- 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...
- 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 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...
- The Virginia Institute of Marine Science (VIMS), affiliated with the College of William & Mary and located in Gloucester Point, Virginia, received a $130,452 research grant award from a civilian federal agency's Shared Services Center on August 27, 2025. The grant, which extends through August 26, 2028, directs VIMS to execute a balanced science program grounded in discipline-specific guidance from the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine, in alignment with...
- This federal contract award is a $797,491 grant provided by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the Bigelow Laboratory for Ocean Sciences, a non-profit marine research organization located in East Boothbay, Maine. The grant supports research on the impacts of changing circulation patterns in the subarctic Atlantic region on net primary production, using a combination of modeling and historical data analysis. The research aligns with the NASA-sponsored EXPORTS (East...
- 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 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 $536,050.79 grant award to the University of Rhode Island (URI) Research Office Division, doing business as URI - Research, from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA). The grant is for a research project titled "North Atlantic Plankton Population Dynamics: Quantifying the Predictive Values of Temperatures, Light and Hyperspectral Ocean Color Data." The research aims to measure plankton population dynamics, growth rates, and predator-induced mortality...
- This federal contract award to the University of Washington (UW) is for a research project focused on measuring upper ocean community structure, sinking cells, aggregates and fecal pellets, physical export, and migrating zooplankton. The $3,274,262 grant from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Shared Services Center will implement a multi-platform, multi-scale, multi-month autonomous array at two export sites. The goal is to complement ship-based programs by providing a...
- 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...
