- This is a $248,045 grant award from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the Bermuda Institute of Ocean Sciences (BIOS) Inc., a U.S. not-for-profit research and educational institution focused on oceanography and marine science. The grant supports a research project to quantify benthic cover and primary productivity of coral reefs across the Hawaiian archipelago using high-altitude AVIRIS airborne remote sensing data collected in 2016. The project aims to fill data gaps,...
- The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) awarded a $615,271.00 grant to the University of Miami's Rosenstiel School of Marine and Atmospheric Science to conduct the PICOGRAM project. PICOGRAM aims to classify shallow marine ecosystems, including coral reefs, using remote sensing data and in-situ measurements. This data fusion approach is intended to enhance the assessment and monitoring of global coral reef systems and support coral reef management efforts in regions like Guam....
- This federal contract award, valued at $748,026.00, establishes a scientific partnership between the University of the Virgin Islands (UVI), the College of Charleston (CoFC), Kent State University (KSU), and the National Aeronautics and Space Administration's (NASA) Ames Research Center (ARC). The project aims to quantify the relationship between water optical properties observed by NASA's space-based sensors and in-situ measurements of optically active constituents on coral reefs. This research...
- This federal contract award to the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) under grant NNX15AT98G is for research to use remotely sensed and simulated radiance data to extract information on coral reef benthic composition and coral bleaching. The $260,092.31 grant is part of the "Using HYSPIRI to Identify Benthic Composition and Bleaching in Shallow Coral Reef Ecosystems" program and is funded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA). The research will assess...
- The University of Massachusetts Boston received a cooperative agreement valued at $742,226 from the Shared Services Center to conduct research on "Using Hyperspectral Imagery to Assess the Effects of Warming on New England Kelp Forests" (Contract 21-OCEANSTEP2-0022). The award, effective January 1, 2022, with an ultimate completion date of December 31, 2026, will be performed at UMass Boston's Dorchester, Massachusetts location. This contract does not carry a set-aside designation...
- This federal contract award, with ID 80NSSC21K1906, was granted by the National Science Foundation (NSF) to the University of Massachusetts Boston. The $280,404 grant is for research purposes and does not have a set-aside designation. The award recognizes the University of Massachusetts Boston's contributions through the National Aeronautics and Space Administration's (NASA) TERRA satellite mission, which reached its 20th anniversary in 2019. The university's research and development work has...
- This federal contract award is for a research grant from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) to the University of Hawaii at Manoa for the development of improved predictive models of coral disease outbreaks in the western tropical Pacific Ocean. The goal is to incorporate higher-resolution satellite-derived data, including sea surface temperature and ocean color, into the existing NOAA Coral Reef Watch decision support system. The $1,075,584.71 grant is being used to...
- This federal contract award to the University of Massachusetts Boston (UMass Boston) is focused on the continued maintenance and production of climate quality land surface albedo, bidirectional reflectance distribution function (BRDF), and nadir BRDF-adjusted surface reflectance (NBAR) products from the Suomi-NPP and JPSS (NOAA-20) satellite missions. These products provide essential data on the radiative character of the Earth's land surfaces, which is critical input for climate, weather,...
- This federal contract award, with ID 80NSSC18K0509, was granted by the Shared Services Center, a civilian agency, to the University of Massachusetts Boston. The contract, with a ceiling value of $84,342.00, is a grant for research to investigate the sensitivity of bidirectional reflectance distribution function (BRDF) corrections to the particle scattering phase functions. This research aims to better understand the uncertainty in BRDF corrections, which is critical for accurately measuring...
