This federal contract award, valued at $114,818.76, was granted to The Leland Stanford Junior University (Stanford University) by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to conduct research on the physics of magmatic intrusions, known as dikes, and their role in volcanic eruptions. The award supports the application of sophisticated numerical models to investigate various aspects of dike formation, including kinks, barriers, and the transition from lateral to vertical...
This is a $541,921 grant awarded by NASA to the University of Illinois for research on using interferometric synthetic-aperture radar (InSAR) and GPS data to develop a data assimilation framework to detect precursors and forecast eruptions for high-risk volcanoes in the Aleutian Arc. The grant aims to build a near real-time monitoring system to provide eruption forecasts in coordination with the Alaska Volcano Observatory. The research will optimize the use of satellite InSAR data, combine it...
The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) awarded a $135,000.00 grant to Cornell University to conduct research on using InSAR (Interferometric Synthetic Aperture Radar) satellite measurements to detect volcanic unrest in inaccessible areas. This 3-year contract, awarded on September 1, 2019, aims to provide critical information on volcanic activity that could precede an eruption. The research will focus on properly interpreting InSAR data to distinguish harmless unrest from...
This federal contract award to the National Academy of Sciences (NAS), a private non-profit organization, is for a study to better characterize and understand volcanic eruptions, improve predictive capabilities, and inform monitoring and early warning efforts. The $99,693.48 grant is funded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) and is not associated with a set-aside designation. The study will bring together experts from various disciplines to discuss the research,...
This is a $276,284.34 grant awarded by NASA to the South Dakota School of Mines and Technology, a science and engineering university, to advance the numerical modeling methods used to quantify magma migration within the non-uniform rheological structure and stress field of an active volcano. The project aims to improve the interpretation of InSAR data for active volcanoes by developing tools to estimate parameters and uncertainties that describe the shape of the magma chamber, the history of...
This is a grant award from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of Hawaii at Manoa for a research project focused on improving the monitoring of volcanic activity and eruptions using satellite data. The project aims to create a 30-year global record of volcanic thermal unrest by integrating measurements from various satellite sensors, with the goal of enhancing NASA's ability to forecast volcanic behavior and mitigate its effects on society. The grant has...
This federal contract award to Cornell University, a private research university in Ithaca, New York, is to develop and demonstrate a multi-platform satellite observing system to monitor hundreds of volcanoes across Latin America. The $602,492 grant, awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA), is part of the Committee on Earth Observation Satellites (CEOS) Volcano Pilot Project, which aims to leverage international satellite data to improve understanding of volcanic...
This federal contract award, valued at $116,742.51, was issued by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to Southern Methodist University (SMU) to develop physics-based models of volcanic activity in the Aleutian Island Arc. The goal is to better understand how variations in subduction zone dynamics affect volcanic eruption and deformation styles across five key volcanoes in the region. The research leverages satellite data, seismic analysis, and advanced modeling techniques...
This is a $78,643.53 grant awarded by NASA to the University of South Florida (USF) for research directly aligned with NASA's goal to address increasing exposure to natural hazards. The grant falls under one of NASA's top research directives from its Decadal Survey to improve the accuracy of digital elevation models (DEMs) at active volcanoes. The award has a period of performance from October 2, 2019 to June 28, 2022. USF, a major public research university, has a strong track record of...
The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) awarded a $678,427.00 grant to Cornell University for research on volcanic eruptions and associated hazards. The grant will fund work to be performed in Ithaca, New York through April 5, 2025. This research contract is not associated with any larger contract vehicle, and no set-aside designation was indicated. As a premier research institution, Cornell University has a long history of serving as a prime contractor for federal agencies...
