- This is a $489,272.00 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the Regents of the University of Michigan (University of Michigan) to conduct detailed dynamical and photochemical studies of the Venus middle atmosphere (approximately 70-110 km). The objective is to obtain a self-consistent understanding of the photochemistry, dynamics, heating, and microphysics of the Venus middle atmosphere using existing validated models and updated photochemical schemes....
- The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) awarded a $892,949 grant to the Regents of the University of Michigan to study the impact of solar flares and solar extreme ultraviolet radiation on the upper atmospheres of Mars and Venus. The research will utilize a global ionosphere thermosphere model to quantify the role of traveling atmospheric disturbances in shaping the upper atmospheres of these planets, and will involve data-model comparisons using observations from various Mars...
- The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) awarded a $431,596.55 grant to The Regents of the University of California, doing business as the University of California, Berkeley (UC Berkeley), to conduct research on the interaction between the solar wind and the atmosphere of Venus. The research aims to simulate this interaction with high fidelity in order to better understand features such as the super-rotation of Venus' upper atmosphere and plasma phenomena like the plasma tail...
- This is a one-year grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the Regents of the University of California, Berkeley, in the amount of $100,992.24. The grant is for a pilot study to investigate the mass, momentum, and energy transfer between the solar wind and the Venusian upper atmosphere due to the solar wind interaction. The research aims to characterize the energy, momentum, and mass exchange between the solar wind and the Venusian neutral plasma...
- This is a $479,712.43 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the Regents of the University of Colorado, doing business as the University of Colorado Office of Contracts and Grants Division. The grant is for a three-year research project to study the mechanisms of hydrogen loss from the atmospheres of Venus and Mars, with the goal of improving understanding of how water has been depleted from these planets over solar system history. The research will couple...
- The Regents of the University of Michigan was awarded a $105,000 Cooperative Agreement by a civilian federal agency on June 8, 2022, to support the DAVINCI+ (Deep Atmosphere Venus Investigation of Noble Gases Chemistry, and Imaging Plus) mission. The performance location is in Ann Arbor, Michigan, with an ultimate completion date of March 31, 2026. This cooperative agreement was awarded without set-aside designation and represents the university's contribution to this planetary science...
- This is a $1,010,737.00 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of Wisconsin - Madison, a division of the University of Wisconsin System, to conduct research on the weather of Venus. The investigation will utilize the Akatsuki (Venus Climate Orbiter) satellite to observe the planet's atmosphere and understand the superrotation phenomenon. Key areas of study include atmospheric motions, heat and momentum transport, and energy conversions. This...
- This federal contract award from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) supports research on the response of the Venus ionosphere and induced magnetosphere to variations in solar wind conditions. The $358,447.71 grant, awarded on August 1, 2015, aims to leverage a sophisticated MHD model to study how the Venus plasma environment reacts to changes in solar wind pressure and interplanetary magnetic field direction. The study...
- This is a $511,809 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the Regents of the University of Michigan to conduct research on electron scattering processes and their impact on the upper atmosphere of Mars. The grant is part of NASA's "Assessing Superthermal Electron Kinetic Processes in Near-Mars Space" program. The research will utilize three numerical models to address three key scientific questions related to photoelectron and solar wind electron...
- This federal grant award to the University of Colorado (CU) from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) is focused on advancing the understanding of cloud dynamics and radiative balance in the Venus atmosphere. The $207,351.91 grant will support a series of microphysical cloud simulations using the Community Aerosol and Radiation Model for Atmospheres (CARMA) to characterize the properties of Venus' clouds and their potential impact on the planet's atmospheric super-rotation...
