This federal contract is a $135,000.00 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to Purdue University, a non-profit institution of higher education and research located in West Lafayette, Indiana. The grant will fund a project to investigate and understand the impact, uncertainty, and value of using satellite products like Global Precipitation Measurement (GPM)/Integrated Multi-satellitE Retrievals for GPM (IMERG), Tropical Rainfall Measuring Mission (TRMM)/TRMM...
This is a $113,113.55 federal contract awarded by NASA to the University of Oklahoma to study the inner core dynamics of tropical cyclones. The research aims to better understand the role of vortex Rossby waves in tropical cyclone intensity changes and precipitation distribution, using data from NASA instrumentation including the ER-2 Doppler radar, High-Altitude Imaging Wind and Rain Airborne Profiler, dropsondes, and the Tropical Rainfall Measuring Mission satellite. The findings will be...
This federal contract award is a grant for $133,281.75 from the U.S. government's Shared Services Center agency to Purdue University, a prominent 1862 Land Grant College and not-for-profit educational institution located in West Lafayette, Indiana. The grant is for research related to tornadoes, which are one of nature's most hazardous phenomena causing extensive property damage and casualties. The contract has an ultimate completion date of August 31, 2024 and was awarded on September 1,...
This federal contract award, ID 80NSSC20K1647, was granted to Purdue University by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to conduct research aligned with the agency's goal of improving weather and extreme weather event prediction capabilities using satellite data. The $133,245.11 grant, awarded on September 1, 2020, will support this research effort through August 31, 2023. Purdue University is a well-established prime contractor and grant recipient, supporting a wide range of...
This federal contract award to Purdue University, a non-profit educational institution, is for a NASA Earth Venture Class mission called CYGNSS (Cyclone Global Navigation Satellite System). The $746,686 grant is for research to improve the assimilation of CYGNSS delay-Doppler map (DDM) observations into hurricane forecast models. This will involve extending empirical models relating DDMs to wind speed and direction, and demonstrating the direct assimilation of DDM data into a standard...
This federal contract award, valued at $187,499.82, was granted by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to Colorado State University (CSU) to support research on improving operational forecasts of rapidly intensifying hurricane events. The work will focus on expanding the capabilities of the Hurricane version of the Goddard Profiling Algorithm (H-GPROF) by adding estimates of latent heating, exploring the use of H-GPROF data as a predictor of rapid intensification, developing...
This federal contract award to Purdue University is for $111,981.00 to provide non-personal services for the collection of surface meteorological and precipitation data. The contract was awarded by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) to support the agency's Oceanic and Atmospheric Research (OAR) National Severe Storms Laboratory (NSSL) and its VORTEX-SE program, which researches severe weather in the southeastern United States. The contract was awarded on a sole-source...
This $90,000.00 federal grant was awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to Purdue University, a not-for-profit educational institution, to conduct research on agricultural drought, which is described as one of the most severe natural disasters affecting many aspects of life and the environment. The grant has an ultimate completion date of August 31, 2023. Purdue University, as the prime contractor, will leverage its expertise in areas such as agricultural...
This federal contract award, valued at $150,000.00, was granted to Purdue University by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to conduct research on the subseasonal to seasonal variability pattern in the midlatitudes. Purdue University, a 1862 Land Grant College and Educational Institution, is the prime contractor for this grant. The contract does not have a set-aside designation. Purdue University has a history of providing research, prototypes, designs, testing services,...
The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) awarded a $177,138.16 grant to the University of Miami Rosenstiel School of Marine and Atmospheric Science to study the relationship between precipitation and environmental factors that influence tropical cyclone formation. The research aims to quantify the evolution of precipitation patterns in developing and non-developing disturbances across different ocean basins, and analyze the impact of precipitation on inner core thermodynamics....

This $105,000 federal contract award to Purdue University is focused on investigating the impact of land surface conditions on the structure, intensity, and rainfall characteristics of landfalling tropical cyclones. The project aims to develop a better process-scale understanding of the interactive mechanisms between land and tropical cyclones, and to explore how incorporating improved representation of antecedent land state using satellite data can enhance the prediction of landfalling tropical cyclone impacts in the Hurricane Weather Research and Forecasting (HWRF) modeling system. The award is part of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration's (NASA's) efforts to integrate land surface processes for improved simulation of landfalling tropical cyclones. There is no set-aside designation for this contract. Purdue University is the prime contractor, and the award is funded by the Shared Services Center, which is a civilian agency.
