This is a $188,104.11 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Shared Services Center to the Universities Space Research Association (USRA) to develop a global surface nitrogen dioxide (NO2) dataset using observations from the Ozone Monitoring Instrument (OMI) on the Aura satellite. The project aims to enhance the relevance of NASA satellite data to tropospheric composition, health, and air quality studies by improving methods to infer surface NO2...
This is a $470,025.98 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to The Research Foundation for the State University of New York (RF SUNY) to develop long-term surface concentration maps of atmospheric ammonia, nitrogen dioxide, and formaldehyde over the contiguous United States. The research aims to better understand the changing patterns of reactive nitrogen and volatile organic compound emissions, as well as the shifting chemical regimes of ozone and secondary...
This is a $929,964.70 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to The Trustees of Columbia University in the City of New York to conduct research on using satellite products and models to quantify changes in air pollution levels and associated health effects in New York State over the past decade. The research aims to: 1) conduct a multi-pollutant health impact analysis, 2) attribute background versus U.S. anthropogenic sources, and 3) estimate uncertainties in...
This is a $139,288.62 grant awarded by NASA's Shared Services Center to the Universities Space Research Association (USRA), a nonprofit research organization. The grant is for research to develop tools and methods to extract and interpret city-level particulate matter (PM2.5) monitoring and forecast data from NASA satellite and model data, making this information more accessible to the public and end-users. The grant does not have a set-aside designation. USRA has extensive experience supporting...
The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) awarded a $135,000.00 training grant contract to The Trustees of Princeton University, Office of Research and Project Administration Division. The contract aims to study the use of satellite remote sensing to analyze the spatiotemporal variability of tropospheric ammonia (NH3) emissions, which is critical for air quality management. The research will validate satellite NH3 measurements using in-situ data, examine how satellite overpass...
This is a $764,879 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to Atmospheric & Environmental Research Inc. (AER), a subsidiary of Verisk Analytics, Inc. The goal of the project is to use NASA's satellite data on boundary-layer ammonia (NH3) concentrations to improve emission inventories for air quality managers, forecasters, and other stakeholders concerned with the health impacts of particulate matter (PM2.5) precursors like NH3. The project will integrate the...
The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) awarded a $288,522.37 grant to the Universities Space Research Association (USRA) to validate satellite observations of atmospheric trace species such as aerosols, ozone, nitrogen dioxide, and water vapor against other measurement platforms. The effort will use a chemistry model to reconcile sunrise and sunset observations from the Stratospheric Aerosol and Gas Experiment III (SAGE III) instrument on the International Space Station. This...
This is a $661,465.54 research grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the Georgia Institute of Technology's research organization, Georgia Tech Research Corporation. The grant funds research to analyze satellite, ground-based, and in-situ observations of tropospheric nitrogen oxides (NOx) over the United States. The goal is to better understand air quality and emission trends using satellite data, particularly from instruments like the Ozone Monitoring...
This is a grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of Maryland, College Park (UMD) to produce new and improved sulfur dioxide (SO2) measurements from the Ozone Monitoring Instrument (OMI) on NASA's Aura satellite. The grant, valued at $311,752.24, will fund the development and implementation of an advanced Iterative Spectral Fitting (ISF) algorithm to retrieve SO2 data with higher accuracy and precision, as well as an Extended ISF (EISF)...
This is a $99,640.82 grant awarded by NASA through the Rapid Response and Novel Research in Earth Science (RRNES) solicitation to The Research Foundation for the State University of New York (RF SUNY) to conduct research on the environmental impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic. The proposed work will: 1) constrain atmospheric dispersion patterns in three air basins using satellite data, 2) estimate emissions and lifetime of nitrogen oxides, and 3) analyze time series data on emissions from 2004...

This is a $270,259.55 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Shared Services Center to the Universities Space Research Association (USRA) on May 3, 2019. The grant supports a research project to improve estimates of emissions of short-lived air pollutants, such as sulfur dioxide (SO2) and nitrogen oxides (NOx), using satellite observations. The project will develop the NASA Satellite-Derived Emission (SATEM) database to quantify these emissions at enhanced accuracy and temporal resolution, and then merge SATEM with a leading global bottom-up emissions inventory (Community Emissions Data System or CEDS) to create a more accurate hybrid emissions inventory. This hybrid inventory will be implemented in NASA's Earth system model to evaluate the impact of the improved emissions data on simulations of tropospheric air quality. The project is highly relevant to NASA's Earth science research program and aims to address the question of how atmospheric composition is changing over time. There is no set-aside designation for this grant.
