Amendment 24: Surface Water and Ocean Topography (SWOT) Science Team Final Text and Due Dates.

The goal of A.11 Surface Water and Ocean Topography (SWOT) Science Team is to select U.S. members of the international SWOT Science Team that will function from 2024 through 2028. Via jointly-released twin solicitations, NASA and CNES seek studies that will demonstrate the potential of the SWOT’s innovative wide-swath SAR interferometry, while recognizing the complexity and novelty of the measurement system as we begin to learn about SWOT’s capabilities in the coming years. As a critical piece in assessing the mission’s scientific success, the main charge for the SWOT Science Team is to provide robust evidence how SWOT’s new technological capabilities that provide high-resolution and high-precision mapping enable new discoveries across a wide range of Earth science and applications. NASA will select the U.S. participants (only) and CNES will be responsible for the selection of the international members of the team.

ROSES-2023 Amendment 24 releases final text and due dates for A.11 SWOT Science Team. Notices of intent are requested by November 9, 2023, and proposals are due December 15, 2023.

On or about May 22 2023, this Amendment to the NASA Research Announcement "Research Opportunities in Space and Earth Sciences (ROSES) 2023" (NNH23ZDA001N) will be posted on the NASA research opportunity homepage at https://solicitation.nasaprs.com/ROSES2023

Questions concerning A.11 SWOT ST may be directed to Nadya Vinogradova Shiffer, at nadya@nasa.gov.

International SWOT Mission Can Improve Flood Prediction

A partnership between NASA and the French space agency, the satellite is poised to help improve forecasts of where and when flooding will occur in Earth’s rivers, lakes, and reservoirs. Rivers, lakes, and reservoirs are like our planet’s arteries, carrying life-sustaining water in interconnected networks. When Earth’s water cycle runs too fast, flooding can result, […]

A tiled collection of logos for Zooniverse projects. Each logo consists of a square containing two concentric circles formed of thick lines plus a diagonal slash. The colors, textures, backgrounds (and sometimes foregrounds) of each logo are customized for each project. For example, a project about penguins features photographs of penguins in its logo.

The image is divided horizontally by an undulating line between a cloudscape forming a nebula along the bottom portion and a comparatively clear upper portion. Speckled across both portions is a starfield, showing innumerable stars of many sizes. The smallest of these are small, distant, and faint points of light. The largest of these appear larger, closer, brighter, and more fully resolved with 8-point diffraction spikes. The upper portion of the image is blueish, and has wispy translucent cloud-like streaks rising from the nebula below. The orangish cloudy formation in the bottom half varies in density and ranges from translucent to opaque. The stars vary in color, the majority of which have a blue or orange hue. The cloud-like structure of the nebula contains ridges, peaks, and valleys – an appearance very similar to a mountain range. Three long diffraction spikes from the top right edge of the image suggest the presence of a large star just out of view.
