This $119,927 federal Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) supports research investigating the effects of ionospheric density irregularities on high-frequency (HF) radio wave propagation. The research aims to improve understanding of ground-based HF communications, which are critical for long-distance communications, emergency situations, and various civilian and military applications. The project will utilize satellite data, HF...
The National Science Foundation's Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) has awarded a $333,016 Project Grant to Andrews University in Berrien Springs, Michigan. This 3-year collaborative research project, titled "CEDAR--Effects of Ionospheric Density Irregularities on High-Frequency Radio Wave Propagation," aims to investigate the impact of ionospheric density fluctuations on the propagation of high-frequency (HF) radio waves. The research will utilize satellite data, HF amateur radio...
This $174,257 project grant from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) will fund collaborative research to measure daily ionospheric variability and solar eclipse impacts using amateur radio HF Doppler shift receivers. Led by the University of Scranton, the project will deploy thirty GRAPE receivers across North America to study ionospheric responses to dawn, dusk, and solar eclipses in 2023 and 2024. The receivers will generate observations to answer scientific...
This $165,476 federal Project Grant award was provided by the National Science Foundation's Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) to the University of Alabama. The funding will support the deployment and operation of the Ham Radio Science Citizen Investigation (HAMSCI) Personal Space Weather Station Network, a distributed array of small instruments designed to study space weather impacts. The project will deploy 30 standardized stations capable of observing high-frequency Doppler shifts, amateur...
This Project Grant award for $210,124, funded by the National Science Foundation's Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050), will enable the deployment and operation of the Ham Radio Science Citizen Investigation (HAMSCI) Personal Space Weather Station Network. The project will install thirty standardized HAMSCI stations across the U.S. and Canada to observe high-frequency Doppler shifts, amateur radio transmissions, very low-frequency signals, and geomagnetic fields. The network will also deploy ten...
This National Science Foundation Project Grant of $224,954 will fund research to measure daily ionospheric variability and solar eclipse impacts using amateur radio HF Doppler shift receivers. Over the two-year period from January 2023 to December 2025, the awardee Case Western Reserve University will collaborate with the Hamsci amateur radio community on a project called CEDAR. Thirty Hamsci GRAPE receivers will be deployed across North America to study ionospheric responses to dawn, dusk,...
This Project Grant award of $180,225 from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) will fund the "Collaborative Research: DASI Track 2: Deployment and Operations of the Ham Radio Science Citizen Investigation (HAMSCI) Personal Space Weather Station Network" at the New Jersey Institute of Technology (NJIT). The project aims to deploy a network of thirty standardized space weather monitoring stations and ten automated GPS-disciplined amateur radio...
This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) provides $166,193 to The Johns Hopkins University to conduct collaborative research on the ionospheric density response to solar eclipses across the United States. The primary objectives are to: 1) quantify how solar eclipses impact the ionosphere's electron density and variations in the F-region height, and 2) identify the key factors driving these ionospheric responses, including reduced solar...
This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) provides $210,153 to Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University to conduct collaborative research on the ionospheric density response to solar eclipses across the United States. The research project aims to quantify the impact of solar eclipses on the ionosphere, a crucial region of the atmosphere that affects radio communication and navigation, and to identify the key factors driving these ionospheric...
This federal Project Grant award of $141,624.00 from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Science Mission Directorate (CFDA 43.001 - Science) supports research at the New Jersey Institute of Technology (NJIT) to study the response of the bottom-side ionosphere to a solar eclipse and to develop the ability of the Ham Radio Science Citizen Investigation (HamSCI) initiative to study transient heliophysics events. The award period runs from October 7, 2024 to October 6, 2027....
