The National Aeronautic and Space Administration (NASA) awarded a $105,000 grant to the University of Washington under contract 21-SMDSS21-0029 to support research exploring synergies between measurements from the Surface Water and Ocean Topography (SWOT) satellite mission and airborne altimetry. Specifically, the grant will fund work investigating how data from SWOT's wide-swath interferometry can improve hydrologic studies of surface water dynamics when combined with measurements from the...
This federal contract award from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Shared Services Center is a $448,437 grant to the University of Washington (UW) to provide three key services to support the Surface Water and Ocean Topography (SWOT) Science Definition Team (SDT) in its second term from 2016-2020. The first service is ground-truthing of SWOT elevation and river width data over the Indus and Ganges-Brahmaputra river basins in Asia. The second service is providing SWOT...
This is a grant award to The Ohio State University from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to conduct research related to improving discharge estimates from the Surface Water and Ocean Topography (SWOT) satellite mission. The research objectives are to: 1) integrate lateral inflows into a SWOT discharge algorithm, 2) integrate lake/reservoir dynamics into a SWOT discharge algorithm, 3) develop a SWOT modeling application for community water resources planning and flood...
This federal contract award to the University of Washington (UW) provides $668,427.00 in funding for research related to the Surface Water and Ocean Topography (SWOT) mission. SWOT is a joint satellite mission between NASA, the French space agency CNES, the Canadian Space Agency, and the UK Space Agency that will observe the 2-D structure of sea surface height on 15-120 km wavelength scales, potentially transforming understanding of ocean dynamics at these scales. The contract, awarded by the...
This federal contract award, identified as NNX16AH65G, was granted by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Shared Services Center to the University of Washington. The $352,925.31 grant will fund research to quantify ocean variability at 15-100 km wavelengths, assess how submesoscale to mesoscale processes will be captured by the Surface Water and Ocean Topography (SWOT) mission, and develop sampling strategies for SWOT validation and integrated regional observational...
This is a $409,679.64 research grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to The Ohio State University (OSU) to support the development and validation of algorithms for estimating river discharge in the Arctic using data from the upcoming Surface Water and Ocean Topography (SWOT) mission and existing ArcticDEM elevation data. The grant will fund work to characterize the accuracy of river height, width, and slope measurements from ArcticDEM, evaluate flow law models...
The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) awarded a $135,000 training grant to the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) through its Office of Research Administration division. The contract supports a research study to assess the performance of different data assimilation approaches for inferring river discharge from surface water elevation measurements collected by the upcoming NASA/CNES Surface Water and Ocean Topography (SWOT) satellite mission, which is scheduled to...
The University of Washington was awarded a $824,494 federal grant from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Shared Services Center to quantify the net impact of the SWOT mission in improving our understanding of human regulation of surface water around the world. This is a research grant without a set-aside designation, with a period of performance ending on September 14, 2028. The University of Washington is a leading research university that has previously received prime...

This federal contract award is for a research grant to the University of Washington (UW) for a project titled "IMPROVED RESERVOIR MANAGEMENT WITH SIMULTANEOUS MONITORING OF WATER QUANTITY AND QUALITY USING MULTIPLE SATELLITES SWOT AND RAT WQ2". The award, valued at $1,031,735, was made by the Shared Services Center of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) on April 15, 2022, with an ultimate completion date of April 14, 2026. UW, a leading public research...

This is a research grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Shared Services Center to the University of Washington to determine if river discharge and subsurface river dynamics can be described from a Surface Water and Ocean Topography (SWOT) measurement of the surface height anomaly within an estuary and at the river mouth. The $103,758.67 grant involves a laboratory experiment, analysis of field data, and development of an analytical model to predict discharge from the sea surface height anomaly, in order to assess the capabilities of the upcoming SWOT satellite mission. The research aims to advance the understanding of how SWOT could be used to observe river discharge and estuarine dynamics. The contract has no set-aside designation.
