- This is a $134,649.18 training grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration Shared Services Center to the University of Washington on September 1, 2018, with a completion date of August 31, 2021. The grant funds research to investigate the extent, resolution, and accuracy of remotely-sensed snow depth observations in complex topography, as precipitation measurements in mountainous regions are challenging. The research will evaluate the ability of simulated snow depth...
- This is a federal grant award from a civilian agency to the University of Washington (UW) for $133,576.46 to conduct research on improving cloud-snow discrimination and understanding the snow energy balance in mountains using satellite data. The results will be important for guiding future satellite mission design and will be communicated to the NASA International Snow Working Group. UW is the prime contractor and there is no set-aside designation. UW is a prominent public research university...
- This federal contract award (No. 80NSSC20K1627) was granted by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Shared Services Center to the University of Washington (UW) to conduct research on the Antarctic ice sheet. The $76,472.19 grant aims to use altimetric and surface velocity data to perform time-dependent inversions for basal friction and rheological parameters that govern ice flow. This award does not have a set-aside designation. The University of Washington is a leading...
- This is a $54,501.00 grant award to the University of Washington from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Shared Services Center for research on "The Seasonal Cycle of Arctic Snow Depth from ICESat-2: Linkages to Summer Freeboard and Albedo." The award supports analysis of critical data from comet Wild 2 silicates to advance understanding of comet formation environments. The University of Washington is the prime recipient, with no set-aside designation, and there...
- The University of Washington was awarded a $369,788 grant from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration Shared Services Center. The objectives of the grant include building upon current knowledge of glacial cirque environments on Earth and evaluating terrestrial remote sensing analyses against targeted field studies to better understand processes driving glacier formation. No set-aside designation was used for this award. Work will be performed in Seattle, Washington through March 2025....
- The University of Washington was awarded a $450,000 grant by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration Shared Services Center. The grant is for cryospheric studies to improve estimates of sea ice trends and variability over the last two decades through data assimilation, and to investigate the mechanisms explaining the observed trends and variability. No set-aside designation was used. The period of performance is from March 15, 2021 through March 14, 2025. The award was made directly...
- The University of Washington (UW) was awarded a $135,000.00 federal grant from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Shared Services Center to conduct research on using high-resolution satellite observations to understand glacier mass balance and dynamics in High-Mountain Asia. This grant, with a period of performance through December 31, 2022, is not set aside for small businesses. UW is a leading research university and has extensive experience supporting federal agencies...
- This federal contract award, valued at $471,492.77, was granted by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of Washington (UW) to support research and in situ observations of surface meteorology and sea ice motion. These observations are used to improve numerical weather prediction models for forecasting weather and sea ice conditions. The award is a grant for research with a completion date of May 27, 2024. UW is a prominent research institution that frequently...
- This is a $135,000.00 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Shared Services Center to the University of Washington (UW) for research on air-sea fluxes of mass, heat, and momentum and their impact on global weather and climate. The grant does not have a set-aside designation. UW is a leading research university that has received numerous prime federal contract awards and subcontracts from agencies such as the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA), Defense...
This is a $989,657.00 grant award from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Shared Services Center to the University of Washington (UW) for research on using new combinations of remote sensing data to estimate surface density and ice layers. The goal is to provide estimations that may equal or surpass the accuracy of computationally expensive multi-layer snow models. This is not a set-aside award. UW, as a leading research university, has a history of prime federal contract and grant awards from various agencies, including the Department of Veterans Affairs, Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency, and National Institutes of Health, to provide research, medical, and other technical services. The award has a period of performance through September 2025.
