The grant is for research purposes and has an ultimate completion date of October 24, 2023. The University of Wisconsin System, through its University of Wisconsin - Madison division operating as Research...
- The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) has awarded a $400,308.00 grant to the University of Wisconsin System to conduct research on precipitation patterns over the global oceans. This grant, which does not have a set-aside designation, will run through May 31, 2025. The University of Wisconsin System, through its University of Wisconsin - Madison division operating as Research and Sponsored Programs, has a history of conducting federally-funded research, including projects...
- The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) awarded a $242,000 grant to the University of Wisconsin System, operating through its University of Wisconsin - Madison division, for research related to satellite precipitation data and error estimation. The grant aims to address user needs around understanding uncertainties and potential errors in satellite precipitation observations, in order to better integrate this data into decision-making processes and quantify its impacts on...
- This is a $536,383 grant awarded to the University of Wisconsin System, operating through its University of Wisconsin - Madison division, by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Shared Services Center. The goal of this 4-year contract is to monitor, maintain, validate, and refine four algorithms used to process data from the Terra and Aqua MODIS satellite instruments. This includes adjusting cloud detection thresholds, testing backup channels, and conducting limited...
- This is a $150,000.00 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of Wisconsin System for a research project titled "QUANTIFYING SATELLITE PRECIPITATION AND HYDROLOGIC MODEL PARAMETER UNCERTAINTIES TO ADVANCE FLOOD PREDICTION IN UNGAUGED REGIONS". The project will run from December 1, 2024 to November 30, 2027. This award is not set aside and represents open competition. The University of Wisconsin System has a strong track record of...
- This is a $96,781 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of Wisconsin - Madison, operating as Research and Sponsored Programs under the University of Wisconsin System. The grant is for a research project titled "Characterizing Field-Scale Water Use, Phenology and Productivity in Agricultural Landscapes Using Multi Sensor Data Fusion". There is no set-aside designation for this award. The University of Wisconsin System has a history...
This is a $338,004 grant awarded by NASA to the University of Wisconsin System for a research project to re-calibrate water vapor measurements from international geostationary satellites to be consistent with data from the Atmospheric Infrared Sounder (AIRS) instrument. The goal is to generate a long-term climate data record of consistent water vapor measurements that can be used to assess the accuracy of water vapor simulations in reanalysis datasets like MERRA and MERRA-2. The project leverages established inter-calibration techniques between geostationary and polar-orbiting hyperspectral infrared sounders. This grant does not have a set-aside designation. The University of Wisconsin System, a public university system in Wisconsin, is the prime contractor performing this research project for NASA.
