsored Programs has been awarded a $225.7K research grant by a civilian federal agency to conduct research characterizing the role of the ocean in Arctic sea ice biases within the NASA Goddard Institute for Space Studies Earth System Model (GISS ESM). The contract, designated 23-MAP23-0019, is a non-set-aside grant award with performance to be conducted in Seattle, Washington, and an ultimate completion date of January 13, 2029. This research supports NASA's climate modeling efforts by investigating oceanographic factors that contribute to predictive biases in Arctic sea ice representation, which is critical for improving the accuracy of Earth system models used in climate projections and polar science applications.
As a leading research institution, the University of Washington brings substantial expertise in environmental and climate science research to this effort. The award reflects the university's competitive selection to contribute specialized research capabilities to advance understanding of coupled ocean-ice system dynamics. This grant-funded work complements UW's broader portfolio of federally-sponsored research spanning the National Aeronautics and Space Administration, National Science Foundation, Department of Energy, and other agencies, positioning the institution as a key partner in supporting national priorities in climate science and Arctic research.
