- The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) awarded a $120,000.00 grant for research to the Regents of the University of Michigan Office of Research and Sponsored Projects, doing business as the University of Michigan. The grant will advance the development of the Ultra-Wideband Software-Defined Microwave Radiometer (UWBRAD) instrument, which was previously deployed on a tower in Antarctica and during an airborne campaign over Greenland. The research aims to enhance the use of...
- This federal contract award from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the Regents of the University of Colorado, acting through its Office of Contracts and Grants, aims to use remotely sensed sea surface temperature data to monitor and compare coastal and fjord warming features around the Greenland Ice Sheet (GIS) in relation to measured ice front retreat of major outlet glaciers since 2000. The $119,999.99 award, which is not designated as a set-aside, supports research...
- 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 $720,771.62 research grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of Colorado's Office of Contracts and Grants. The grant, titled "Bridging the Snow - Sea Ice Gap: A Snow on Sea Ice Assimilation System for the Arctic", aims to develop daily and monthly snow depth and density products to support improved satellite-based measurements of sea ice thickness. This information is critical for understanding and predicting changes in...
- This is a $249,898 research grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of Colorado to develop an improved radiative transfer model for processing data from passive and active microwave remote sensing instruments. The model will incorporate advanced capabilities to handle complex hydrometeors and cloud structures, improving applications in weather forecasting, climate science, and satellite data assimilation. Key enhancements include...
- This is a $100,803.88 grant award from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of Colorado, an accredited public research university, to conduct research on monitoring and measuring changes in the mass balance of the Greenland and Antarctic ice sheets. The research aims to improve predictive models for sea level rise by analyzing surface mass balance and firn structure data collected during NASA's Operation IceBridge airborne survey missions. The grant supports...
- The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) awarded a $300,228.00 grant to The Ohio State University (OSU) to conduct airborne experiments with the Ultra-Wideband Radiometer (UWBRAD) in Victoria Land, Antarctica. The UWBRAD instrument was previously developed by OSU and the Nello Carrara Institute for Applied Physics (IFAC) in Florence, Italy to measure subsurface properties of the cryosphere, including ice sheets and sea ice. This grant will support installing and certifying the...
- This federal contract award, valued at $382,307.00, was granted by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the Regents of the University of Colorado, doing business as the University of Colorado, to analyze data from the Ice, Cloud, and land Elevation Satellite-2 (ICESat-2) mission. The overarching goal is to evaluate ICESat-2's capability to observe and measure changes in the cryosphere, such as glacial acceleration and melt processes, which are critical to understanding...
- This federal grant was awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of Colorado, a U.S. state government entity and institution of higher learning, to map the surface mass balance (SMB) of the Antarctic ice sheet at high resolution using a combination of satellite altimetry data and atmospheric reanalysis. The goal is to better understand the dynamics and contribution of ice sheet elevation changes to sea level rise. The $616,158.82 grant does not have...
- This $146,335 federal contract award was issued by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the Regents of the University of Colorado, doing business as the University of Colorado Office of Contracts and Grants Division. The award, which does not have a set-aside designation, is for research to investigate the causes of radar-detected layering in ice sheets. The work will involve constructing a layered ice sheet in a cold room and conducting radar tests, collecting radar...
