This is a grant award from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to Texas A&M University in the amount of $725,892.13. The grant is for a research project to study microphysical processes that control water and clouds in the upper troposphere and lower stratosphere (UTLS), the role of convection in generating cirrus and moistening the lower stratosphere, and the water budget of the lowermost stratosphere. The research will use models and observations from NASA's Aura...
This is a $92,578.61 grant award from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to Texas A&M University to conduct research on water vapor concentration, cloud abundance, and their impact on the Earth's climate and stratospheric chemistry. The research aims to use measurements from various satellite instruments, including SAGE II/III, CALIOP, OMPS-LP, and Aura MLS, as well as transport and microphysical modeling, to better understand the processes controlling clouds and...
The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) awarded a $340,012.61 grant for research to the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) to study convective impacts on the summer stratosphere over North America. The research, known as the Dynamics and Chemistry of the Summer Stratosphere (DCOTSS) project, aims to improve understanding of how tropospheric air and water are injected into the stratosphere by convection, and the resulting chemical changes in the stratosphere, including...

This is a $2,595,534.00 grant award from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to Texas A&M University to conduct a field measurement campaign using the NASA ER-2 high-altitude research aircraft. The research will investigate the dynamics and chemistry of the summer stratosphere over central North America, combining in-situ aircraft observations with satellite, radar, and model data to understand the role of convection in the composition and dynamics of the lower stratosphere. The proposed research aims to lay the scientific foundation for understanding how the summertime stratospheric environment, including the protective stratospheric ozone layer, will change as the climate and atmospheric composition evolve. This grant award is not set-aside and is part of NASA's Earth Venture Suborbital program, which supports compact, focused investigations of the current state and future evolution of the Earth system.
