- This federal contract award is a $289,443.64 grant to the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution, a private, non-profit research organization, from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA). The grant is for research to test and improve hypotheses about the drivers of sea surface salinity variability in the Tropical Eastern Pacific Fresh Pool, leveraging new satellite salinity data. The research will involve field observations collected during the Salinity Processes in the Upper...
- This is a grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the Cambridge Climate Institute, Inc., a non-profit organization, for research related to the ocean water cycle and surface salinity. The grant, valued at $135,619.05, will investigate the relationship between the ocean water cycle and surface salinity, and provide expertise towards improving the estimates of freshwater fluxes using salinity measurements, including those from NASA's Aquarius satellite mission....
- This is a $585,760 grant award from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to Earth And Space Research (ESR), a nonprofit oceanographic research institute. The grant funds a project to investigate processes controlling sea surface salinity (SSS) patterns and variability, evaluate the sensitivity of salinity budgets to data sources and resolution, and analyze the dynamical impacts of upper ocean salinity on air-sea interactions relevant to climate phenomena. The project...
- This is a grant award from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Shared Services Center to the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution, a private non-profit organization focused on ocean research. The $441,148.13 grant will fund research to improve the understanding of seasonal and long-term variability in subtropical sea surface salinity, which is important for monitoring the ocean water cycle. The research will analyze satellite and Argo data to study the relationships...
- The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) awarded a $168,472.72 grant to Earth And Space Research (ESR), a nonprofit research institute, for the Soil Moisture Active Passive (SMAP) and Aquarius missions, which provide valuable observations of sea surface salinity (SSS). The grant is for research and was awarded on July 24, 2018, with a completion date of January 31, 2019. ESR has been awarded multiple prime contracts and subcontracts by NASA and the National Science Foundation for...
- This $442,503.36 grant award to Earth And Space Research (ESR), a nonprofit oceanographic research institute, was made by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to study near-surface salinity stratification. The research aims to investigate the processes controlling the generation and evolution of freshwater lenses in the Intertropical Convergence Zone, which create discrepancies between satellite-derived sea surface salinity data and in-situ measurements. ESR will combine...
- This is a $556,146 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to Earth and Space Research (ESR), a nonprofit oceanographic research institute. The three-year study aims to improve the existing sea surface salinity (SSS) satellite data validation framework beyond the previous Aquarius mission, in order to support NASA's ongoing ocean salinity science program. The grant will enable ESR to enhance the Aquarius Validation Data System (AVDS) to a more versatile Salinity...
- This is a $572,358.05 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of New Hampshire (UNH), operating through its Office of Sponsored Research, to investigate interannual variability in freshwater transport along the northwest Atlantic shelf using satellite salinity data. The grant supports a collaborative effort between UNH, the University of Maryland, and the French Research Institute for Exploitation of the Sea (IFREMER) to evaluate the use of...
- This is a one-year, $128,422 research grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the nonprofit institute Earth and Space Research (ESR). The goal of the study is to validate and extend the continuity of sea surface salinity (SSS) data from the recently completed Aquarius mission to the ongoing Soil Moisture Active Passive (SMAP) mission. ESR has extensive experience analyzing Aquarius SSS data and will repeat similar analyses to document comparable salinity...
- This federal contract award is a $128,422 grant from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to Earth and Space Research (ESR), a non-profit research institute. The goal of this 1-year study is to extend and improve the continuity of sea surface salinity (SSS) satellite data from the previous NASA Aquarius mission to the ongoing NASA Soil Moisture Active Passive (SMAP) mission. ESR, which has extensive experience with the Aquarius data, will validate the satellite SSS variations...
