- The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) awarded a $168,472.72 grant to Earth And Space Research (ESR), a nonprofit research institute, for the Soil Moisture Active Passive (SMAP) and Aquarius missions, which provide valuable observations of sea surface salinity (SSS). The grant is for research and was awarded on July 24, 2018, with a completion date of January 31, 2019. ESR has been awarded multiple prime contracts and subcontracts by NASA and the National Science Foundation for...
- This is a $585,760 grant award from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to Earth And Space Research (ESR), a nonprofit oceanographic research institute. The grant funds a project to investigate processes controlling sea surface salinity (SSS) patterns and variability, evaluate the sensitivity of salinity budgets to data sources and resolution, and analyze the dynamical impacts of upper ocean salinity on air-sea interactions relevant to climate phenomena. The project...
- This is a $556,146 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to Earth and Space Research (ESR), a nonprofit oceanographic research institute. The three-year study aims to improve the existing sea surface salinity (SSS) satellite data validation framework beyond the previous Aquarius mission, in order to support NASA's ongoing ocean salinity science program. The grant will enable ESR to enhance the Aquarius Validation Data System (AVDS) to a more versatile Salinity...
- This $442,503.36 grant award to Earth And Space Research (ESR), a nonprofit oceanographic research institute, was made by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to study near-surface salinity stratification. The research aims to investigate the processes controlling the generation and evolution of freshwater lenses in the Intertropical Convergence Zone, which create discrepancies between satellite-derived sea surface salinity data and in-situ measurements. ESR will combine...
- This federal contract award is a $128,422 grant from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to Earth and Space Research (ESR), a non-profit research institute. The goal of this 1-year study is to extend and improve the continuity of sea surface salinity (SSS) satellite data from the previous NASA Aquarius mission to the ongoing NASA Soil Moisture Active Passive (SMAP) mission. ESR, which has extensive experience with the Aquarius data, will validate the satellite SSS variations...
- Earth And Space Research (ESR), a nonprofit oceanographic research institute, received a $578,752 research grant from NASA's Shared Services Center (award E014042/21-OSST21-0019) to investigate the variability of Northern North Atlantic sea surface salinity and the role of Arctic freshwater transport. The project, which commenced on May 5, 2022, will extend through May 4, 2026, and will be conducted at ESR's Seattle, Washington facility. This award is not designated as a set-aside contract and...
- The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) awarded a $111,578.00 grant to the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution, a private non-profit research organization, to host a 5-day workshop on global ocean salinity and the water cycle. The workshop builds upon prior salinity-focused meetings and aims to further ocean salinity science. Key motivations include the completion of the Aquarius salinity satellite mission, ongoing Salinity Processes Upper-ocean Regional Studies (SPURS) field...
- This is a grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the Cambridge Climate Institute, Inc., a non-profit organization, for research related to the ocean water cycle and surface salinity. The grant, valued at $135,619.05, will investigate the relationship between the ocean water cycle and surface salinity, and provide expertise towards improving the estimates of freshwater fluxes using salinity measurements, including those from NASA's Aquarius satellite mission....
- This is a grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of Hawaii at Manoa to build a consistent, long-term sea surface salinity (SSS) data record from multiple satellite measurements. The project aims to provide a comprehensive error analysis, produce a consistent SSS data record, and investigate scientific questions related to freshwater fluxes and variability in the Maritime Continent and the Eastern Tropical Pacific. The potential value of this...
- Earth and Space Research (ESR), a nonprofit oceanographic research institute, was awarded a $743,946 research grant by NASA's Shared Services Center on May 9, 2023, to conduct a three-year study on nonlinear surface and local dynamics in wind-driven ocean current systems (OSCAR currents) using three decades of observational data. The research will be performed at ESR's Seattle, Washington facility and is scheduled for completion by May 8, 2027. This grant award carries no set-aside designation...
