A Regional Climate Model Evaluation System

Completed TRL 5

Description

Develop a packaged data management infrastructure for the comparison of generated climate model output to existing observational datasets that includes capabilities for re-gridding model and/or observational data and the computation of metrics (bias, RMS error, etc) describing the relationship between the models and the observations.

Infuse the database and analysis framework with the Coordinated Regional Climate Downscaling Experiment (CORDEX), the National Climate Assessment (NCA), Earth System Grid (ESG), and USC/UC Merced (STEEDS).

How to get involved

This is early/mid-stage (TRL 5) — 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.
