- This is a $355,032.00 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the Regents of the University of Colorado, acting through the University of Colorado's Office of Contracts and Grants Division. The goal of this Solar Irradiance Science Team (NNH20ZDA001N-SIST) proposal effort is to improve the full mission solar spectral irradiance (SSI) data record of the Compact Spectral Irradiance Monitor (CSIM) instrument. This will be accomplished by using comparisons...
- 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....
- The Regents of the University of Colorado received a $5.97 million research grant from a federal civilian agency awarded on September 17, 2018, with an ultimate completion date of December 31, 2024. The contract supports the development and demonstration of the Compact Total Irradiance Monitor (CTIM), a next-generation instrument designed to measure total solar irradiance (TSI) from a 6U CubeSat platform. This initiative addresses a critical climate measurement requirement identified in the...
- 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...
- This is a $443,854 grant awarded by NASA to the University Corporation for Atmospheric Research (UCAR) to develop and flight-qualify a low-cost distributed network of CubeSat instruments to monitor solar spectral irradiance. The goal is to maintain continuous measurements of this critical input to climate and atmospheric models, addressing potential coverage gaps between the current Solar Radiation and Climate Experiment (SORCE) and the planned NOAA Total Solar Irradiance Sensor (TSIS)...
- 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 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...
