- The Regents of the University of Colorado received a research grant valued at $622,615 from a civilian federal agency with an ultimate completion date of December 31, 2026. This grant supports a multidisciplinary research initiative examining Earth's energy imbalance and its relationship to regional sea level rise. The project leverages satellite observations from NASA's Terra and Aqua satellites, combined with complementary reanalysis data (MERRA-2 and ECCOV4) and satellite altimetry to...
- This is a $91,027.48 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of Colorado for research on Antarctic ice heights and changes over time. The project will create a digital elevation model (DEM) database from satellite imagery collected between 2009 and 2016, co-register the satellite DEMs to airborne laser altimetry data, and use deep learning to co-register historical aerial photography to the satellite imagery and DEMs. The goal is to produce...
- This is a federal grant award from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to Portland State University to contribute to the NASA Sea-Level Change Team (N-SLCT) through an interdisciplinary investigation addressing current and future sea level rise. The $101,752.21 grant integrates three existing NASA-funded efforts within the university group: multi-mission satellite altimetry, satellite gravimetry, and the Goddard Earth Observing System (GEOS-5) modeling system. The objectives...
- This is a grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Shared Services Center to the University of California, Irvine (UC Irvine) for $1,774,769.92. The grant is for research to develop new probabilistic, global and local sea-level projections that link physical models with observations of sea level and ice sheet changes. The goal is to reduce uncertainty in predicting future sea-level rise by extending ice sheet models with new glaciological processes, coupling with...
- This is a $140,000.00 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of Colorado, a state-supported institution of higher education, to integrate global remote sensing and modeling systems for local flood prediction and impact assessment. The award, which has no set-aside designation, will run through January 18, 2024. As a public research university, the University of Colorado has a long history of providing NASA, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric...
- The University of Colorado, Boulder, received a $858,863.99 grant from NASA to create an integrated time series of altimetry-based elevation models using data from various satellite and airborne altimetry instruments, including ICESat-2. The goal is to improve understanding of mass balance, surface melting, and energy fluxes in the climate system, particularly for the Greenland and Antarctic ice sheets. The research directly supports NASA's Earth Science Research Opportunities in Space and Earth...
- This is a $985,672.09 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of Colorado, a research-focused public institution, for a study on the interactions between extreme precipitation, wildfires, earthquakes, and mass movements that can lead to cascading hazards and large-scale disasters. The research will leverage multiple NASA remote sensing data sets in conjunction with in-situ observations and advanced hydrologic and fluvial modeling to improve...
- This is a $100,803.88 grant award from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of Colorado, an accredited public research university, to conduct research on monitoring and measuring changes in the mass balance of the Greenland and Antarctic ice sheets. The research aims to improve predictive models for sea level rise by analyzing surface mass balance and firn structure data collected during NASA's Operation IceBridge airborne survey missions. The grant supports...
- This federal grant was awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of Colorado, a U.S. state government entity and institution of higher learning, to map the surface mass balance (SMB) of the Antarctic ice sheet at high resolution using a combination of satellite altimetry data and atmospheric reanalysis. The goal is to better understand the dynamics and contribution of ice sheet elevation changes to sea level rise. The $616,158.82 grant does not have...
- The Regents of the University of Colorado received a $758,242 research grant award from a civilian federal agency for "Advanced Understanding of 21st Century Ocean Change Using CMIP6/AR6 Models and NASA Observations." Under this grant, which extends through February 28, 2027, the university will conduct research leveraging NASA satellite observations and climate models to understand externally forced ocean changes projected for the 21st century. The work focuses on separating...
