| COLLABORATIVE RESEARCH WITH THE MARSHALL SPACEFLIGHT CENTER AT THE NATIONAL SPACE AND TECHNOLOGY CENTER REPLACING THE ORIGINAL COOOPERATIVE AGREEMENT NNM06AA04A THE NASA SHORT-TERM PREDICTION RESEARCH AND TRANSITION (SPORT) CENTER AT MSFC ACCELERATES THE TRANSITION OF UNIQUE OBSERVING, MODELING, AND DATA ASSIMILATION CAPABILITIES DEVELOPED UNDER THE AUSPICES OF THE NASA SCIENCE MISSION DIRECTORATE (SMD) TO NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE FORECAST OFFICES (NWSFO'S) AND DECISION MAKERS. THE SPORT CENTER CONDUCTS BOTH DISCOVERY AND PRODUCT-DRIVEN RESEARCH ASSOCIATED WITH ADVANCED ALGORITHM DEVELOPMENT, LAND/ATMOSPHERE INTERACTIONS, SATELLITE DATA ASSIMILATION, CONVECTIVE INITIATION AND EVOLUTION, LIGHTNING/SEVERE STORM KINEMATICS, AND QUANTITATIVE PRECIPITATION ESTIMATION AND FORECASTING. OBSERVATIONS FROM A NUMBER OF NASA SATELLITE MISSIONS AND STATE-OF-THE-ART COMMUNITY-BASED MESOSCALE PREDICTION/ASSIMILATION SYSTEMS ARE USED. THE SPORT CENTER CURRENTLY PROVIDES A NUMBER OF PRODUCTS FROM MODIS, AIRS, AND AMSR-E, SUPPLEMENTAL NUMERICAL GUIDANCE FROM THE WRF MODELS, AND TOTAL LIGHTNING FROM THE LIGHTNING MAPPER ARRAY (LMA) TO SIX NWSFOS IN THE NWS SOUTHERN REGION. NASA IS EXTENDING THE SPORT ACTIVITY TO SELECTED FLORIDA NWS FORECAST OFFICES AND HAS PROPOSED TO SUPPORT THE SERVIR (SPANISH ACRONYM FOR REGIONAL VISUALIZATION AND MONITORING SYSTEM, HTTP://SERVIR.NSSTC.NASA.GOV/) ACTIVITY IN CENTRAL AMERICA WITH SIMILAR CAPABILITIES. THESE PRODUCTS AND TOOLS HAVE PROVIDED FORECASTERS WITH A BETTER DESCRIPTION OF THE REGIONAL ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS. THE RESOURCES AND SATELLITE EXPERTISE AT THE UNIVERSITY OF WISCONSIN-MADISON IN THE AREA OF MODIS MULTISPECTRAL, AIRS HYPERSPECTRAL AND PASSIVE MICROWAVE DATA AND PRODUCTS WILL COMPLIMENT MANY OF THE ONGOING AND PLANNED SPORT ACTIVITIES. THE UNIVERSITY OF WISCONSIN-MADISON WILL DEVELOP MODIS IMAGERY REMAPPING AND DISPLAY CAPABILITIES WHICH ACCOUNT FOR PIXEL OVERLAP (BOWTIE EFFECT) IN MCIDAS PROCESSING, DEMONSTRATE CAPABILITIES WITH LEVEL 1 AND LEVEL 2 MODIS DATA, AND MAKE NEW CAPABILITIES AN OPERATIONAL COMPONENT OF THE MCIDAS SOFTWARE PACKAGE. THE UNIVERSITY WILL ADAPT EOS SCIENCE TEAM ALGORITHMS FOR AMSR-E ATMOSPHERIC AND SURFACE PRODUCTS TO THE IMAPP SOFTWARE FORE USE WITH DIRECT BROADCAST GROUND STATION RECEIVING STATIONS. THE UNIVERSITY WILL REFINE, UPDATE, AND MAINTAIN DIRECT BROADCAST PROCESSING ALGORITHMS TO PROVIDE REAL TIME EOS MODIS AND/OR AIRS DATA AND PRODUCTS TO SUPPORT MSFC NOWCASTING AND OTHER RELATED ACTIVITIES AND MAKE DATA AVAILABLE IN SUPPORT OF NASA/MSFC SPORT RELATED ACTIVITIES. | UNIV OF WISCONSIN SCH OF MED | $833,276 | NATIONAL AERONAUTICS AND SPACE ADMINISTRATION | — | — | — | AR93 | Jun 19, 2007 | Sep 20, 2006 | Sep 19, 2011 | ||
