- This $749,989 Project Grant was awarded on January 1, 2026 by the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) to Utah State University (USU). The project aims to address a key limitation in space weather forecasting by generating realistic synthetic data representing Solar Energetic Particle (SEP) events across multiple observational sources. This will enable the development of more accurate and generalizable AI-based forecasting models to safeguard space operations and...
- This $109,930 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Computer and Information Science and Engineering (CISE) program (CFDA 47.070) aims to develop an advanced cyberinfrastructure that integrates artificial intelligence (AI) with diverse space weather data to improve forecasting of extreme space weather events. The project, led by The Johns Hopkins University, will apply generative AI models to enhance historical solar data, enabling more accurate predictive analyses of...
- This $517,046 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) supports collaborative research on plasma turbulence and heating in the solar chromosphere. The investigators will carry out theoretical analysis and computer simulations to test the hypothesis that small-scale plasma processes, known as the thermal Farley-Buneman instability, cause heating in the coolest parts of the Sun's atmosphere. The research team will use observational data...
- This $290,285 Project Grant awarded by the National Science Foundation's Computer and Information Science and Engineering (CISE) program (CFDA 47.070) aims to develop an advanced cyberinfrastructure that integrates artificial intelligence (AI) with diverse space weather data to improve forecasting of extreme space weather events.

This $279,888 federal Project Grant was awarded by the Office of Advanced Cyberinfrastructure under the National Science Foundation's Computer and Information Science and Engineering (CISE) program. The grant will fund the integration of the NSF-sponsored Madrigal database, which stores ground-based geoscience data, with the Heliophysics Application Programming Interface (HAPI) and Space Physics Archive Search and Extract (SPASE) data access and standardization tools. Key activities include: 1) developing a Madrigal-HAPI server to provide Madrigal data via the HAPI infrastructure, 2) building a metadata converter between HAPI and SPASE, 3) creating a Madrigal-specific plugin to populate SPASE metadata, 4) engaging the research community and providing training, and 5) assessing the efficacy of the newly developed tools. This project aims to increase the findability, accessibility, interoperability, and reusability (FAIR) of geoscience data to enable scientific discovery across a wide range of heliophysics research.
