This is a $135,000 training grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Shared Services Center to the University of California, Irvine (UC Irvine) on September 1, 2018. The grant supports research to characterize the topology and flux partition characteristics of Arctic delta channel networks and their connectivity with thermokarst lakes. The goal is to improve understanding of how localized changes in connectivity drive system-wide response and reorganization in...
The U.S. National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) has awarded a $738,346.00 grant to the University of California Irvine (UC Irvine) to conduct research on the sea level contribution of the Antarctic ice sheet. The grant, titled "SEA LEVEL CONTRIBUTION OF THE ANTARCTIC ICE SHEET WITH IMPROVED REPRESENTATION OF GROUNDING ZONE DYNAMICS AND OCEAN CONDITIONS," is intended to improve scientific understanding of the processes driving ice sheet changes and their impact on global...
This federal contract award was granted by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) for the NASA-ISRO Synthetic Aperture Radar (NISAR) mission. The NISAR mission will use radar to study changes in polar ice sheets and sea ice, measure Earth's surface deformation, and characterize global ecosystems. This grant, valued at $345,775.36, supports MIT's role as the Applications Lead for the NISAR Science Definition Team. The contract...

The award has an ultimate completion date of July 29, 2025. UC Irvine is a public research university with extensive expertise across disciplines including engineering, physical sciences, and climate research. The grant...
This is a grant award from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to Stanford University for research on the NASA-ISRO Synthetic Aperture Radar (NISAR) mission. The grant, valued at $322,552.91, aims to help ensure NISAR provides data that supports a wide range of scientific investigations and societal applications, with a focus on maximizing the mission's ability to observe surface deformation even in challenging environments through the use of persistent scatterer InSAR...
This federal contract award from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) was granted to the University of California, Irvine (UC Irvine) to conduct gravity sounding research on glaciers in southern Greenland. The $984,614 grant will enable UC Irvine to employ a novel approach using high-resolution helicopter-borne gravity data to map glacier thickness at a spatial resolution of 500 meters with a precision of 50 meters. This data will be integrated with other sources, including...

This is a $345,760.51 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of California, Irvine (UC Irvine) to continue support for the definition of science goals, requirements, measurement requirements, product definition, and science algorithm development, as well as data distribution and calibration/validation planning for the NASA-ISRO Synthetic Aperture Radar (NISAR) mission. The work will be done in collaboration with other key NASA missions focused on the cryosphere, such as Operation IceBridge, GRACE, and ICESat-2, as well as international InSAR missions. The NISAR mission is expected to provide critical, continuous, high-quality observations of glaciers and ice sheets to better understand and project their contribution to sea level rise. This award does not have a set-aside designation, as UC Irvine is competing based on its research capabilities as a public research university and member of the Association of American Universities.
