- The Regents of the University of Colorado, through its Office of Contracts and Grants Division, was awarded a $4,490,047.60 grant from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to develop and demonstrate a Compact Solar Spectral Irradiance Monitor (CSIM) CubeSat mission. The goal is to provide continuity of key solar irradiance measurements and mitigate potential gaps in observational records. The CSIM mission builds on the University's prior work advancing ESTO-funded...
- This federal contract award from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) is a $364,058.29 grant provided to the Regents of the University of Colorado, Boulder for a 3-year research project. The grant will fund the University's efforts to characterize the performance and long-term stability of solar irradiance measurement instruments, including the Total Solar Irradiance Sensor (TSIS) and Compact Spectral Irradiance Monitor (CSIM), to improve understanding of solar variability....
- This is a $355,728.70 grant awarded by NASA to the University of Colorado's Office of Contracts and Grants Division to study long-term variations in solar spectral irradiance (SSI) over solar cycles 21 through 24. The objectives are to separate solar cycle variability from instrumental trends in past SSI satellite measurements, produce a more accurate composite SSI record, and combine it with new SSI measurements expected from the upcoming Total Solar Irradiance Sensor (TSIS) and Compact...
- This is a $234,720.19 grant awarded by NASA to The University Corporation, a non-profit organization affiliated with California State University, Northridge (CSUN). The grant addresses NASA's initiative to develop consistent multi-instrument/multi-platform space-based data sets of solar irradiance, both total (TSI) and spectral (SSI). The project aims to use ground- and space-based proxies, along with space-based solar irradiance data sets, to help define relationships that can support the...
- This is a grant award from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of Colorado (CU) for $343,439.97. The award is for research focused on the recalibration and reevaluation of the Solar Radiation and Climate Experiment (SORCE) Spectral Irradiance Monitor (SIM) data record. CU will reanalyze laboratory measurement data to improve the accuracy and temperature-dependent characterization of the SORCE SIM instrument, which provides critical solar spectral irradiance...
- The University of Colorado was awarded a $499,296.68 grant from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to develop a detailed mission concept for a next-generation solar irradiance observation system. The award is part of NASA's Instrument/Measurement Concept Demonstration (IIP-ICD) program, which aims to advance novel instrument and measurement technologies. The University of Colorado will utilize its expertise in space physics, climate science, and aerospace engineering to...
- The Regents of the University of Colorado, on behalf of its Office of Contracts and Grants Division, was awarded a $389,940.42 grant by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to enhance solar irradiance variability models. The project aims to incorporate data from the new GOES-16 satellite to increase reliability, increase spectral resolution to enable more detailed atmospheric radiative transfer modeling, and develop alternative models based on total solar irradiance...
- This federal contract award from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) was granted to the University of Colorado, Boulder to produce a solar spectral irradiance (SSI) record suitable for whole atmosphere chemistry-climate model (CCM) transient studies over solar cycles 23 and 24. The $244,538.87 grant will utilize data from the SORCE mission's SIM and SOLSTICE instruments to generate a broad-spectrum SSI dataset compliant with total solar irradiance measurements. This SSI...
- This federal contract award from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) was granted to the University of Colorado, a U.S. state government entity and institution of higher learning. The $239,975.76 grant is for the University to establish the magnitude and temporal structure of the Sun's irradiance variability across ultraviolet, visible, and infrared wavelengths over time scales from months to decades. The goal is to consolidate this data into an improved proxy model of...
- This is a $436,834.68 federal grant award from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University Corporation for Atmospheric Research (UCAR), a non-profit consortium of over 115 universities that manages the National Center for Atmospheric Research (NCAR). The purpose of the grant is to constrain the lower limits of solar irradiance and create a grand minimum scenario based on a well-characterized photospheric magnetic field distribution using a small-scale dynamo...
