- The Trustees of Boston University received a $354,982.50 research grant from NASA's Shared Services Center, with an ultimate completion date of August 31, 2024. This grant supports research focused on large-scale and continuous patterns of forest carbon monitoring, which aligns with NASA's Carbon Monitoring Program and Terrestrial Ecology Program objectives. The project utilizes Light Detection and Ranging (LIDAR) remote sensing technology to capture vertical forest structure on a wall-to-wall...
- This federal contract award was granted by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the Trustees of Boston University, a private university located in Boston, Massachusetts. The $521,806.90 grant is intended to support research aimed at developing a synthetic, flexible, and extensible approach to monitoring, reporting, and verifying the terrestrial carbon cycle. This effort seeks to integrate data from a variety of remote sensing sources, including optical, lidar, and radar...
- This is a grant award from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to Trustees of Boston University, a private university in Boston, Massachusetts. The $87,379.26 grant is for a 3-year research project to quantify urban biogenic carbon dioxide (CO2) fluxes in the Los Angeles (LA) basin. The project aims to disentangle anthropogenic and biogenic contributions to urban carbon cycling and atmospheric CO2 enhancements by leveraging remote sensing data from NASA's Orbiting Carbon...

The grant is for a research project with three main objectives: (1) nowcasting and near-term forecasting, (2) disturbance assimilation, and (3) multisensor assimilation. The grant does not have a set-aside designation and has a period of performance ending on May 31, 2025. As a prominent research university, Boston...
- This is a $363,794 grant awarded by NASA's Shared Services Center to Trustees of Boston University, a private university located in Boston, Massachusetts. The grant, titled "TERRA S", is intended to address fundamental questions in Earth science as articulated in NASA's Science Mission Directorate 2014 science plan, under the overarching question "How and why are Earth's climate and environment changing?" The award has a period of performance ending on September 30, 2025, and...
- This is a $605,671 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the Trustees of Boston University, a private non-profit educational institution, for research on "EO14042 MODELING MARTIAN ATMOSPHERIC LOSSES OVER TIME". The grant, which does not have a set-aside designation, will support scientific research and analysis related to modeling the long-term changes in the Martian atmosphere. As a leading research university, Boston University has extensive...
- Trustees of Boston University was awarded a $1,047,509.46 grant from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to create an operational land surface phenology product. The goal is to combine imagery from the Landsat 8 and Sentinel 2 satellite missions to monitor and map land surface properties at an unprecedented level of spatial detail and temporal frequency. The product will provide data on the timing of vegetation phenophase transitions, as well as identify near real-time...
- This is a $861,006 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the Trustees of Boston University to study the export of terrigenous dissolved organic carbon (DOC) from boreal terrestrial ecosystems to the Arctic Ocean and its vulnerability to environmental change. The grant is for research and does not have a set-aside designation. Boston University has a history of receiving federal research contracts and grants from agencies such as the Department of Defense,...
- This federal contract award to Trustees of Boston University, a private non-profit educational institution, was granted by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to conduct research on the resilience of coastal marshes to climate change. The $962,075.00 grant-funded contract, which does not have a set-aside designation, will leverage remote sensing imagery and numerical models to quantify the impacts of climate change on coastal marsh ecosystems. As a leading research...
This is a $631,354.01 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to Trustees of Boston University, a private university in Boston, Massachusetts. The grant funds a research project to analyze land use changes and associated carbon dynamics in the country of Georgia, a former Soviet republic, over the past 30 years. The research will leverage satellite imagery, national census data, and collaboration with local partners to provide a comprehensive understanding of how Georgia's dramatic political, economic, and social changes have impacted its land use patterns and carbon cycle. The project aims to inform policy for more sustainable land management in Georgia and enhance the country's reporting capabilities under the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC). This grant does not have a set-aside designation.
