The $484,367.00 grant is for a research project aimed at improving estimates of ice mass balance in Antarctica by combining observations from NASA's ICESat/OIB/ICESat-2 laser altimetry missions and the Gravity Recovery and Climate Experiment (GRACE)/GRACE-Follow On (GRACE-FO)...
- This $123,817.67 federal grant award to the University of California, Irvine (UC Irvine) was made by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to conduct research on understanding changes in the global carbon cycle in forests under a changing climate. The research aims to improve models and predictions related to carbon sequestration and release in forest ecosystems. There is no set-aside designation for this grant. As a public research university with extensive expertise across...
- This federal contract award from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) was granted to the University of California, Irvine (UC Irvine) to conduct gravity sounding research on glaciers in southern Greenland. The $984,614 grant will enable UC Irvine to employ a novel approach using high-resolution helicopter-borne gravity data to map glacier thickness at a spatial resolution of 500 meters with a precision of 50 meters. This data will be integrated with other sources, including...
- This federal contract award NNX16AO38H was granted by the Shared Services Center, a civilian agency, to the University of California Irvine (UC Irvine) for a research project to investigate the relationships between terrestrial water storage, ecosystem activity, vegetation, and carbon fluxes. The $120,000.00 contract does not have a set-aside designation, as UC Irvine was selected based on its research capabilities. The award will contribute to the International Land Model Benchmarking (ILAMB)...
- This federal contract award, with ID 80NSSC24K0038, was issued by the Shared Services Center, a civilian federal agency, to the University of California Irvine (UC Irvine) for a research project titled "DETERMINING THE ROLE OF EXTREME PRECIPITATION EVENTS ON SURFACE MASS BALANCE IN EAST ANTARCTICA FROM ICESAT/GRACE DATA, CLIMATE MODELS, AND AUTOMATED WEATHER STATIONS". The $150,000.00 grant-funded contract has a completion date of October 3, 2026 and does not have a set-aside...
- This is a $946,783 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of California, Irvine (UCI) on June 20, 2024. The grant, titled "IMPROVING ICE SHEET MASS BALANCE ESTIMATES USING LASER RANGING INTERFEROMETER (LRI) AND MICROWAVE INSTRUMENT (MWI) GRACE-FO AND GRACE DATA", is for research to improve estimates of ice sheet mass balance using data from the Gravity Recovery and Climate Experiment (GRACE) and GRACE Follow-On (GRACE-FO) missions....
- This is a federal grant award from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of California, Irvine (UC Irvine) for research on the impacts of changes in rainfall patterns across the Amazon region. The $893,268.00 grant aims to study how water deficits in the Amazon are affecting both human and natural systems, particularly in the areas of river transportation and agricultural production. The grant has an ultimate completion date of December 31, 2025. UC Irvine, a...
This federal contract award from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of California Irvine (UC Irvine) is valued at $99,298.57 and has a completion date of March 25, 2020. The project will apply Gravity Recovery and Climate Experiment (GRACE) satellite data on terrestrial water storage to better understand the impact of hydro-climatic constraints on ecosystem productivity at a global scale. The research will integrate GRACE data with vegetation indices, solar-induced fluorescence, and in-situ CO2 flux observations to characterize the relationships between water availability, climate factors, and vegetation growth. This work supports NASA's goal of detecting and predicting changes in Earth's ecological and biogeochemical cycles. The contract has no set-aside designation, as UC Irvine competed for the award based on its research capabilities as a leading public research university.
