- This federal contract award, valued at $150,000.00, was granted by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of California, Santa Barbara (UCSB) to conduct research on the South American Low-Level Jet (SALLJ) and its impact on precipitation. The contract is a grant for research, with no set-aside designation, and the ultimate completion date is October 3, 2026. UCSB, operating through its Office of Research, is a public research university with expertise in areas...
- This is a grant award from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of California, Santa Barbara (UCSB) to continue fieldwork and data analysis for maintaining and improving Aqua Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) ocean color remote sensing algorithms. The work, titled "Plumes and Blooms: A Multi-Decadal Coastal Bio-Optical Time-Series and Retrospective Data Analysis", was initially funded under NASA's Research Opportunities in Space...
- This is a $260,658.25 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of California, Santa Barbara (UCSB) to conduct research on quantifying the ocean's biological carbon pump using a combination of satellite and in-situ oceanographic observations. The work aims to develop models that will improve how NASA uses its resources to monitor and quantify the ocean's carbon cycle. This grant does not have a set-aside designation, indicating it was awarded...
This federal contract award, valued at $120,000.00, was issued by the Shared Services Center (an agency of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration) to the University of California, Santa Barbara (UCSB) to further elucidate the linkage between in situ optical signatures and phytoplankton community structure, as well as develop a relationship between these optical signatures and the non-photosynthetic microbial community. The research aims to advance the use of ocean color remote sensing to monitor global marine microbial diversity patterns, which is critical for understanding global primary production, biogeochemical cycling, and ecosystem structuring. This contract is not set aside and is part of NASA's Earth Science Division's efforts to detect and predict changes in Earth's ecological and biogeochemical cycles. UCSB, as the prime contractor, has extensive expertise in areas such as climate research, biotechnology, and defense-related basic research, and frequently partners with other leading research institutions on federally funded projects.
