- This is a $570,920 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of Maryland, College Park (UMD) on October 25, 2019 for research examining the relationship between aerosol loading and the vertical structure and intensity of deep convection, lightning, and lightning-produced nitrogen oxides. The project will leverage data from NASA's CloudSat and CALIPSO satellites, the Geostationary Lightning Mapper (GLM), and meteorological reanalysis products to...
- The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) awarded a $158,493.03 grant for research to the University of Washington on January 30, 2019. This grant is a follow-on study to a previous NOAA grant, in which the University of Washington participated in the NOAA GOES-R Cal/Val Team to validate and analyze data from the new space-based NOAA lightning location instruments, the Geostationary Lightning Mapper (GLM) and the Lightning Imaging Sensor (LIS). The research involves comparing...
- This is a $587,514.00 grant awarded by the Shared Services Center of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of Maryland, College Park (UMD) on July 13, 2023. The purpose of the grant is to improve the parameterization of lightning flashes in the Goddard Earth Observing System (GEOS) models using data from the Geostationary Lightning Mapper (GLM) on GOES satellites and machine learning techniques. The award has a completion date of July 12, 2026. UMD, a...
- This is a $617,518.00 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Shared Services Center to the University of Maryland, College Park (UMD) on June 16, 2021. The grant is for research to address the factor of four uncertainty in the mean amount of lightning NOX (LNOX) produced per flash, which affects the understanding of its impacts on upper tropospheric ozone production. The grant has a completion date of June 14, 2025 and does not have a set-aside designation. UMD...
- This federal contract award was granted by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to Colorado State University (CSU) to conduct research on the use of spaceborne lightning observations to improve satellite rainfall estimation and global lightning modeling. The $404,302.16 grant will fund three main research objectives: 1) validating lightning flash rate estimates from the International Space Station Lightning Imaging Sensor (ISS-LIS) and the Geostationary Operational...
- This federal contract award, NNX17AH66G, was granted to Texas A&M University by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Shared Services Center. The $317,692.31 grant will fund research to explore relationships between lightning and environmental conditions using satellite data from the Tropical Rainfall Measuring Mission (TRMM) and Lightning Imaging Sensor (LIS) on the International Space Station, as well as environmental data from the Modern-Era Retrospective analysis for...
