This is a $402,026 grant awarded by the Shared Services Center, a civilian agency, to the University of Alabama in Huntsville (UAH) for a research project titled "Linking Convective Processes and Satellite Lightning Measurements: New Insights from Modern Analysis of Cloud, Precipitation, and Lightning Data Collected During 2017 NASA ER-2 Field Campaign Flights". The award, which has an ultimate completion date of August 31, 2026, is not set aside. UAH is a non-profit,...
This $404,531.00 federal grant award from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of Alabama in Huntsville (UAH) supports research and development to improve the 45th Weather Squadron's ability to provide accurate and timely convective wind warnings. The goal is to achieve 30-minute lead times for 35-knot winds and 60-minute lead times for 50-knot winds, given the typical 45-60 minute lifecycle of convective cells. UAH, a public research university, has...
The National Aeronautics and Space Administration Shared Services Center awarded a $1,008,535.96 grant to The University of Alabama in Huntsville for research to develop a deep learning application to enhance the resolution of Global Precipitation Measurement data. The goal is improved identification of convective scale precipitation features outside the range of ground-based weather radar. Using convolutional neural networks, the university will build upon an existing prototype to infer...
This federal contract award, valued at $187,376.00, was granted by the Shared Services Center, a civilian agency, to the University of Alabama in Huntsville (UAH) to support research and development related to analyzing severe convective storms using data from the next-generation GOES-R weather satellite.
