      "The purpose of this contribution is to provide funding to contribute to capacity building for key stakeholders in the assessment of prevention programs and approaches for countering radicalization to violence (CRV) in Canada.",
      "The overarching objective of this project is to improve the monitoring of the cryosphere through the development of a monitoring network in order to better predict and assess the multi- levels impacts of arctic climate change.",
      "The main goal of the project is to increase the quality of the Canadian Precipitation Analysis (CaPA), an operational product developed and supported by Environment and Climate Change Canada (ECCC), and the quantitative precipitation forecasts over mountain regions in winter.",
      "Terrestrial surface parameters such as soil moisture, vegetation, together with surface roughness, play significant roles in the forecasting and prediction capabilities of hydrological and atmospheric models. The overall objective of this project is to enhance our knowledge in the Earth system sciences, through improved analysis and modelling of combined SMAP and SMOS data along with RADARSAT Constellation Mission data. The new knowledge that will be generated has the potential not only to enhance our theoretical understanding in Earth system sciences, but also to provide information for pract",
      "Lakes play an essential role in many economic, social and cultural activities, as well as being important for ecology and biodiversity. This research project aims to improve our knowledge of the water balance and connectivity of Canadian lakes using satellite data and to evaluate the added value of the information for hydrodynamic modeling. The integration of two data sources will be explored: the future SWOT satellite, scheduled for launch in 2022, and the RADARSAT constellation mission synthetic aperture radar.",
      "The goal of the proposed research is to employ state-of-the-art aerosol and aerosol-cloud-interaction (ACI) models in the context of a continuing program of ground- and satellite-based remote sensing and microphysical analysis to help characterize and better understand aerosol and ACI dynamics over the Arctic. The measurement-based approach of this proposal consists of carrying on previous analyses of aerosol and cloud dynamics at the event and seasonal level. The modelling component, by the same token, incorporates a moderate-spatial-resolution model for analysis of long term aerosol statisti",
      "The Lunar Vertex payload will be delivered to the Moon to study the Reiner Gamma lunar swirl, a bright, unusual marking, collocated with a magnetic anomaly, both of unknown origin. Our main objective is to characterize the composition and regolith properties at the Reiner Gamma swirl from the orbit to the ground, to better constrain its origin. The team will use the orbital remote sensing images and images acquired by a microscope on the rover to characterize the composition and texture of the regolith before and during the Lunar Vertex mission, as the rover drives across the swirl."
