Amendment 56: A.26 CYGNSS Competed Science Team Final Text and Due Dates

A.26 CYGNSS Competed Science Team aims to support the use of the ocean and land data products from The Cyclone Global Navigation Satellite System (CYGNSS), either individually or together, for scientific investigations and end-user applications. Successful proposers will become members of the Competed CYGNSS Science Team. This program element consists of three topical subelements. First, Scientific Studies Leveraging the Full Time-Series of CYGNSS Observations (Section 2.1), targets studies that will enhance our understanding of the Earth System by leveraging the full temporal record of observations available from CYGNSS after nearly seven years on orbit. Second, Integrative Studies Leveraging CYGNSS Data (Section 2.2), seeks proposals that will leverage CYGNSS data in conjunction with other relevant NASA datasets to determine and exploit what new information CYGNSS can provide in the context of the larger NASA program of record. Third, Using CYGNSS to Better Understand the Earth System (Section 2.3), seeks studies that primarily leverage CYGNSS data to provide better understanding of Earth System processes and phenomena.

ROSES-2023 Amendment 56 releases final text and due dates for A.26 CYGNSS Competed Science Team. Notices of intent are requested by December 4, 2023, and proposals are due January 17, 2024.

We anticipate that a separate program element focused on the utilization of CYGNSS in support of Earth Science for Action to be released at a later date.
