- This federal contract award to the University of Washington is for research related to the Global Precipitation Measurement (GPM) satellite mission. The $289,238 grant will prepare for and support field research over the Olympic Peninsula and Mountains in the Pacific Northwest to validate the GPM satellite's ability to measure precipitation over complex terrain. This work will include installing surface instrumentation, assisting with radar operations, providing weather forecasting support,...
- This federal contract award to the University of Washington (UW) is for research to advance the physical understanding of Earth's precipitation processes. The work will leverage data from NASA's Tropical Rainfall Measuring Mission (TRMM) and Global Precipitation Measurement (GPM) satellites, as well as ground validation data, to study convective systems, frontal systems, and tropical cyclones. The research aims to improve algorithms for TRMM and lay the groundwork for advanced numerical modeling...
- This federal grant award to the University of Washington (UW) supports research to improve the measurement and modeling of mountain snow, which is critical for understanding water supplies and ecosystems. The $1,174,641 grant is funded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Shared Services Center and has an ultimate completion date of August 31, 2025. The grant does not have a set-aside designation, reflecting UW's status as a large educational institution. As a leading...
- This is a $3,942,381.00 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of Washington (UW) to test the hypothesis that submesoscale ocean dynamics contribute to vertical exchange of climate and biological variables in the upper ocean. The grant has a period of performance from July 1, 2019 to June 1, 2026. UW is the prime contractor and there is no set-aside designation. This award is part of UW's broader federal contracting and grant-receiving...
- This is a grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Shared Services Center to the University of Washington (UW) to conduct research on improving the accuracy of satellite-based precipitation measurements over the ocean. The research will involve using data from 64 acoustic rain sensors and 11 surface rain gauges mounted on ocean buoys to test methods for downscaling NASA's Integrated Multi-satellitE Retrievals for GPM (IMERG) precipitation product to better...
- This federal award is a grant to the University of Washington from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Shared Services Center, with a potential value of $101,747. The grant is for research to analyze data collected during the Olympic Mountains Experiment (OLYMPEX) field campaign, which was conducted to validate measurements from the Global Precipitation Measurement (GPM) satellite mission. The research will focus on three key areas: (1) quality control and processing of...
