- This federal contract award, valued at $180,198.00, was granted by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration's (NASA) Shared Services Center to the Carnegie Institution of Washington, doing business as the Carnegie Institution for Science. The award supports the extension of the institution's regional modeling for NASA's Carbon Monitoring System (CMS) to estimate North American carbon dioxide (CO2) fluxes through mid-2018, with a focus on improving uncertainty quantification. The work...
- This is a $177,770.54 federal grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to Atmospheric & Environmental Research Inc., a for-profit corporation that provides weather and climate research services to the government. The grant supports the validation and application of data from NASA's Orbiting Carbon Observatory-2 (OCO-2) satellite in the northeastern United States. The key objectives are to: 1) assess OCO-2's ability to accurately measure regional-scale...

The $433,379.00 grant is funded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) and aims to advance society's ability to predict and manage future climate change by enabling policy-relevant quantification of the carbon cycle. The research will develop and demonstrate new...
- This is a $172,613 grant award from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the Carnegie Institution of Washington, doing business as the Carnegie Institution for Science, a renowned non-profit research organization. The grant, titled "INVESTIGATING THE INFLUENCE OF PARENT BODY AQUEOUS ALTERATION ON THE STABLE ISOTOPIC COMPOSITIONS OF METEORITIC SOLUBLE ORGANIC MATTER," will fund research to study the impact of aqueous alteration on the stable isotopic...
- This is a $440,227.28 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of Colorado (CU) to support research related to the Orbiting Carbon Observatory-2 (OCO-2) satellite mission. The grant will fund a multi-year effort to utilize high-altitude aircore measurements and aircraft data to improve the bias corrections and scaling of OCO-2 total column carbon dioxide (XCO2) retrievals, and to evaluate the accuracy of flux estimates from OCO-2 data in climate...
- This is a research grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of Colorado, doing business as the Office of Contracts and Grants Division, to study the impact of 3D cloud and surface effects on the accuracy of carbon dioxide (CO2) measurements from the Orbiting Carbon Observatory-2 (OCO-2) satellite. The $543,955.44 grant will fund the development of algorithms to detect 3D cloud effects, quantify associated biases in retrieved CO2 data, and assess...
- This is a $524,030 grant awarded by the Shared Services Center, a civilian federal agency, to the Carnegie Institution of Washington (doing business as Carnegie Institution for Science), a non-profit research organization. The grant is for a project titled "Quantifying Climate Sensitivities of Photosynthesis and Respiration in Arctic and Boreal Ecosystems from Top-Down Observational Constraints." This research-oriented grant does not have a set-aside designation, indicating open...
- This is a $397,378.80 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to Colorado State University (CSU) to continue the activities of the OCO-2 Flux Inversion Theme Group's global CO2 flux inversion model intercomparison project for an additional three years. The project aims to help interpret the scientific content of new updates to the Orbiting Carbon Observatory 2 (OCO-2) and future OCO-3 CO2 data products, and validate them against in-situ measurements and flux...
- This is a $206,697.88 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Shared Services Center to the University Corporation for Atmospheric Research (UCAR), the National Center for Atmospheric Research (NCAR), to quantify global carbon cycle flux responses to climate variation and trends over the course of the Orbiting Carbon Observatory-2 (OCO-2) mission and earlier Greenhouse gases Observing SATellite (GOSAT) record. The project combines expertise in atmospheric,...
This is a 16-month extension to an existing project funded through the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA)'s 2011 Science Team for the Orbiting Carbon Observatory-2 (OCO-2) mission. The $167,784 grant to the Carnegie Institution of Washington (doing business as Carnegie Institution for Science), a nonprofit research organization, will expand three ongoing projects related to the OCO-2 mission. This includes developing tools for mapping atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO2) concentrations, assessing the value of OCO-2 data for constraining the North American carbon balance, and creating a global data assimilation system to ingest OCO-2 observations. The extended work will contribute to validation, flux inversion analysis, observing strategy assessments, and other research using OCO-2 data. The award does not have a set-aside designation.
