- This federal contract award is for a $134,999.99 training grant provided by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration Shared Services Center to the University of Maryland, College Park. The award supports research into improving hurricane forecasting by assimilating precipitation data from NASA's Integrated Multi-satellitE Retrievals for GPM (IMERG) into weather models. The goal is to develop new methods for transforming precipitation data into Gaussian variables and using ensemble-based...
- This federal contract award, identified as NNX16AE20G, was granted by the Shared Services Center (part of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration) to the University of Maryland, College Park. The $453,604.00 grant is for research focused on using data from the Tropical Rainfall Measuring Mission (TRMM) and Global Precipitation Measurement (GPM) satellites to provide the best possible estimates of mean surface precipitation over the TRMM/GPM era. The research will examine seasonal,...
- This federal contract, awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of Maryland, College Park, supports research to improve precipitation estimates from cross-track passive microwave sensors in the Global Precipitation Measurement (GPM) satellite constellation. The $264,077.03 grant will contribute to NASA's Precipitation Measurement Mission by providing more comprehensive precipitation observations from operational satellite instruments. The research...
- This federal contract award, valued at $261,089.00, was granted by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of Maryland, College Park (UMD) to conduct research combining high-resolution satellite observations from the Global Precipitation Measurement (GPM) mission with simulations from the Global Cloud-Resolving (or Cloud-Permitting) Model (GCRM). The goal is to improve understanding of the characteristics of precipitation systems and precipi. UMD is a prominent...
- This federal contract award, valued at $465,633.03, was granted by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of Maryland, College Park. The contract is a grant for research to quantify the effects of various latitudes, seasons, and climate conditions on certain parameters. The results will be incorporated into the final version of an Algorithm Theoretical Basis Document (ATBD) and User Guide. The University of Maryland, College Park is a state-controlled...
- This federal contract award (NNX16AF17G) was granted by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of Maryland, College Park for a research project to test the hypothesis that merging microwave and gravimetric satellite measurements with an advanced land surface model can improve the accuracy and reduce uncertainty in estimating snow water equivalent, soil moisture, groundwater, and terrestrial water storage across regional and continental scales. The...
- This is a $821,671.00 grant award from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of Maryland, College Park (UMD) for a joint modeling project between NASA's Goddard Global Modeling and Assimilation Office (GMAO) and Mesoscale Atmospheric Modeling Group. The award, which has a period of performance through May 26, 2026, is for research related to this proposed modeling effort. The University of Maryland is performing this work as the prime contractor, and the...
- This federal contract award, ID 80NSSC20K1415, was granted to the University of Maryland, College Park (UMD) by the Shared Services Center, a civilian agency, to develop cross-component modeling and data assimilation capabilities for the Integrated Earth System Analysis (IESA). The $75,452.00 grant will fund efforts to directly assimilate satellite altimetry and atmospheric microwave radiometer data into the ocean and atmospheric components of the IESA prototype, with the goal of improving...
- This federal contract award, with ID NNX16AG34G, was granted by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of Maryland, College Park. The $357,819 grant will fund research to assess and improve the accuracy of global warming projections provided by archived results from Atmosphere-Ocean General Circulation Models (AO-GCMs).
