- This is a $346,592 grant award to The Trustees of Columbia University in the City of New York, operating as Columbia University through its Sponsored Projects Administration Division, to improve the calibration of the Earth Polychromatic Imaging Camera (EPIC) instrument on the Deep Space Climate Observatory (DSCOVR) satellite. The goal is to validate the absolute and relative radiometric calibration of EPIC's spectral channels by comparing its measurements to data from several other Earth and...
- The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) awarded a $347,511.49 grant to Trustees of Boston University, a private university, to conduct research on the Earth Polychromatic Imaging Camera (EPIC) onboard the Deep Space Climate Observatory (DSCOVR) satellite. The objectives are to develop a new methodology to generate "hot spot" signatures from EPIC and other satellite sensor observations that can be used to monitor changes and biophysical processes in tropical and...
- This is a $80,864.36 grant award from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Shared Services Center to Sciglob Instruments & Services LLC, a self-certified small disadvantaged, woman-owned small business. The grant is a continuation of previous work to maintain the calibration of the Deep Space Climate Observatory (DSCOVR) Earth Polychromatic Imaging Camera (EPIC). The grant will fund the continued maintenance of the EPIC dark count map and bad pixel list, evaluation of any...
- This is a $267,948 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to Michigan Technological University to continue development and maintenance of an algorithm for retrieving sulfur dioxide (SO2) data from the Earth Polychromatic Imaging Camera (EPIC) instrument on the Deep Space Climate Observatory (DSCOVR) satellite. The project aims to validate and analyze EPIC's SO2 and aerosol index data for volcanic eruptions, leveraging the instrument's high-cadence ultraviolet...
- This is a $430,641 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of Maryland, College Park (UMD) to continue the science team support for the Deep Space Climate Observatory (DSCOVR) mission. Under this award, UMD will maintain, improve, and validate the EPIC O3SO2AI product, which provides measurements of total column ozone, sulfur dioxide, scene reflectivity, and aerosol index. The team will apply soft calibration techniques to ensure the accuracy...
- The Trustees of Columbia University in the City of New York has been awarded a $362,626 grant by a federal civilian agency's Shared Services Center to support the first six years of operation of the Deep Space Climate Observatory (DSCOVR) Earth Polychromatic Imaging Camera (EPIC) at the Lagrange point. The award, issued on February 10, 2022, with a completion date of February 9, 2025, represents a non-set-aside contract awarded through open competition. Work will be performed at Columbia...
- This federal contract award to the University of California San Diego (UCSD) Scripps Institution of Oceanography, a division of UCSD, is for the development of a science-quality standard ocean surface photosynthetically available radiation (PAR) product from the DSCOVR EPIC satellite data. The $405,726 grant will fund the modification of the current NASA algorithm to EPIC data, quantification of theoretical performance, assignment of uncertainties, creation of a full EPIC PAR processing line,...
- This research grant of $452,502 was awarded to The University of Iowa on March 9, 2022, for work supporting NASA's Deep Space Climate Observatory (DSCOVR) mission and its Earth Polychromatic Imaging Camera (EPIC) instrument. EPIC observes the entire sunlit face of Earth across multiple wavelengths from the ultraviolet through the infrared spectrum, providing critical data for Earth science research. The work is performance at the University of Iowa's location in Iowa City, Iowa, with an ultimate...
- This is a $588,707 research grant awarded by NASA to Trustees of Boston University (BU) to refine and validate the Vegetation Earth System Data Record (VESDR) product derived from the DSCOVR EPIC sensor. The VESDR provides key vegetation parameters including Leaf Area Index, Normalized Difference Vegetation Index, and Fraction of Absorbed Photosynthetically Active Radiation. The primary objectives are to improve the VESDR retrieval technique, achieve "Stage-1 Validation" status through...
- This is a $466,621.00 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Shared Services Center to The Research Foundation for the State University of New York (RF-SUNY) at the University at Albany for scientific research.
