- This is a $269,444.70 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of Illinois to develop new satellite-based algorithms for measuring crop productivity using solar-induced chlorophyll fluorescence (SIF) data from the NASA Orbiting Carbon Observatory-2 (OCO-2) satellite. The goal is to enable more accurate and timely monitoring and forecasting of agricultural productivity to address rising food and biofuel demands, as well as climate change impacts....
- This is a $187,826.07 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the California Institute of Technology (Caltech) for research on the response of terrestrial carbon uptake to seasonal warming, soil thaw, and water availability across North America. The research aims to understand how changes in seasonal phenology, carbon dioxide (CO2) exchange, and atmospheric CO2 concentrations have evolved over the past decade, particularly in climate-sensitive semi-arid and...
- This is a $406,034.47 cooperative agreement awarded by NASA to the California Institute of Technology (Caltech) to conduct research on the relationship between satellite measurements of solar-induced fluorescence (SIF) and vegetation reflectance, and their link to gross primary productivity (GPP) in northern boreal forests. The research aims to improve understanding of the ecophysiological mechanisms driving seasonal changes in plant photosynthesis and carbon cycling within these ecosystems....
- This is a $478,909.53 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the California Institute of Technology (Caltech) for research related to the Tropospheric Monitoring Instrument (TROPOMI) on the Sentinel-5P satellite. The grant is for a 5-year period from July 1, 2015 to June 30, 2021. The work will involve prototyping the TROPOMI retrieval algorithm, conducting initial data analysis, and performing operational data processing of the TROPOMI data. The research...
- This is a $679,366.21 grant for research awarded by the Shared Services Center, a civilian agency, to the California Institute of Technology (Caltech). The contract has no set-aside designation. The proposed work will focus on improving the data quality and scientific output of the Orbiting Carbon Observatory-2/3 (OCO-2/3) Solar-Induced Fluorescence (SIF) data products. This includes enhancing the understanding of the SIF data's dependence on sun-sensor geometry and using the growing OCO-2 SIF...
- This is a $410,335 grant awarded by the Shared Services Center of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the California Institute of Technology (Caltech) for research related to the Orbiting Carbon Observatory (OCO) instruments. The research aims to improve the interpretation of spectral observations from the OCO instruments by developing state-of-the-art knowledge of carbon dioxide, oxygen, and interferant absorption coefficients. The grant has an ultimate completion date...
- The California Institute of Technology (Caltech) was awarded a $289,222 research grant by NASA's Shared Services Center on October 18, 2019, for the Carbon Monitoring System in Mountains (CMS-MOUNTAINS) project. This initiative leverages satellite-based solar-induced fluorescence technology to advance understanding of forest drought and mortality patterns across the western United States. The research will be conducted at Caltech's Pasadena, California campus, with completion scheduled for...
- This is a $277,449.73 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the California Institute of Technology (Caltech) to deliver the annual global methane budget and its uncertainties from January 2018 through December 2021. The grant will utilize data, tools, and expertise built from previous NASA-funded research to provide a detailed accounting of methane sources and sinks, including partitioning by source type (e.g., fossil fuels, wetlands, agriculture) and the...
- The California Institute of Technology (Caltech) received a $825,766 grant award from the Shared Services Center to support the "Extending the Total Carbon Column Observing Network to 20 Years" research initiative.
