- This is a grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to Portland State University (PSU) to support research on capillary flows in reduced gravity environments. The $92,898.33 grant will fund the completion of the Capillary Flow Experiments 2 (CFE-2) vane gap experiments conducted on the International Space Station, including data/video archiving, data reduction, reporting, and publication preparation. This research aims to provide a quantitative and fundamental...
- This is a grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Shared Services Center to Portland State University (PSU) to conduct applied science and engineering research on advanced life support systems for space exploration. The $387,364.70 grant is for developing solutions to NASA's needs in areas such as passive biofluids management, water delivery and management for plants in space, and crowd-sourcing plant root water delivery methods. The research will involve...
- This federal contract award to Portland State University (PSU) from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) is for a research grant focused on understanding the fundamental aspects of demisting, or the removal of liquid droplets from gas streams, in a microgravity environment. The $297,409.40 grant aims to investigate phenomena such as droplet impact and capture, filter saturation, and overall system performance, with testing to be conducted at the Dryden Drop Tower at PSU....
- This is a $207,458.11 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Shared Services Center to Portland State University (PSU), a public research university in Oregon. The grant supports continued research on ocean surface tides and internal tides using satellite altimeter data, numerical modeling, and data assimilation. Key objectives include producing highly accurate global tidal atlases, investigating the stationarity of low-mode internal tides, and improving...
- Portland State University received a $339,573.69 research grant from a civilian federal agency (via the Shared Services Center) with an ultimate completion date of December 31, 2024. The award, made on February 27, 2019, supports a scientific research project investigating the formation and thermal history of chondrites—meteoritic rocks that are critical to understanding early solar system processes. The project comprises three primary research objectives: testing whether hot chondrules accreted...
- This federal grant award, valued at $97,020.16, was issued by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of Houston System to support research on gas-liquid two-phase flows through packed beds in microgravity. The work is in support of the Packed Bed Reactor Experiment (PBRE) currently underway aboard the International Space Station (ISS). The goals of the project include analyzing data from the ISS experiments, validating and updating models for predicting...
- Portland State University was awarded a $298,737 research grant by NASA's Shared Services Center on July 19, 2023, to conduct flow-dependent optimization of observation performance in NASA's GEOS Hybrid 4D-ENVAR ADAS (Advanced Data Assimilation System). The project, which is scheduled for completion on July 18, 2026, represents a non-set-aside grant focused on advancing data assimilation methodologies critical to Earth observation and weather prediction capabilities. This research aligns with...
- The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) awarded a $150,000.00 grant to the University of Houston System, a state-controlled institution of higher education, to conduct research on gas-liquid two-phase flows through packed beds in microgravity. This research supports the Packed Bed Reactor Experiment (PBRE) recently conducted aboard the International Space Station (ISS). The key objectives are to analyze data from the ISS experiments, validate and update models for predicting...
- This is a $242,742.04 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Shared Services Center to Portland State University, a U.S. state government and public educational institution, for research related to the potential role of atmospheric aerosols in the origin of life. The grant does not have a set-aside designation. The award builds on the work of Carl Woese, who in 1979 proposed a greater role for atmospheric aerosols in the transition from prebiotic to...
- This is a $302,078.02 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to Portland State University (PSU) to develop a "robust indicator of extreme precipitation over the Continental United States" based on data from NASA's Tropical Rainfall Measurement Mission (TRMM) and Global Precipitation Measurement (GPM) programs. The indicator will categorize extreme precipitation events similar to the Saffir-Simpson hurricane scale, allowing tracking of trends in...
