National Science Foundation in Oregon

NSF awards tagged to Oregon

National Science Foundation as awarding agency, Oregon as place-of-performance: 521 records summing to $823,919,298.67. A National Science Foundation award coded outside OR is out. An award in Oregon from a different awarding agency is out even if the topic sounds related. Oregon (OR) excludes Washington, California, and Idaho. A Washington-coded NSF award is not this cell even if the lab collaboration crosses the Columbia.

Five hundred twenty-one awards against $823,919,298.67 is a mid-thin NSF file, thinner than Michigan’s 1,230 and a similar dollar band. Unique recipients are unpublished. Do not read 521 as 521 unique unique grants, papers, or named universities. National Science Foundation in Oregon is the both-keys table. Oregon federal spending is the all-agency state hub. National Science Foundation is the agency book without an OR filter. All spending ties lists other joins.

Named campuses and oceanographic folklore are unpublished. $823,919,298.67 stays on the OR tag. Correlation is not causation: Oregon did not cause $823,919,298.67 by existing as a large or small place. Population and outcome scores are not packet facts. The join is 049 × OR only. Campaign contributions do not fund these USAspending awards.

521 rows are not 521 unique labs

$823,919,298.67 does not measure unique grants, papers, or named universities. Those series are not USAspending fields on this aggregate. The cell sums award obligations with awarding-agency code 049 and an OR place-of-performance tag.

Do not treat 521 awards as a census of unique grants, papers, or named universities. Parent hubs are supposed to be larger than this pair. If Oregon federal spending or National Science Foundation matched $823,919,298.67 and 521, the join would be pointless. Use the overlay when both keys must stay on. Washington, California, and the Michigan NSF join in this slice are other pairs, not addends.
