- The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) awarded a $353,970 grant to the University of Massachusetts (UMass) to support research and development activities related to the Surface Water and Ocean Topography (SWOT) satellite mission. The tasks to be completed under this grant include implementing and testing a data assimilation framework, producing and evaluating SWOT Level 4 data products, testing the use of derived runoff products for hydrologic model calibration, and assessing...
- This is a grant award to The Ohio State University from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to conduct research related to improving discharge estimates from the Surface Water and Ocean Topography (SWOT) satellite mission. The research objectives are to: 1) integrate lateral inflows into a SWOT discharge algorithm, 2) integrate lake/reservoir dynamics into a SWOT discharge algorithm, 3) develop a SWOT modeling application for community water resources planning and flood...
- This is a research grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Shared Services Center to the University of Washington to determine if river discharge and subsurface river dynamics can be described from a Surface Water and Ocean Topography (SWOT) measurement of the surface height anomaly within an estuary and at the river mouth. The $103,758.67 grant involves a laboratory experiment, analysis of field data, and development of an analytical model to predict...
- This is a $409,679.64 research grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to The Ohio State University (OSU) to support the development and validation of algorithms for estimating river discharge in the Arctic using data from the upcoming Surface Water and Ocean Topography (SWOT) mission and existing ArcticDEM elevation data. The grant will fund work to characterize the accuracy of river height, width, and slope measurements from ArcticDEM, evaluate flow law models...
- This is a $736,069 grant awarded to the University System of New Hampshire (USNH), through its University of New Hampshire (UNH) division, by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) for research related to the Surface Water and Ocean Topography (SWOT) satellite mission. The research investigates new approaches to account for within-swath variability of surface wind, sea state, and the Ka-band sea state range bias on SWOT range noise and bias at spatial scales of 5-120 km. This...
- This is a $150,790.00 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of Illinois to support research on integrating reservoirs into the Surface Water and Ocean Topography (SWOT) mission's global surface water storage and discharge monitoring. The grant has an ultimate completion date of August 13, 2025 and does not have a set-aside designation. As a prime contractor, the University of Illinois has extensive experience delivering research, products,...
- This is a research grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Shared Services Center to the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), a private research university. The grant, valued at $134,729.03, is for a research project investigating the long-term changes in terrestrial drainage systems and landscape evolution driven by tectonic and climatic forces. The project aims to bridge the gap between the detailed understanding of modern river dynamics and the...
- This federal contract award, NNX16AH84G, was granted by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to The Trustees of Princeton University, Office of Research and Project Administration, to develop algorithms and modeling systems to retrieve river discharge estimates globally from the Surface Water and Ocean Topography (SWOT) mission. The overarching goal is to create a forecast assimilation system that utilizes the Catchment-based Macro-Scale Floodplain (CAMA) Flood River...
- The University of Massachusetts (UMass) was awarded a $779,966.00 Grant for Research contract from NASA's Shared Services Center to develop, implement, and maintain a cloud-based, open-source software system called "Confluence" that will produce the parameters needed by NASA for the official discharge product for every river in the SWOT River Database. The contract, which has no set-aside designation, will fund the deployment of five mass conserved flow law inversion (MCFLI)...
