This federal contract, awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA), is a grant for research with the University of Hawaii (UH) as the prime contractor. The contract, valued at $537,628.55, supports UH's participation in the science team for the Surface Water and Ocean Topography (SWOT) satellite mission. The goal is to characterize and understand the nature and roles of mesoscale and sub-mesoscale variability in upper ocean circulation dynamics, utilizing the SWOT simulator and high-resolution ocean general circulation models (OGCMs). This research aims to contribute to the oceanography priorities of studying mesoscale and submesoscale processes, as well as the interaction of large-scale ocean circulation with smaller-scale features. The contract has no set-aside designation, reflecting UH's status as a large educational institution with extensive federal research experience. This effort aligns with NASA's broader objectives in space-based Earth science and ocean monitoring.
