About this award

This federal contract award, valued at $158,453.00, was issued by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Langley Research Center to the National Institute of Aerospace Associates (NIA), a non-profit research institute. The purpose of the contract is to conduct analysis of satellite and in-situ observations of the Asian Tropopause Aerosol Layer (ATAL), an enhancement of aerosols in the upper troposphere and lower stratosphere associated with deep convection of boundary-layer pollution during the Asian summer monsoon. The research aims to illuminate the optical properties, composition, and potential impacts of the ATAL on the upper troposphere and lower stratosphere region. This is a cost-plus-fixed-fee delivery order contract with no set-aside designation. The contract has an ultimate completion date of April 30, 2019.

Description

Analysis of satellite and in situ observations of the asian tropopause aerosol layer (atal) the asian tropopause aerosol layer (atal) is an enhancement of aerosols in the upper troposphere and lower stratosphere (utls) associated with deep convection of boundary-layer pollution during the asian summer monsoon. The presence of atal has important implications for cloud formation, precipitation, utls chemistry, and regional climate. The purpose of the proposed research is to use observational data from satellites, balloons and aircraft to illuminate the optical properties, composition, and potential impacts of the atal on the utls region. Future work may include additional deployments to india or other countries to measure and analyze aerosol levels in the utls, or to other domestic or international locations in response to volcanic eruptions to study the physical and chemical properties of volcanic plumes.
