This federal contract award to the University of California, Santa Barbara (UCSB) aims to quantify the temporal and spatial variability of snow and ice in High Mountain Asia (HMA) using satellite remote sensing from 1985 to the present. The $185,877.84 grant will create a 35+ year daily record of snow/ice surface properties and mass estimates, including snow water equivalent (SWE), snow/ice melt, and sublimation, at 500 m spatial resolution. This extensive data set will serve as a unique...

This $133,323.40 research grant was awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Shared Services Center to the University of California, Santa Barbara (UCSB). The research aims to understand the impact of atmospheric rivers on local precipitation regimes in high mountain Asia, using satellite products, global reanalysis, and regional model simulations over a 35-year period. The goal is to explore the climatology of atmospheric rivers in the region and examine their physical and dynamical contributions to local precipitation and resulting glacial melt, which are critical water resources for a large population in southern and central Asia. There was no set-aside designation for this research grant, which has a completion date of March 18, 2022. UCSB, a public research university, has a history of conducting fundamental and unclassified research across scientific disciplines under federal prime and sub-contracts with agencies such as the Department of Defense, Department of Energy, and National Science Foundation.
