- This $152,084.02 federal grant was awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the Universities Space Research Association (USRA), a nonprofit organization, to enhance the GEOS-5 subseasonal to seasonal (S2S) forecast capabilities by integrating ocean biogeochemistry into the current forecasting system. USRA will develop a forecast system for global ocean biology using the NASA Ocean Biogeochemical Model (NOBM) already implemented into the GEOS-5 Earth System Model....
- This is a grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Shared Services Center to the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution, a private non-profit research organization. The $1,429,983.00 grant is for the Exports Processes in the Ocean from Remote Sensing (EXPORTS) program, which aims to develop a predictive mechanistic understanding of the export and fate of fixed carbon from global ocean primary production. The project will involve large-scale field campaigns using...
- This federal contract award was granted by NASA to the University of California, Santa Barbara (UCSB) to conduct a pilot study for the EXPORTS field campaign. The goal of EXPORTS is to gain a predictive understanding of the export and fate of global ocean net primary production. Under this $762,291 grant, UCSB will collect and collate available global ocean ecosystem and carbon cycling field observations, construct EXPORTS data products and diagrams, and evaluate the use of the mined data for...
- This federal contract award to the Universities Space Research Association (USRA), a nonprofit research organization, consists of data assimilation experiments designed to test the impact of assimilating Soil Moisture Active Passive (SMAP) satellite data on land surface model (LSM) fields and coupled numerical weather prediction (NWP) forecasts. The $283,037.75 grant from the NASA Shared Services Center will enable USRA to conduct standalone Noah LSM simulations and coupled Noah-Weather Research...
- This federal contract award, with ID 80NSSC21K1065, was granted by the Shared Services Center, a civilian agency, to the Universities Space Research Association (USRA), a nonprofit research organization. The $109,043 grant is for a research project that will analyze data from the OCO-2 and OCO-3 missions to improve understanding of anthropogenic carbon dioxide emissions, including attribution to socioeconomic sectors. This work does not have a set-aside designation. USRA has extensive experience...
- This award is a $76,462 grant to the Universities Space Research Association (USRA) for research on tropospheric ozone and its formation. USRA, a nonprofit research organization, will conduct this work for NASA's Shared Services Center. The grant is not associated with a larger contract vehicle and does not have a set-aside designation. As a leading provider of scientific research and engineering services to federal agencies like NASA, USRA leverages its expertise in Earth science, climate...
- This federal contract award to Universities Space Research Association (USRA), a nonprofit research organization, is for the development of an improved algorithm to retrieve high-quality aerosol extinction profiles and particle size information from measurements collected by the Ozone Mapping and Profiler Suite (OMPS) Limb Profiler instrument on the Suomi National Polar-orbiting Partnership (Suomi-NPP) satellite. The $349,655.88 grant, awarded by NASA's Shared Services Center, supports...
- This federal contract award, valued at $63,575.50, was granted by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the Universities Space Research Association (USRA), a nonprofit research organization. The contract is for research and analysis that will address an Earth System Science Societal Benefit Area through the use of NASA technology, models, and data sets to benefit public health. The contract is a grant for research and does not have a set-aside designation, reflecting USRA's...
- This is a $169,213.25 grant award from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the Universities Space Research Association (USRA), a nonprofit research organization, to address uncertainties in aerosol-cloud interactions and their impact on climate models. The project aims to develop two novel global Level-2 products from satellite sensor data that will quantify the radiative effects of absorbing aerosols above clouds and provide aerosol-corrected cloud optical depth...
- The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) awarded a $410,512.94 grant to the Universities Space Research Association (USRA) to conduct research on improving the simulation of Antarctic sea ice changes in the NASA Goddard Earth Observing System Model, Version 5 (GEOS-5). The proposed work involves using coupled replay simulations and observations to quantify the impact of atmospheric and oceanic processes on Antarctic sea ice variability and trends. The research aims to address...
This federal contract award to the Universities Space Research Association (USRA), a nonprofit research organization, is for an Observation-System Simulation Experiments (OSSES) and Seasonal Forecasts project to support the EXPORTS (Export Processes in the Ocean from Remote Sensing) program. The $3,681,387.14 grant will assess observational strategies to improve understanding of the export of organic matter from the ocean surface to the deep ocean and how this flux may change under different environmental conditions. The project will leverage expertise at the NASA Global Modeling and Assimilation Office (GMAO) to conduct simulation experiments and develop short- and long-term forecasts of relevant biogeochemical parameters. This work will help inform planning for future EXPORTS field campaigns. The contract does not have a set-aside designation.
