The Cooperative Institute for Satellite Earth System Studies (CISESS) is a national consortium of academic and nonprofit institutions, led by the University of Maryland and North Carolina State University, aimed at enhancing our understanding of the Earth system through satellite observations and research.
Goals
- Enhance understanding of Earth system processes by integrating satellite observations.
- Improve systems for data access, quality, management, and stewardship.
- Apply advances in computing, AI, and social sciences to NOAA's mission.
- Support satellite calibration, algorithm development, and long-term data records.
Sponsor
- National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA)
- NOAA National Environmental Satellite, Data, and Information Service (NESDIS)
- NOAA National Weather Service (NWS)
Creation
CISESS was established in 2019 through a cooperative agreement with NOAA, evolving from the Cooperative Institute for Climate and Satellites (CICS). No specific legislation is cited for its creation, but it operates under NOAA's research partnerships.
Funding
CISESS received up to $175 million over five years from NOAA starting in 2019. There's no public information indicating when funding ends.
Leadership
