This federal contract award, valued at $93,594.06, was issued by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration Shared Services Center to the University of Washington. The contract is a training grant and aims to utilize satellite-based hydrologic observations to study temporal variations in water stored in reservoirs globally. This research supports a key science question for the upcoming Surface Water and Ocean Topography (SWOT) satellite mission, which will provide unprecedented...
The National Aeronautic and Space Administration (NASA) awarded a $105,000 grant to the University of Washington under contract 21-SMDSS21-0029 to support research exploring synergies between measurements from the Surface Water and Ocean Topography (SWOT) satellite mission and airborne altimetry. Specifically, the grant will fund work investigating how data from SWOT's wide-swath interferometry can improve hydrologic studies of surface water dynamics when combined with measurements from the...
This federal contract award to the University of Washington (UW) provides $668,427.00 in funding for research related to the Surface Water and Ocean Topography (SWOT) mission. SWOT is a joint satellite mission between NASA, the French space agency CNES, the Canadian Space Agency, and the UK Space Agency that will observe the 2-D structure of sea surface height on 15-120 km wavelength scales, potentially transforming understanding of ocean dynamics at these scales. The contract, awarded by the...
This is a $824,494.00 grant awarded by the Shared Services Center, a civilian federal agency, to the University of Washington for a research project titled "QUANTIFYING THE NET IMPACT OF THE SWOT MISSION IN IMPROVING OUR UNDERSTANDING OF HUMAN REGULATION OF SURFACE WATER AROUND THE WORLD." The contract has a period of performance from September 15, 2024 to September 14, 2028 and is not a set-aside award. The University of Washington is the prime contractor and will be conducting the...
This federal contract award, identified as NNX16AH65G, was granted by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Shared Services Center to the University of Washington. The $352,925.31 grant will fund research to quantify ocean variability at 15-100 km wavelengths, assess how submesoscale to mesoscale processes will be captured by the Surface Water and Ocean Topography (SWOT) mission, and develop sampling strategies for SWOT validation and integrated regional observational...

This federal contract award from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Shared Services Center is a $448,437 grant to the University of Washington (UW) to provide three key services to support the Surface Water and Ocean Topography (SWOT) Science Definition Team (SDT) in its second term from 2016-2020. The first service is ground-truthing of SWOT elevation and river width data over the Indus and Ganges-Brahmaputra river basins in Asia. The second service is providing SWOT hydrologic simulator investigations to assist the SWOT Discharge Algorithm Working Group. The third service aims to improve SWOT applications for water management by leveraging synergies between SWOT and other satellite measurements. This grant does not have a set-aside designation and is intended to help prepare the SWOT SDT to address key hydrology objectives after 2020. As a leading research university, UW has a strong track record of securing federal contract and grant awards to support a range of government agencies and programs.
