- The University of Wisconsin-Madison will conduct atmospheric research of Uranus under a $437,447 grant from NASA. The university's Research and Sponsored Programs division, operating on behalf of the University of Wisconsin System, was awarded the prime contract to analyze striking asymmetries in Uranus' atmosphere that became evident following its 2007 equinox. Near-infrared adaptive optics images from 2011-2017 revealed numerous small, bright cloud features in the north polar region but none...
- This is a $313,439.68 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of Texas at Austin (UT Austin) to investigate the physical processes responsible for generating the magnetic fields, atmospheric circulations, and thermal emission patterns of the ice giants (such as Uranus and Neptune). The goal is to test the hypothesis that the dynamos and zonal winds are dynamically coupled and are a consequence of quasi-three-dimensional turbulence in the...
- This is a $624,870 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of Wisconsin System for a 7-year research project titled "Architectures of Compact Earth/Super-Earth/Neptune Planetary Systems". The award is not set aside and is part of NASA's broader effort to execute a balanced science program, participate in the agency's exploration initiative, and advance discovery in emerging fields. As a leading public research institution, the...
- This is a $337,092 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of Wisconsin System for research on "Environmental Controls on Tropical Oceanic Convection". The grant, which runs from July 2023 to July 2026, supports scientific research in the area of weather and climate. The University of Wisconsin System is a public university system headquartered in Madison, Wisconsin, and is the prime contractor for this grant. This grant award is...
- This federal contract award was granted by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the Regents of the University of California, doing business as the University of California, Berkeley (UC Berkeley). The $523,774.36 grant, with a performance period ending on January 17, 2024, will fund a multi-frequency campaign to probe the dynamics and deep atmospheric structure of the planet Uranus. The research aims to leverage observations from ground-based telescopes like the Very Large...
- This is a federal grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of Texas at Austin to investigate the seasonal changes in Uranus' upper atmosphere using near- and mid-infrared emission spectra. The $401,715 grant supports research to characterize the trend reversal in Uranus' thermospheric/ionospheric temperatures, which have been in a long-term downward trend since first observed in 1992. The objectives are to study the post-equinoctial lags,...
- The University of Wisconsin System's Division of University of Wisconsin-Madison was awarded a $100,000 grant on September 1, 2024, for research titled "Laboratory Investigation of Methylamine Photodissociation Products on Titan." The work will be performed in Madison, Wisconsin, and is expected to conclude by August 31, 2026. This civilian research grant, issued through a Shared Services Center, represents an open competition award with no set-aside designation and focuses on advanced...
- This is a $617,382 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of Wisconsin System for a five-year research program. The grant will fund the University of Wisconsin - Madison division to execute a balanced science program focused on disciplinary guidance, administration priorities, and congressional direction. Key objectives include participating as a partner in NASA's exploration initiatives, advancing discovery in emerging fields through...
- The U.S. government has awarded a $203,012 grant for research to the University of Wisconsin System, through its University of Wisconsin - Madison division operating as Research and Sponsored Programs. The grant, awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA), is to assess the impact of future and current spaceborne missions in order to improve estimates of nitrogen export and freshwater flux. The research will exploit various airborne and spaceborne remote sensing data to...
- This is a $1,010,737.00 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of Wisconsin - Madison, a division of the University of Wisconsin System, to conduct research on the weather of Venus. The investigation will utilize the Akatsuki (Venus Climate Orbiter) satellite to observe the planet's atmosphere and understand the superrotation phenomenon. Key areas of study include atmospheric motions, heat and momentum transport, and energy conversions. This...
