- This is a $104,999.80 federal contract award issued by NASA to The Trustees of Columbia University in the City of New York to conduct research on the Asian monsoon response to human-induced climate change. The objective is to analyze observational data and climate model outputs to understand the physical mechanisms by which greenhouse gases and aerosols impact the Asian monsoon system, including effects on precipitation and water resources. The research leverages NASA satellite data as well as...
- This $10,982,144.66 cooperative agreement was awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to The Trustees of Columbia University in the City of New York (Columbia University) to support research related to the observation and modeling of the Earth's climate system. The research covers climate variability, long-term climate change, and the impacts of climate change, with a focus on advancing the study of climate sensitivity to natural and anthropogenic forcings. Columbia...
- This federal contract award, valued at $740,679, was granted by NASA to The Trustees of Columbia University in the City of New York to conduct research on the relationship between air-sea fluxes, mid-latitude cyclones, and the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC). The objectives are to 1) understand how mid-latitude cyclones influence turbulent fluxes and affect Labrador Sea water mass formation and CO2 uptake, 2) assess the skill of the NASA-GISS climate model in reproducing storm...
- This federal contract award, valued at $964,659.52, was granted to The Trustees of Columbia University in the City of New York, operating as Columbia University, to conduct research on tropical cyclones (TCs) using a high-resolution version of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Goddard Institute for Space Studies (GISS) climate model. The project aims to develop an improved model for simulating TCs on a global scale and study the influence of climate change and the El...
- This federal contract award, with ID NNX17AF46G, was issued by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to The Trustees of Columbia University in the City of New York, operating through its Sponsored Projects Administration Division. The $193,351.79 grant funds research to optimize free parameters of global climate models using NASA observational datasets. The goal is to assess the impact of incorporating observational uncertainty into model performance metrics, and determine how...
- The U.S. government awarded a $14.2 million cooperative agreement (Contract No. 23-NUP2023-0090) to Columbia University's Sponsored Projects Administration Division for interdisciplinary research on Earth and planetary system modeling, climate change impacts, and the habitability of other worlds through December 31, 2026. This non-set-aside award was issued on January 1, 2024, by a civilian federal agency's Shared Services Center and will be performed in New York, New York. The cooperative...
- The Trustees of Columbia University in the City of New York was awarded a $689,109 research grant by the Shared Services Center (a civilian federal agency) on July 9, 2021, with an ultimate completion date of December 31, 2026. The grant supports development of a new vegetation model to be coupled with the Goddard Institute for Space Studies ModelE (GISS-E) climate model, incorporating data assimilation and machine learning algorithms designed to improve representation of critical vegetation...
- This federal contract award, identified as 80NSSC21K1134, was granted to The Trustees of Columbia University in the City of New York, doing business as Columbia University, to conduct research focused on improving the understanding of low-cloud feedbacks and their representation in the NASA Goddard Institute for Space Studies Earth System Model (NASA-GISS ESM). The award, valued at $409,547.00, is a grant for research to be completed by May 26, 2026. The funding agency is the Shared Services...
- This federal contract award was made by the Shared Services Center, a civilian agency, to The Trustees of Columbia University in the City of New York, operating as Columbia University. The $374,927 grant is for research to "ANALYZE GPM OBSERVATIONS TO IMPROVE OUR UNDERSTANDING OF MIDLATITUDE PRECIPITATION: A PROCESS-OR". The goal is to use data from the Global Precipitation Measurement (GPM) mission to evaluate climate models and reanalyses, and explore the seasonal characteristics...
This federal contract award, NNX16AO16H, was granted by a civilian federal agency to The Trustees of Columbia University in the City of New York, operating through its Sponsored Projects Administration Division. The $117,146.74 contract supports research to better understand the interactions between the biosphere and atmosphere, with the goal of improving weather, climate, and ecological forecasting models. The work will involve analyzing satellite remote sensing data using a novel statistical technique called Multivariate Granger Causality analysis, and comparing the observational results to coupled climate models. This research aims to enhance the representation of land-atmosphere feedback in general circulation models, which is critical for providing accurate forecasts to support community decision-making. The contract is not associated with a set-aside, and there is no indication of major subcontractors. The work aligns with the agency's broader program focused on observing biosphere-atmosphere interactions using satellite data.
