- This federal contract was awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Shared Services Center to Michigan Technological University, a public research university. The $162,809 grant funds research to develop an improved mathematical framework for understanding mineral potential in India's Hutti-Maski Greenstone Belt using NASA's Airborne Visible/Infrared Imaging Spectrometer-Next Generation (AVIRIS-NG) data. The research aims to characterize minerals and rock types by...
- This $76,474 federal grant was awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of South Carolina (USC) to support research and capacity building related to water resources management in developing countries. The grant, which does not have a set-aside designation, is focused on two main components: 1) assessing the risk of inadequate water quantity and quality in the Ganga-Brahmaputra river basin in India using satellite data and hydrological modeling, and 2)...
- The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) awarded a $751,707 grant to the Regents of the University of Michigan to conduct research on how farmers in India are adapting their cropping practices in response to climate change and groundwater depletion. The research aims to understand the impacts of environmental change on agricultural production and identify effective adaptation strategies to ensure future food security. The grant, which does not utilize a set-aside, supports the...
- NASA awarded a $249,516 grant to The Aspen Global Change Institute, Inc. (AGCI) on December 10, 2024, for research related to space-based observations that advance water cycle science priorities over the next decade. The grant, issued under solicitation 24-TWSC24-0058, supports AGCI's core mission of facilitating interdisciplinary scientific collaboration on critical environmental and climate challenges. The work will be performed in Basalt, Colorado, with a completion deadline of December 9,...
- This is a $150,000.00 grant award from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the California Institute of Technology (Caltech) for the project "QUANTIFYING SEDIMENT CONCENTRATION IN CHANGING ARCTIC RIVERS USING NASA AVIRIS-NG IMAGING SPECTROSCOPY". The award is not set aside for any specific business category. Caltech, a private research university, will use this grant funding to conduct research related to quantifying sediment concentration in Arctic rivers...
- This is a $415,089.67 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of Arizona for a project titled "Interlinked Glacier Dynamics, Lakes, Mountain Hazards, and Critical Vulnerabilities in the Himalaya." The project aims to explore the links between mountain hazards, glaciers, permafrost, snowfields, glacial lakes, and unstable mountain slopes in High Mountain Asia, particularly Nepal, and examine potential downstream impacts of glacier lake...
- This is a $184,945 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of Wisconsin - Madison, operating as the University of Wisconsin System's Research and Sponsored Programs division. The grant supports the application of imaging spectroscopy algorithms developed by Singh et al. (2015) to map foliar traits in Indian forests, as part of the 2015-2016 joint NASA-ISRO AVIRIS-NG campaign. The project aims to test the transferability of these algorithms...
- This is a $1,029,004 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the Desert Research Institute (DRI), a research division of the Nevada System of Higher Education. The grant is part of NASA's "Operational Remote Sensing of Agricultural Water Use in Cooperation with Western State Water Resources" program and will support the development of an open-source platform called "Open-ET" to provide water management agencies and stakeholders with...
- This $100,000.00 grant was awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Shared Services Center to the Sonora Environmental Research Institute (SERI), a woman-owned non-profit organization, on July 27, 2022. The grant, which does not have a set-aside designation, is for a project titled "GPM, IMERG PRECIPITATION ESTIMATE IN AN ARID, ENVIRONMENTAL JUSTICE AREA OF TUCSON, ARIZONA, USA" and is scheduled to be completed by May 31, 2024. This grant is focused on...
- This is a $327,155.26 federal grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of Rhode Island (URI) Research Office Division, doing business as URI - Research. The grant aims to improve remote sensing capabilities for monitoring biogeochemical parameters in inland waters across North America using physics-based approaches. Key tasks include quality control and data compilation, development of optical property models, algorithm refinement and...
This is a $177,651 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the Space Science Institute, a nonprofit research organization based in Boulder, Colorado. The grant will fund a research project to use NASA's Airborne Visible/Infrared Imaging Spectrometer Next Generation (AVIRIS-NG) data to study the environmental and water quality impacts of the Ambaji and Zawar mines in the Indian states of Gujarat and Rajasthan. The objectives are to map minerals associated with acid generation and trace metal adsorption at the mine sites and in surrounding drainage basins, and to identify potential impacts on downstream water quality. This research supports NASA's Applied Sciences program focused on water resources. The grant does not have a set-aside designation, and no subcontractor information is provided.
