The grant has a ceiling value of $276,829.97 and a completion date of April 8, 2024. ESR, which...
- The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) awarded a $709,579.45 grant to the University of Miami's Rosenstiel School of Marine and Atmospheric Science division to continue assessing the accuracy of sea-surface temperature (SST) measurements from the Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) instrument on the Terra satellite. The research aims to improve weather forecasting and climate modeling by ensuring the integrity of the long-term SST data record. No new fieldwork...
- This federal contract award, with ID NNX15AQ60G, was granted by the Shared Services Center of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to Earth And Space Research (ESR), a nonprofit research institute specializing in oceanographic research. The $253,533.00 grant supports a research project with three main objectives: 1) evaluating existing resources for estimating mixed-layer properties, 2) examining the impact of simulated satellite mixed-layer observations on ocean state...
This contract award to Earth And Space Research (ESR), a nonprofit research institute, is a $819,715.92 grant from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to continue the Multi-Sensor Improved Sea-Surface Temperature (MISST) for Integrated Ocean Observing System (IOOS) project that was previously funded from 2011-2017. The project aims to (i) improve data distribution and international partnerships, (ii) incorporate new satellite data and algorithms for sea surface temperature (SST) analysis, and (iii) focus on improving the accuracy of satellite-derived SSTs in the Arctic. ESR has received multiple prime and subcontract awards from NASA and other agencies for research on topics such as ocean currents, salinity, ice sheet mass loss, and climate change. This contract does not have a set-aside designation and was awarded on April 25, 2018 with a completion date of January 31, 2020.
