- This federal contract award, valued at $99,952.62, was granted to the University of Alaska Fairbanks (UAF) by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to conduct a sustainable, integrated Arctic research project in the Chukchi Sea. The award, which does not have a set-aside designation, is a grant for research activities that will be completed by August 31, 2022. UAF, through its Grants and Contracts Administration Division, is the prime contractor on this project and will...
- This federal contract award, NNX16AK84G, was granted by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of Alaska Fairbanks (UAF) to conduct research on "Measuring and Modeling the Response of the Solid Earth to Changes in the Cryosphere and the Earthquake Cycle in Southern Alaska." The $138,792.91 grant will support UAF's efforts to study the impact of glacier mass changes and tectonic activity on the solid Earth in this tectonically active region. The...
- This federal contract award was made by the Shared Services Center, a civilian agency, to the University of Alaska Fairbanks (UAF). The $646,743.00 grant is for the "ROSES 2024 NNH23ZDA001N" research effort, which requires UAF to execute a balanced science program based on discipline-specific guidance, administration priorities, and direction from Congress. The effort involves UAF participating as a key partner and enabler in the agency's exploration initiative, focusing on...
- This federal contract award, valued at $501,186.91, was granted by the Shared Services Center (NASA) to the University of Alaska Fairbanks (UAF) to conduct research related to the New Frontiers Data Analysis Program. The objective is to enhance the scientific return from New Frontiers missions by broadening participation in the analysis and interpretation of data from the Juno mission to Jupiter. The proposed study will use Juno observations and plasma simulations to understand the structure...
- This is a grant award from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of Alaska Fairbanks (UAF) for a 3-year period with a ceiling value of $463,066. The award is not set aside for any specific business type. Under this grant, UAF will execute a balanced science program based on guidance from the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine, administration priorities, and direction from Congress. UAF will participate as a key partner and enabler in...
This federal contract award, with an ID of NNX15AH87G, was granted by the Shared Services Center of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of Alaska Fairbanks (UAF) for research on the solar wind interaction with Pluto's escaping atmosphere. The $333,308 grant supports the use of a three-dimensional hybrid code to investigate the geometry of the interaction region and help interpret data from NASA's New Horizons mission. The research aims to validate models of Pluto's thermospheric structure and extent. This contract does not have a set-aside designation, reflecting UAF's status as a public university. As Alaska's flagship research institution, UAF has extensive expertise in Arctic and space physics research, and frequently collaborates with federal agencies on a variety of scientific initiatives.
