This cooperative agreement does not utilize a set-aside designation and focuses on lightning as an indicator of climate change, with emphasis on enhancements and new developments in this research area.
Under this agreement, Kenneth L. Cummins will leverage his expertise in lightning detection networks and climate research to advance understanding of how lightning characteristics relate to climate phenomena. Based on the contractor's background, deliverables are expected to include assessments of the National Lightning Detection Network performance, analysis of cloud-to-ground lightning variations, and examinations of relationships between lightning, precipitation anomalies, and nitrogen oxide production. This work supports NASA's broader mission to utilize atmospheric and climate observation capabilities to enhance scientific understanding of Earth's climate systems.
