- This is a $100,000.00 Cooperative Agreement awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of North Dakota (UND) to support the identification of high latitude cloud, aerosol, and blowing snow layers using machine learning of lidar and polarimeter data. The award, which is not set aside, has an ultimate completion date of August 14, 2026. UND, a major public research institution, has extensive experience executing federal contracts and grants across various...
- The University of North Dakota (UND) received a $743,285.78 cooperative agreement from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to develop advanced inversion algorithms to retrieve global distributions of phytoplankton, colored detrital matter, and other biogeochemical stocks from satellite ocean color data. The goal is to support studies of oceanic carbon sequestration. The principal investigator is Dr. Xiaodong Zhang from UND's Department of Earth System Science and Policy....
- The University of North Dakota (UND) Division of Research & Economic Development has been awarded a $1,000,000 Cooperative Agreement from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) through the North Dakota NASA Experimental Program to Stimulate Competitive Research (EPSCoR). The goal of this program is to increase North Dakota's competitiveness for merit-based grants and contracts with federal funding agencies to support science and technology research. UND, as the prime...
- This is a $303,784.49 grant award from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of North Dakota (UND) Division of Research & Economic Development for a research project titled "Dynamics and Chemistry of the Summer Stratosphere (DCOTSS)." The project aims to study the impact of convective storms on the lower stratosphere over North America during the summer monsoon season. The award is part of NASA's broader research efforts to understand the...
- This is a USD 4,240,000.00 Cooperative Agreement awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of North Dakota (UND) Division of Research & Economic Development. The award supports graduate, undergraduate, and K-12 student STEM experiences to enhance the NASA and technical workforce, as well as nurture and grow research initiatives across multiple institutions. UND, a major research university, has extensive experience managing large federal projects...
- 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 $758,436 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of North Dakota (UND) supports the university's participation in the Olympic Mountains Experiment (OLYMPEX), which is part of NASA's Global Precipitation Measurement (GPM) mission. Under this grant, UND will deploy its Cessna Citation aircraft to collect in-situ measurements of cloud microphysics and atmospheric conditions in coordination with remote sensing observations from NASA aircraft. The data collected will be used to validate GPM precipitation retrieval algorithms and improve understanding of the usefulness of GPM satellite data for hydrologic prediction. As a major research university with expertise in areas like aerospace and climate science, UND has extensive experience managing federal research contracts and grants across a range of disciplines.
