- This is a grant award from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution (WHOI), a private non-profit research organization, with a ceiling value of $566,924.08. The award is for a research project investigating physical, biological, and geochemical processes that control the transfer of carbon from the ocean surface to the deep ocean via the biological pump. The project will use a coupled physical-biogeochemical model and existing...
- This is a $697,110.97 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution (WHOI) for a research project titled "Particulate Organic Matter (POM) in the Upper Ocean." The project aims to characterize the vertical transport of POM and assess the ability of various observing system configurations to measure these fluxes. The research will use a submesoscale-resolving ocean model and observational datasets from field...
- This is a research grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the Virginia Institute of Marine Science (VIMS) to study mesozooplankton-mediated export of net primary production in the Northeast Pacific and North Atlantic Oceans. The research aims to address key science questions from the EXPORTS (Export Processes in the Ocean from Remote Sensing) program, which is focused on using satellite remote sensing data to predict the export and fate of net primary...
- This is a $547,183.47 grant from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of California, Santa Barbara (UCSB) for a research project titled "Sinking Particulate Organic Matter is a Major Route of Carbon Export from the Sunlit Surface Ocean to the Ocean's Interior." The project aims to develop a mechanistic link between microbial attenuation of sinking particle flux and surface ocean properties, with the goal of creating a predictive understanding of...
- This is a $1,619,471.00 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution (WHOI), a private non-profit research organization, for a project titled "ADVANCING REMOTE SENSING INSIGHT INTO COASTAL SEA ICE ECOSYSTEMS". The grant, which has no set-aside designation, supports WHOI's research on using remote sensing techniques to study coastal sea ice ecosystems. The project has an ultimate completion date of June 30, 2025....
- This is a $106,899.62 grant for research awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Shared Services Center to the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution, a private non-profit research organization. The grant is for the Planetary Boundary Layer Mission and covers the contractor's expertise in satellite retrievals, satellite data products, modeling, and in-situ data analysis. No set-aside designation was used for this award. The work will be performed in Woods Hole,...
- This federal contract award was granted by NASA to the University of California, Santa Barbara (UCSB) to conduct a pilot study for the EXPORTS field campaign. The goal of EXPORTS is to gain a predictive understanding of the export and fate of global ocean net primary production. Under this $762,291 grant, UCSB will collect and collate available global ocean ecosystem and carbon cycling field observations, construct EXPORTS data products and diagrams, and evaluate the use of the mined data for...
- This is a $135,000.00 grant award from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution (WHOI), a private, non-profit research organization. The grant is for a project that uses NASA's scatterometer wind and ocean color datasets, in-situ observations, and numerical models to improve predictions of primary productivity in coastal upwelling regions by considering the source depth of upwelled water. The award has a period of performance ending...
- This is a $1,478,914.00 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution, a private non-profit research organization, to study how Antarctic marine predator populations will respond to climate variability and change. The grant aims to quantify the dependence of ecosystems on environmental conditions to enable future prediction. This research supports NASA's climate science and environmental monitoring programs. The grant does...
- This is a $1,735,280.50 grant award to Oregon State University, a public research university located in Corvallis, Oregon, by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Shared Services Center. The grant supports a 3-year research project focused on understanding how upper ocean ecosystem characteristics determine the vertical transfer of organic matter from the surface ocean. The project will evaluate how plankton community properties govern organic matter export, and contribute to...
This is a grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Shared Services Center to the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution, a private non-profit research organization. The $1,429,983.00 grant is for the Exports Processes in the Ocean from Remote Sensing (EXPORTS) program, which aims to develop a predictive mechanistic understanding of the export and fate of fixed carbon from global ocean primary production. The project will involve large-scale field campaigns using remote sensing, autonomous platforms, and process-level studies to quantify the spatio-temporal variability in particle flux and its attenuation with depth. This work is intended to reduce uncertainties in carbon export and develop improved models for future carbon export predictions. The grant does not have a set-aside designation.
