- This federal contract award, NNX16AH60G, was granted to the University Corporation for Atmospheric Research (UCAR) by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to conduct research on ocean-atmosphere interaction across a range of spatial and temporal scales. The $227,653.00 grant aims to re-examine the relative contributions of atmospheric weather and oceanic mesoscale processes to variability in air-sea energy exchange. The study will leverage high-resolution satellite...
- This federal contract award was granted to the University of Washington (UW) by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Shared Services Center. The $838,669.00 grant supports research to analyze satellite altimetric sea-surface height data and improve understanding and predictability of mid-latitude air-sea interaction on seasonal to interannual timescales. The work aims to refine the relationship between sea-surface height and upper ocean heat content, quantify drivers of...
- This is a training grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Shared Services Center to the University of California San Diego (UCSD) Scripps Institution of Oceanography Division. The purpose of the $105,000.00 grant is to examine the variability and dynamics of the volume transport through the southern entrance of the Solomon Sea in the Pacific Ocean, using a combination of satellite altimetry, surface wind data, and in-situ oceanographic measurements. This...
- The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) awarded a $343,807 grant to the University of Georgia Research Foundation, Inc. (UGA Research Foundation) to conduct research on transport processes in the Labrador Sea. This research aims to quantify the relative importance of different mechanisms driving the offshore export of meltwater from the Greenland Ice Sheet, and how this may influence stratification and climate dynamics in the region. The grant does not have a set-aside...
- This federal contract award was made by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Shared Services Center to the University of Georgia Research Foundation, Inc. (UGA Research Foundation), a non-profit organization that manages sponsored programs at the University of Georgia. The $1,148,302.00 grant is for a research project investigating the role of urbanization in precipitation processes, which has been a longstanding scholarly question. The research will utilize field...
- This federal grant was awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Shared Services Center to the University of Washington (UW) to conduct an in-depth study of (sub)mesoscale ocean variability. The overarching goal is to better characterize surface density variability, particularly the role of salinity, across the submesoscale to mesoscale range. The $649,021 grant will leverage satellite observations, such as sea surface temperature and ocean color, along with in situ...
- This federal contract award to the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) under the Office of Research Administration is for a research study to investigate the variability and impacts of the Southern Hemisphere super gyre, a newly identified deep ocean pathway that connects the subtropical gyres of the three major ocean basins. The $621,055.24 grant was awarded on April 4, 2016 by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) and has a performance period ending on April 3,...
- This federal contract award, with ID NNX15AQ60G, was granted by the Shared Services Center of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to Earth And Space Research (ESR), a nonprofit research institute specializing in oceanographic research. The $253,533.00 grant supports a research project with three main objectives: 1) evaluating existing resources for estimating mixed-layer properties, 2) examining the impact of simulated satellite mixed-layer observations on ocean state...
- The University of California San Diego's Scripps Institution of Oceanography received a $479,360 research grant from NASA (through a Civilian Shared Services Center) with a completion date of December 31, 2026. This non-set-aside award supports oceanographic research aligned with NASA's Physical Oceanography Program theme "Ocean Physics of a Warming Earth." The research focuses on understanding salinity variability in ocean dynamics and thermodynamics and its connection to the global...
- This federal contract award, with ID 80NSSC20K1636, was granted to the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA), doing business as the Office of Research Administration, by the Shared Services Center of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA). The $78,699.87 grant is for research to understand and resolve the ocean dynamics near and within fjords, which is crucial for constraining the ocean-driven melting of the Greenland Ice Sheet. The award has an ultimate completion...
This award is a training grant from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Shared Services Center to the University of Georgia Research Foundation, Inc. (UGA Research Foundation), a non-profit organization. The $127,330 contract supports research into how El Niño-Southern Oscillation (ENSO) and other climate variability impact sea surface temperature fronts in the California and Humboldt Current Systems. The research will leverage satellite data to analyze spatial and temporal variability of temperature fronts and their connection to wind patterns, upwelling, and temperature anomalies. This work aims to improve understanding of how physical ocean processes are linked to climate variability. There is no set-aside designation indicated for this contract, which was awarded on September 1, 2018 and has a performance period ending February 28, 2022.
