- This is a $280,415.69 federal grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to George Mason University for research to improve estimates of hyperresolution root zone soil moisture. The research aims to develop a high-resolution hydrological modeling system to better characterize soil moisture and its impact on local weather, climate, and water resources management. The project will leverage data from NASA's Soil Moisture Active Passive (SMAP) satellite, as well as...
- This federal contract award to George Mason University, doing business as Mason, is for the "Novel Use of NASA Data with Emission Data Assimilation to Support U.S. National Air Quality Forecast" program. The $689,827.61 grant is funded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) and focuses on improving the National Air Quality Forecast Capability (NAQFC) through the integration of satellite and ground observation data from NASA. Key objectives include assimilating NASA...
- George Mason University was awarded a $520,126 research grant by a civilian federal agency's Shared Services Center with an ultimate completion date of September 2, 2026. The award, issued on September 3, 2020, supports a research initiative to quantify and investigate land-atmosphere interactions and feedbacks that operate primarily through water and energy cycles as controlled by soil moisture state. This grant represents civilian scientific research funding focused on understanding...
