- The University of Rhode Island (URI) has been awarded a $99,977 grant from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to conduct research on the effects of circadian rhythm disruption and gravitational disturbance during a simulated lunar mission. The research aims to understand the consequences for muscle function during and after the mission. This grant award is not associated with a set-aside contract. URI, a public land-grant research university, has a history of securing...
- This federal contract was awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Shared Services Center to the University of California, Santa Barbara (UCSB) on September 1, 2018. The $135,000.00 training grant seeks to improve estimates of oceanic net primary production (NPP) by assimilating global-scale in-situ oceanographic tracer data with satellite-based observations. The proposed work aims to produce biogeochemically-consistent NPP estimates that can support NASA Earth science...
This is a Training Grant contract awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Shared Services Center to the University of Rhode Island (URI) on September 1, 2018. The $112,317.89 contract supports research to understand how rising atmospheric carbon dioxide concentrations are impacting the ocean's biological carbon pump. The study aims to improve estimates of net community production, a key metric for the biological pump, using in-situ and satellite data collected during NASA's EXport Processes in the Ocean from RemoTe Sensing (EXPORTS) field campaigns in the North Pacific and North Atlantic Oceans. The goals are to leverage a wave-powered profiling platform to better characterize diurnal changes in dissolved oxygen, compare autonomous platform-based net community production estimates, and evaluate the accuracy of satellite-derived net community production. No set-aside designation is noted for this award. As a public research university, URI has a history of providing research, technology development, and analytical services to federal agencies including NASA.
