Completed TRL 6 (started at 3, targeting 6)
Develop a scalable, multiscale analysis tool, based on the Coupled Advanced multiscale Modeling and Visualization system (CAMVis), to improve extended-range tropical cyclone (TC) prediction and consequently TC climate projection by enabling:
Understanding of the TC genesis processes, accompanying multiscale processes (both downscaling by large-scale events and upscaling by small-scale events), and their subsequent non-linear interactions
Discovery of hidden predictive relationships between meteorological and climatological events.
This project targets the ACE, PATH, SMAP, Next-generation scatterometer, and 3D-Winds missions.
SMAP
Listed on TechPort itself — the most direct way to ask about this specific project.
This is early/mid-stage (TRL 6) — the most realistic path in is NASA SBIR/STTR, which funds small businesses and research institutions to develop technology aligned with NASA's needs (equity-free, phased funding). Check whether a current SBIR/STTR solicitation topic overlaps with this project's technology area, or contact the project directly (above) to ask.
None of these are guaranteed paths for this specific project — TechPort itself doesn't have an "apply" button. Reaching out to the contact(s) above with a specific question is usually the fastest way to find out what's actually open.
