- This is a $140,410.98 grant award to the University of Maryland Baltimore County (UMBC) from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Shared Services Center. The grant supports research to investigate constraints on the variability and spatial correlation structure of hydrometeors in the atmospheric column, and the impacts of hydrometeor variability on GPM (Global Precipitation Measurement) estimation of falling snow water equivalent rates. The work leverages data from GPM...
- The University of Maryland Baltimore County (UMBC) was awarded a $402,594 research grant by a civilian federal agency (Shared Services Center) on April 21, 2023, to conduct research on cloud composition analysis derived from sun glints reflecting off horizontally oriented ice crystals. The research will be performed in Baltimore, Maryland, with an ultimate completion date of April 20, 2026. This grant was not designated with a small business set-aside, reflecting UMBC's competitive...
- This contract award is for a study to evaluate remote sensing snowfall estimates in conjunction with the GPM (Global Precipitation Measurement) Validation Network and satellite-based precipitation estimates. The study will generate "ground truth" precipitation rate data from National Weather Service Automated Surface Observing Stations during snowfall events to compare against the Validation Network and GPM estimates. The work will leverage data from GPM ground validation research...
- This federal contract award, with ID NNX17AH28G, was granted by the Shared Services Center, a civilian agency, to the University of Maryland Baltimore County (UMBC). The $213,736.35 grant supports research to evaluate dust simulations and assess the impact of aerosol data assimilation in the GEOS-5 Earth system model. The goals are to identify dust source contributions, investigate observed dustiness trends, and improve understanding of dust processes in the atmosphere. This research aligns with...
