- This is a grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University Corporation for Atmospheric Research (UCAR), also known as the National Center for Atmospheric Research (NCAR). The grant, valued at $846,133.00, is for UCAR/NCAR to perform magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) simulations of coronal mass ejections (CMEs) in the solar corona. The goal is to understand the build-up and eruption of CMEs, and how their properties like acceleration, speed, and direction can be...
- This is a $152,488 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University Corporation for Atmospheric Research (UCAR), a non-profit consortium that manages the National Center for Atmospheric Research (NCAR). The grant is for research on the "Impact of Eclipse on the Magnetosphere Through Magnetosphere-Ionosphere-Thermosphere Coupling." This work will be conducted at NCAR facilities in Boulder, Colorado. The grant does not have a set-aside...
- This is a $143,551.05 federal grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the Space Science Institute, a nonprofit research organization based in Boulder, Colorado. The goal of the project is to develop an adaptive hybrid computational model that combines kinetic ion and fluid electron descriptions to enable more detailed simulations of turbulent solar wind conditions and their impacts on the Earth's magnetosphere. The model will be integrated with global...
- This is a $859,336.32 research grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University Corporation for Atmospheric Research (UCAR), a nonprofit consortium managing the National Center for Atmospheric Research (NCAR). The grant is focused on improving the representation of cloud processes in Earth system models used for both weather and climate prediction. The goal is to develop a unified treatment of cloud microphysics that can integrate with different...
- The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) awarded a $214,177.33 grant to the University of Alabama in Huntsville (UAH) to improve the quality of heliospheric simulations and space weather forecasting capabilities. The project will build upon the existing Wang-Sheeley-Arge (WSA)-ENLIL model used by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) for operational forecasts of solar wind and coronal mass ejection (CME) propagation. UAH will utilize its Multi-Scale...
- The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) awarded a $599,572.13 grant to the Regents of the University of Michigan, Office of Research and Sponsored Projects, to conduct research on the physical processes that lead to large-scale solar eruptions, including flares and coronal mass ejections (CMEs). The research aims to understand how magnetic energy and helicity are transported from the solar convection zone to the corona, the mechanisms that trigger CMEs, the relationship...
- This $690,892.74 grant was awarded by NASA to the University Corporation for Atmospheric Research (UCAR) to conduct an observational and modeling investigation of thermospheric density anomaly. The primary goal is to elucidate the causal relationship between high-latitude energy input and the formation of thermospheric neutral mass density anomaly through detailed model-data intercomparison. The research will leverage data from current and past NASA missions as well as other space and...
- This is a $947,848.00 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University Corporation for Atmospheric Research (UCAR), a non-profit organization that manages the National Center for Atmospheric Research (NCAR). The grant supports research that is highly supportive of NASA's Living With a Star (LWS) program, which aims to provide an understanding of the solar-climate system with realistic Earth's internal forcing. The research will be conducted at UCAR's...
- This is a $686,023 grant award from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University Corporation for Atmospheric Research (UCAR), a nonprofit consortium of over 115 universities. The grant is for a research project to study the effects of the "By" component of the interplanetary magnetic field on the Earth's thermosphere and ionosphere. The project will use numerical simulations and data from the TIMED GUVI satellite to understand how thermospheric composition...
- This is a $436,834.68 federal grant award from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University Corporation for Atmospheric Research (UCAR), a non-profit consortium of over 115 universities that manages the National Center for Atmospheric Research (NCAR). The purpose of the grant is to constrain the lower limits of solar irradiance and create a grand minimum scenario based on a well-characterized photospheric magnetic field distribution using a small-scale dynamo...
