- This federal contract award, identified as NNX16AE20G, was granted by the Shared Services Center (part of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration) to the University of Maryland, College Park. The $453,604.00 grant is for research focused on using data from the Tropical Rainfall Measuring Mission (TRMM) and Global Precipitation Measurement (GPM) satellites to provide the best possible estimates of mean surface precipitation over the TRMM/GPM era. The research will examine seasonal,...
- This is a $408,529.79 research grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of Maryland, College Park. The grant is to further develop the Precipitation Retrieval and Profiling Scheme (PRPS), a computationally efficient algorithm for retrieving precipitation data from cross-track satellite sensors. The research aims to extend PRPS to additional sensors, improve the underlying databases, enhance database access, and validate the retrievals. This...
- This federal contract award, valued at $261,089.00, was granted by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of Maryland, College Park (UMD) to conduct research combining high-resolution satellite observations from the Global Precipitation Measurement (GPM) mission with simulations from the Global Cloud-Resolving (or Cloud-Permitting) Model (GCRM). The goal is to improve understanding of the characteristics of precipitation systems and precipi. UMD is a prominent...
- This is a $256,160.00 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of Maryland, College Park (UMD) to improve coupled atmosphere-ocean Earth system analyses and weather forecasts by directly assimilating data from NASA's Global Precipitation Measurement (GPM) mission. The primary goal is to enhance understanding of the air-sea interface through advanced data assimilation techniques. This grant is not associated with a set-aside program. UMD is a...
- This is a $365,663 grant award from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of Maryland, College Park. The grant will enable the university to enhance the U.S. Army Streamflow Prediction Tool by incorporating data products from the Global Precipitation Measurement (GPM) satellite mission. This will improve the tool's ability to predict surface water flows, which supports the Army's operational needs. The University of Maryland is the prime recipient, and the...
- This federal contract award to the University of Maryland, College Park (UMD) is for research to improve understanding of tropical convection and its relationship with extreme precipitation events (EPEs) in the tropics and extratropics. The $320,484 grant is funded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) and has a February 2020 completion date. UMD will analyze data from satellite missions like TRMM, GPM, CloudSat, and MODIS to characterize precipitation and cloud systems,...
- This is a $284,733.14 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of Maryland, College Park for the "Improved Global Flood Monitoring and Forecasting with GPM Precipitation and Hydrological Models" project. The grant will focus on adapting the university's existing Global Flood Monitoring System (GFMS) to take advantage of improvements in the NASA Global Precipitation Measurement (GPM) mission's Integrated Multi-satellitE Retrievals for...
- This is a $119,999.99 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of Maryland, College Park to extend their initial successful work in assimilating Global Precipitation Measurement (GPM) Integrated Multi-satellitE Retrievals for GPM (IMERG) precipitation data. The key objectives are to: A) Compare IMERG and Tropical Rainfall Measuring Mission (TRMM) Multisatellite Precipitation Analysis (TMPA) data, B) Use a higher resolution Global Forecast System...
- This federal contract award, with ID 80NSSC20K0905, was granted by the Shared Services Center, a civilian agency, to the University of Maryland, College Park. The objective of this $119,477.08 grant for research is to enhance existing precipitation algorithms for the Global Precipitation Measurement (GPM) mission constellation, with a focus on retrieving light precipitation like snow and drizzle. The University of Maryland, College Park is a state-controlled institution of higher learning that...
- This federal contract award (NNX16AF17G) was granted by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of Maryland, College Park for a research project to test the hypothesis that merging microwave and gravimetric satellite measurements with an advanced land surface model can improve the accuracy and reduce uncertainty in estimating snow water equivalent, soil moisture, groundwater, and terrestrial water storage across regional and continental scales.
