As a public research university, UC Berkeley conducts a wide range of...
- This is a grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of California, Berkeley (UC Berkeley) to study the relationship between time-dependent surface loads, slow slip events, and seismicity in the south-central Alaska subduction zone. The grant, valued at $508,875.19, will support research using space geodetic deformation and gravity data to model the mechanical processes driving surface deformation and associated stress changes, and investigate how...
- This is a $426,615 grant award to The Regents of the University of California, doing business as the University of California, Berkeley, by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA). The contract is for research related to landslides, which are a natural geomorphic process that can be a dangerous hazard causing thousands of casualties and billions in property losses globally each year. The award has an ultimate completion date of January 19, 2026. The University of California,...
- This is a $278,019 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of California, Davis (UC Davis) to conduct research related to land surface change and associated natural hazards. The grant supports the development of predictive capabilities and early warning technologies for major earthquakes, focusing on modeling the dynamics of tsunamis using the Tsunami Squares method. The work builds upon previous NASA-funded efforts to model earthquakes,...
- This is a $200,000.00 grant awarded 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 contract is for research titled "DECIPHERING SIGNALS OF OFF-FAULT INELASTIC DEFORMATION IN SPACE GEODETIC OBSERVATIONS" and has an ultimate completion date of October 3, 2026. The award is not set-aside and represents a direct contract between NASA and UC Berkeley. UC...
- This is a $339,644.46 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of California San Diego (UCSD) Scripps Institution of Oceanography. The grant supports a 3-year research project to measure the seismic moment accumulation rate and crustal strain rate along the San Andreas Fault System using a combination of Interferometric Synthetic Aperture Radar (InSAR) and Global Positioning System (GPS) data. The project aims to improve processing methods for...
- This is a $468,288.56 grant awarded by NASA to the University of California San Diego (UCSD) Scripps Institution of Oceanography to measure tectonic crustal strain rates along the San Andreas Fault system using a combination of InSAR and GNSS data. The goal is to accurately forecast large-scale geological hazards in a socially relevant timeframe by achieving an average velocity accuracy of 0.5 mm/yr over 10 km. This will require applying several corrections to the InSAR data, including solid...
- This is a $897,219.00 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of California, Berkeley (UC Berkeley) for a research project titled "The Role of Sierra Nevada Mountains in Regulating Central Valley Groundwater Recharge". The grant is part of a larger research program focused on understanding the impact of the Sierra Nevada Mountains on groundwater recharge in California's Central Valley. UC Berkeley, as the prime contractor, will...
- This is a $135,000.00 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the Regents of the University of California, doing business as the University of California, Berkeley. The grant is for research related to "SURFACE UPLIFT RATES, THE LITHOSPHERIC STRUCTURE, AND THE FLOW OF MANTLE BELOW" and has a period of performance from September 1, 2021 to August 31, 2025. The award was not set aside for any specific business type. As a research university, UC...
- This is a $596,818.34 research grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of California, Berkeley (UC Berkeley) on April 1, 2017. The grant supports an investigation of momentum processes in solar eruptions by combining multi-instrument observations and numerical modeling. The research aims to address key questions related to the evolution of the photospheric magnetic field and its relation to the Lorentz force during solar eruptions, the...
This is a $420,696.71 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of California, Berkeley (UC Berkeley) to conduct research on improving fault slip estimates for large magnitude earthquakes. The goal is to better understand the natural hazards associated with earthquakes in order to enhance mitigation and preparation efforts. The research will focus on using a range of geodetic data to produce accurate estimates of fault slip across the entire rupture plane, which can help elucidate the underlying processes that drive coseismic slip. This work is expected to provide information necessary to more fully understand the inherent variability of fault slip for earthquakes, thereby allowing the data to be used more effectively by seismic hazard planners, seismologists, geologists, and geodesists. The grant is part of NASA's Earth Surface and Interior (ESI) program and does not have a set-aside designation.
