- This federal contract award was granted by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Shared Services Center to the University of Montana for a research project focused on modeling the likelihood of recruitment failure in semi-arid forests of the western United States. The $688,998.06 grant will support the integration of earth observation data, in-situ data, and a coupled ecohydrologic/plant hydraulics model to simulate indicators of seedling mortality, such as loss of hydraulic...
- The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) awarded a $210,300.80 grant to the University of Montana to investigate the response of seasonal phenology, carbon dioxide (CO2) exchange, and atmospheric CO2 to spring warming, soil thaw, and liquid water availability in North America. The research project, which does not have a set-aside designation, will leverage multi-scale carbon and water cycle observations, as well as land and atmosphere models, to elucidate the impacts of...
- The University of Montana, located in Missoula, Montana, was awarded a Cooperative Agreement worth $581,645.26 by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to develop data products that improve understanding of ecosystem dynamics using remote sensing data collected during a 2017 airborne campaign. The project will quantify permafrost active layer patterns, seasonal variations, and recent trends across Alaska and Northwest Canada. The University will develop new remote sensing...
- The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) awarded a $254,247.34 grant to the University of Maryland, College Park to conduct research on the growth, disturbance, and carbon dynamics of northern hemisphere forests. The research aims to improve understanding of Arctic/boreal terrestrial ecosystems and their potential to release stored carbon. The study will leverage NASA/USGS Landsat satellite imagery and WorldView sub-meter imagery to quantify ecological relationships between stand...

The $11,487.44 grant-funded contract, with a completion date of July 10, 2024, does not have a set-aside designation. The University of Montana, through its Research and Sponsored...
- This is a $149,504.00 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Shared Services Center to the University of Montana (UMT) to investigate the effect of Earth's 3D structure on load-induced surface displacement. The award has a period of performance ending on July 28, 2027. UMT, a public research university, will leverage its expertise in environmental monitoring, ecological studies, and scientific research to support this NASA-funded project. The contract has no...
- This federal contract award, valued at $732,078.70, was granted by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to New Mexico State University (NMSU) to study wood biomass distributions and carbon cycle dynamics in the drought-seasonal savannas and woodlands of Africa. The award aims to develop improved remote sensing products, analyze current biomass distributions, project future biomass distributions under climate and land use change scenarios, investigate the presence and nature...
- This federal contract award, valued at $478,214.00, was granted by the Shared Services Center to the University of Montana to provide continuity for the Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) MOD17 Land Gross Primary Production, Net Primary Production, and MOD16 Evapotranspiration datasets on the Terra and Aqua satellites. The contract is a grant for research, with a period of performance through September 30, 2025. The University of Montana, operating as Research and Sponsored...
- This federal contract award is for a grant to the University of Maine System, through its University of Maine division, to develop an integrated data and modeling framework for monitoring, reporting, and verifying forest carbon stocks and fluxes in the Acadian Forest region of the northeastern U.S. and eastern Canada. The $940,308 grant, awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA), aims to improve regional-scale carbon budget estimates by assimilating remote sensing...
This federal contract award, valued at $103,278.86, was granted by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of Montana to conduct research on the impacts of climate change on carbon release from forest disturbances in the western United States. The research project, which runs from September 1, 2015 to August 31, 2018, aims to investigate the resistance and resilience of forests to changes in disturbance regimes, such as fire, drought, and insects, and how these changes have affected the net carbon balance of forests. The University of Montana will utilize 30-meter Landsat reflectance data and the Community Land Model (CLM) to detect and quantify biomass mortality from disturbances between 1984-2010, assign disturbance agents using Bayesian classification, and simulate the impacts of disturbances on forest carbon uptake capacity from 2010-2100. This research aligns with NASA's strategic objective to advance knowledge of the Earth as a system and address environmental change. The contract does not have a set-aside designation.
