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 $232,620 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Shared Services Center to the University Corporation for Atmospheric Research (UCAR) on December 1, 2019. The objective is to conduct a comprehensive study of storm-time behavior of mid-latitude and equatorial ionospheric electrodynamics and its interaction with the thermosphere. This will involve analyzing data from multiple satellites and ground-based measurements, as well as running physics-based...
This is a $89,892.58 grant award from NASA to the University Corporation for Atmospheric Research (UCAR), which manages the National Center for Atmospheric Research (NCAR). The grant is for a NASA-led project to advance the physical understanding of the ionosphere-thermosphere-mesosphere (ITM) region through a combination of ground-based and satellite observations, sounding rockets, and improvements to models. The goal is to provide better specification of mesospheric circulation, enhanced...
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 $829,200 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University Corporation for Atmospheric Research (UCAR) to study the variability of the global ionospheric electric field and its impact on the mid-, low-, and equatorial latitude ionosphere. The research will utilize the Whole Atmosphere Community Climate Model with Thermosphere and Ionosphere Extension (WACCM-X) to investigate how lower atmosphere tides/waves, magnetospheric inputs, and...
This is a $374,925 grant award from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University Corporation for Atmospheric Research (UCAR) for a study on the penetration and disturbance of the electric field using data from the Ionosphere-Thermosphere-Mesosphere (ICON) satellite and coupled magnetosphere-thermosphere-ionosphere model simulations. UCAR manages the National Center for Atmospheric Research (NCAR) and will perform the work at its facilities in Boulder, Colorado....
This is a $395,773.83 grant awarded by NASA to The Regents of the University of Colorado, doing business as the University of Colorado Office of Contracts and Grants Division, a public research university. The purpose of the grant is to characterize changes in the neutral atmosphere during geomagnetic storms in order to improve the modeling of ion-neutral interactions in the topside ionosphere. This research supports NASA's Living With a Star (LWS) program goals of developing the scientific...
This is a $936,609.00 federal grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Shared Services Center to the University Corporation for Atmospheric Research (UCAR) to conduct research on ionospheric outflow and its impact on global magnetosphere dynamics. UCAR manages the National Center for Atmospheric Research (NCAR) and will leverage its expertise and facilities in Earth system science to perform this work. The grant does not have a set-aside designation. UCAR...
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).
