About this award

This federal contract award, with ID NNX17AD72G, is a grant for research awarded by the Shared Services Center, a civilian federal agency, to Resources for the Future Inc., a non-profit research organization. The award, valued at $158,988.00, supports additional research to characterize the socioeconomic benefits of drought and flood forecasts developed under a primary project. The research team has a working relationship with the primary project investigators, facilitating data and analysis sharing. The award does not have a set-aside designation and is intended to provide a quantitative impact assessment and evaluation of integrating data from the Gravity Recovery and Climate Experiment (GRACE) and GRACE Follow-On missions into flood forecasting.

Description

We propose additional research to characterize the socioeconomic benefits of the grace-based drought and flood forecasts that will be developed by the primary project. Our social science research team recently completed a project to quantify the value the information (VOI) from the existing suite of weekly grace data assimilation (DA) based drought/wetness indicators conducting a VOI analysis for grace-based forecasts is a natural extension of this previous work. Our research team has a working relationship with investigators from the primary project, which will facilitate the exchange of data, analyses, and modeling capabilities between the proposed project and the primary project. We will also ensure that results from our project are communicated regularly to investigators from the primary project.
