This federal contract award from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) was granted to the University of Colorado, Boulder to produce a solar spectral irradiance (SSI) record suitable for whole atmosphere chemistry-climate model (CCM) transient studies over solar cycles 23 and 24. The $244,538.87 grant will utilize data from the SORCE mission's SIM and SOLSTICE instruments to generate a broad-spectrum SSI dataset compliant with total solar irradiance measurements. This SSI...
This federal contract award from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) is a $364,058.29 grant provided to the Regents of the University of Colorado, Boulder for a 3-year research project. The grant will fund the University's efforts to characterize the performance and long-term stability of solar irradiance measurement instruments, including the Total Solar Irradiance Sensor (TSIS) and Compact Spectral Irradiance Monitor (CSIM), to improve understanding of solar variability....
This is a $355,728.70 grant awarded by NASA to the University of Colorado's Office of Contracts and Grants Division to study long-term variations in solar spectral irradiance (SSI) over solar cycles 21 through 24. The objectives are to separate solar cycle variability from instrumental trends in past SSI satellite measurements, produce a more accurate composite SSI record, and combine it with new SSI measurements expected from the upcoming Total Solar Irradiance Sensor (TSIS) and Compact...
This federal contract award from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) was granted to the University of Colorado, a U.S. state government entity and institution of higher learning. The $239,975.76 grant is for the University to establish the magnitude and temporal structure of the Sun's irradiance variability across ultraviolet, visible, and infrared wavelengths over time scales from months to decades. The goal is to consolidate this data into an improved proxy model of...
The U.S. National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) awarded a $596,339 grant to the University of Colorado (CU) to enhance the utility of data from the Total and Spectral Solar Irradiance Sensor-1 (TSIS-1) for Earth science investigations. The grant, awarded without a set-aside, will support the development of new gap-filled and temporally-interpolated data products from the TSIS-1 SIM instrument to benefit NASA's solar and atmospheric research. As a public research university, CU...
This is a $355,032.00 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the Regents of the University of Colorado, acting through the University of Colorado's Office of Contracts and Grants Division. The goal of this Solar Irradiance Science Team (NNH20ZDA001N-SIST) proposal effort is to improve the full mission solar spectral irradiance (SSI) data record of the Compact Spectral Irradiance Monitor (CSIM) instrument. This will be accomplished by using comparisons...
The Regents of the University of Colorado, through its Office of Contracts and Grants Division, was awarded a $4,490,047.60 grant from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to develop and demonstrate a Compact Solar Spectral Irradiance Monitor (CSIM) CubeSat mission. The goal is to provide continuity of key solar irradiance measurements and mitigate potential gaps in observational records. The CSIM mission builds on the University's prior work advancing ESTO-funded...
This $440,286.00 grant was awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of Colorado Office of Contracts and Grants Division to conduct research on improving the Total Solar Irradiance Sensor (TSIS-1) on NASA's Earth observing satellite. The research aims to fill measurement gaps, analyze TSI composites, and understand correlations with other solar instruments. The University of Colorado, a U.S. state government higher education institution, will deliver...
The Regents of the University of Colorado, on behalf of its Office of Contracts and Grants Division, was awarded a $389,940.42 grant by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to enhance solar irradiance variability models. The project aims to incorporate data from the new GOES-16 satellite to increase reliability, increase spectral resolution to enable more detailed atmospheric radiative transfer modeling, and develop alternative models based on total solar irradiance...
The University of Colorado was awarded a $499,296.68 grant from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to develop a detailed mission concept for a next-generation solar irradiance observation system. The award is part of NASA's Instrument/Measurement Concept Demonstration (IIP-ICD) program, which aims to advance novel instrument and measurement technologies. The University of Colorado will utilize its expertise in space physics, climate science, and aerospace engineering to...
