- The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) awarded a $864,006.00 grant to the Regents of the University of Michigan Office of Research and Sponsored Projects, doing business as the University of Michigan, for the development and demonstration of a wideband autocorrelation radiometer receiver to directly measure terrestrial snow and ice accumulation. This technology is intended to improve upon existing passive microwave methods for quantifying global snow pack, which can be...
- This is a $150,000.00 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the Regents of the University of Michigan for the development of a self-calibrating magneto-inductive sensor for use in space-based satellite constellations. The contract has a period of performance from February 27, 2024 to February 26, 2027 and does not have a set-aside designation. The University of Michigan, a prominent U.S. state government-owned educational institution located in Ann Arbor,...
- The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) awarded a $527,537 grant to the Regents of the University of Michigan, doing business as the University of Michigan, to develop novel arrays of feedhorn coupled, multichroic polarimeters. This technology will enable highly sensitive measurement and characterization of the cosmic microwave background (CMB) polarization, which has the potential to reveal evidence of gravitational waves produced during the inflationary epoch of the early...
- The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) awarded a $120,000.00 grant for research to the Regents of the University of Michigan Office of Research and Sponsored Projects, doing business as the University of Michigan. The grant will advance the development of the Ultra-Wideband Software-Defined Microwave Radiometer (UWBRAD) instrument, which was previously deployed on a tower in Antarctica and during an airborne campaign over Greenland. The research aims to enhance the use of...
- This $88,653.72 federal grant award from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Shared Services Center to the Regents of the University of Colorado (University of Colorado) aims to quantify the accuracy and reliability of global navigation satellite system (GNSS) data for space weather monitoring and atmospheric retrievals. The University will evaluate how the GNSS vendor treats ionospheric contributions to excess phase, which serves as a remote diagnostic of space weather. Key...
