- The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) awarded a $250,191 grant to the Regents of the University of Michigan (doing business as the University of Michigan) for research related to the Orbiting Carbon Observatory (OCO) missions. The primary objectives of the OCO missions are to make global observations of carbon dioxide (CO2) in the atmosphere to improve understanding of the various processes controlling atmospheric CO2. This grant will focus on quantifying and attributing...
- The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) awarded a $1,111,327.94 grant to the Regents of the University of Michigan to study the mechanisms by which climate variability affects terrestrial carbon fluxes. The 4-year research project aims to leverage climate-carbon feedbacks evident in the atmospheric CO2 growth rate to better understand how large-scale climate oscillations influence regional climate and terrestrial carbon fluxes. The research will use a combination of climate...
- This is a $338,490 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the Regents of the University of Michigan's Office of Research and Sponsored Projects, doing business as the University of Michigan. The purpose of the grant is to support the Orbiting Carbon Observatory-2 (OCO-2) mission, which aims to make global observations of carbon dioxide (CO2) levels in order to improve understanding of the processes controlling emissions and uptake of carbon. The grant does...
- The Regents of the University of Michigan were awarded a $151,400.48 research grant from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to investigate the impact of seasonal changes in temperature and water availability on carbon uptake and atmospheric carbon dioxide concentrations across North America. The research will leverage a combination of ground-based, airborne, and satellite observations, including new solar-induced chlorophyll fluorescence measurements, to improve...
- This is a $504,908.00 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the Regents of the University of Michigan to conduct research on "Constraining Carbon Fluxes and Transport Patterns Using New Spatiotemporal Information in Remotely Sensed CO2". The grant is part of NASA's efforts to better understand and model carbon dioxide (CO2) fluxes and transport using satellite data. The University of Michigan, a prominent research institution, will leverage its...
- The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) awarded a $279,279.73 grant to Rector & Visitors Of The University Of Virginia, doing business as the University of Virginia, to conduct research on analyzing variations in atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO2) observed by the Orbiting Carbon Observatory-2 (OCO-2) satellite. The research aims to characterize the magnitude and spatial patterns of CO2 variability, attribute the observed anomalies to terrestrial, oceanic, and human-mediated...
- This is a $177,770.54 federal grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to Atmospheric & Environmental Research Inc., a for-profit corporation that provides weather and climate research services to the government. The grant supports the validation and application of data from NASA's Orbiting Carbon Observatory-2 (OCO-2) satellite in the northeastern United States. The key objectives are to: 1) assess OCO-2's ability to accurately measure regional-scale...
- The Regents of the University of Michigan has been awarded a $55,707 grant by a civilian federal agency through its Shared Services Center to conduct research on reducing satellite-measured XCO2 (carbon dioxide column concentration) biases through optimization of aerosol schemes in physics-based retrievals. The work will be performed at the University of Michigan's Ann Arbor campus through June 30, 2027, with an award date of July 1, 2024. This grant represents a non-set-aside research award...
- This federal contract award, with ID 80NSSC17K0382, was issued by the Shared Services Center, a civilian agency, to the Regents of the University of Michigan. The $77,872.84 contract is a training grant that supports research to understand the processes governing the flow of carbon among the ocean, atmosphere, and biosphere. This research will utilize observations from the Total Carbon Column Observing Network (TCCON) and NASA's Orbiting Carbon Observatory-2 (OCO-2) satellite to infer...
- This is a $568,011.92 grant awarded to The Johns Hopkins University by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Shared Services Center on July 19, 2018. The grant supports research on interannual variability in the global carbon cycle, using data from NASA's Orbiting Carbon Observatory-2 (OCO-2) and the Greenhouse Gases Observing Satellite (GOSAT). The research aims to estimate multiple years of global terrestrial and marine CO2 fluxes, diagnose and quantify the effects of...
The U.S. National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) awarded a $354,129.83 grant to the Regents of the University of Michigan (doing business as the University of Michigan) to conduct research on the variability of atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO2) levels measured by the Orbiting Carbon Observatory-2 (OCO-2) satellite. The research aims to characterize the spatial and temporal patterns of CO2 mole fraction (XCO2) variations, attribute these anomalies to land, ocean, and human-caused flux changes, and compare the results to other observational data and models. This work will provide insight into the drivers of year-to-year changes in the global carbon cycle, particularly around the 2015/2016 El Niño event. The grant does not have a set-aside designation.
