- This is a $423,986 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to Colorado State University (CSU) for research into the coupling between wind-driven surface fluxes and tropical convection using data from the NASA CYGNSS satellite mission. The research aims to investigate the importance of latent heat flux variability for maintaining organized convection in the tropics on a variety of timescales, ranging from the diurnal cycle to the Madden-Julian Oscillation. Key...
- Colorado State University's Sponsored Programs division was awarded a $594,888 research grant by a Civilian agency with a Shared Services Center component on July 15, 2024, to support the project "Using CYGNSS to Understand Convection-Flux Coupling with the Madden-Julian Oscillation and the Tropical Coastal Diurnal Cycle." The work, to be performed in Fort Collins, Colorado, will extend through July 14, 2027. This is a non-set-aside, competitively awarded research grant focused on...
- This federal contract award, valued at $1,213,200.16, was granted by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to Colorado State University (CSU) to conduct research on the impacts of aerosols on the microphysical and dynamical processes of tropical convection and cold pools, and their environmental modulation. The research aims to enhance scientific understanding of these complex aerosol-cloud-environmental interactions, which will help improve representation of these processes...
- This is a $399,897 grant award from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to Colorado State University (CSU) for research on the "Dynamics of Tropical Convective Organization in Weak Balanced Rotation". The grant, which runs through July 2026, will support CSU's expertise in areas like climate science, meteorology, and atmospheric research. As a leading research institution and land-grant university, CSU has a strong track record of securing competitive federal...
- This federal contract award, valued at $520,034.00, was issued by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to Colorado State University (CSU) for a research project focused on improving the performance and applicability of the Goddard Profiling Algorithm (GPROF), a key component of NASA's Global Precipitation Measurement (GPM) mission. The research aims to develop methods for generalizing validation statistics collected in specific regions, allowing GPROF performance to be...
- 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 is a $439,499.25 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Shared Services Center to Colorado State University (CSU) for research related to the Global Precipitation Measurement (GPM) mission. The research has three main objectives: 1) Improving GPM rainfall estimation by linking drop size distribution to environmental variables, 2) Validating GPM rainfall and snowfall estimates against ground-based observations in complex terrain using OLYMPEX data, and 3)...
- This is a $367,584 grant award from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to Colorado State University (CSU) for research in support of the Precipitation Measurement Missions (PMM) program.
