This is a $92,578.61 grant award from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to Texas A&M University to conduct research on water vapor concentration, cloud abundance, and their impact on the Earth's climate and stratospheric chemistry. The research aims to use measurements from various satellite instruments, including SAGE II/III, CALIOP, OMPS-LP, and Aura MLS, as well as transport and microphysical modeling, to better understand the processes controlling clouds and...
This is a $2,595,534.00 grant award from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to Texas A&M University to conduct a field measurement campaign using the NASA ER-2 high-altitude research aircraft. The research will investigate the dynamics and chemistry of the summer stratosphere over central North America, combining in-situ aircraft observations with satellite, radar, and model data to understand the role of convection in the composition and dynamics of the lower...
This is a $109,452.95 grant awarded by the Shared Services Center of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University Corporation for Atmospheric Research (UCAR), doing business as the National Center for Atmospheric Research (NCAR). The grant is for research to better understand the processes controlling the variability of enhanced water vapor in the upper troposphere/lower stratosphere (UTLS) region over the North American Monsoon region, which is observed by the Aura...
This is a $322,171 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University Corporation for Atmospheric Research (UCAR), a nonprofit consortium that manages the National Center for Atmospheric Research (NCAR). The grant is for a research project titled "GLOBAL IMPACT OF CONVECTION ON UTLS CLOUDS, COMPOSITION, AND DYNAMICS BASED ON NASA SATELLITE AND AIRBORNE MEASUREMENTS". The project will investigate the global impact of convection on upper...
This is a $339,193.00 federal grant awarded to Texas A&M University by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) for a research project titled "CONSTRAINING CLOUD FEEDBACK RESPONSES ASSOCIATED WITH PRECIPITATING CLOUD DISTRIBUTION SHIFTS UNDER CHANGING TROPICAL ASCENT AREA". The grant is for a period of performance ending on October 16, 2025 and does not have a set-aside designation. Texas A&M University, a public land-grant research university, is the prime...
This is a $100,815.45 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Shared Services Center to Texas A&M University. The grant supports three key activities: Refinement of NASA's Level-2 cloud mask, cloud-top property, and cloud optical property datasets from the MODIS sensors on the Terra and Aqua satellites. This includes completing ongoing refinement work and developing a new infrared optimal estimation algorithm to replace the current CO2-slicing heritage...
This federal contract award, valued at $303,312.99, was granted by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to Texas A&M University, a public land-grant research institution in College Station, Texas. The award supports a research project that aims to investigate the relationship between precipitation, cloud cover, and large-scale climate patterns. Specifically, the research will leverage data from the Tropical Rainfall Measuring Mission (TRMM) satellite to study how...
