Amendment 15: A.23 releasing Weather and Atmospheric Dynamics

On or about Tuesday May 31, Amendment 15 will release program element A.23 Weather and Atmospheric Dynamics. NOIs are requested by July 15, 2016, and proposals are due by September 15, 2016.

This solicitation is aimed at enabling improved predictive capability for certain weather and extreme weather events in four specific areas. The first one relates to the use of past NASA airborne data from a long series of field experiments, and in conjunction with satellite data and numerical models, to better understand tropical cyclone genesis and intensity changes. The second one is focused on utilizing the soon to be launched CYclone Global Navigation Satellite System (CYGNSS) satellite mission for the study of the Madden-Julian oscillation (MJO) and tropical cyclones. The third one offers research opportunities related to the upcoming availability of a Lightning Imaging Sensor (LIS) on the International Space Station (ISS), and, the last one describes an opportunity related to the conduct of a field experiment in 2017.

NOIs are requested by July 15, 2016, and proposals are due by September 15, 2016.

Questions concerning this program element may be directed to Ramesh Kakar at ramesh.k.kakar@nasa.gov

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.
