- This federal contract award is to the University Corporation for Atmospheric Research (UCAR), a nonprofit consortium of over 115 universities that manages the National Center for Atmospheric Research (NCAR). The $109,248.39 grant from the Shared Services Center at the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) supports atmospheric research to improve understanding of ozone, nitrogen oxides, and volatile organic compounds photochemistry, leveraging over 15 years of satellite data. The...
This federal contract award to the University Corporation for Atmospheric Research (UCAR) aims to quantify and attribute past air quality trends in ozone and particulate matter over the United States from 2005 to 2018. The $696,948 grant will fund the use of the Community Multiscale Air Quality (CMAQ) model, constrained by NASA satellite data, to generate daily air quality analyses at the county level. The effort will disentangle the contribution of individual physical and chemical processes to changes in air quality and oxidation efficiency over this period. All CMAQ simulations will be archived at the NASA Atmospheric Science Data Center for further community analysis. The award does not have a set-aside designation and the work will be primarily performed at UCAR's facilities in Boulder, Colorado. As a premier atmospheric research organization, UCAR regularly supports federal agencies like NOAA, NASA, NSF, and DOE through both contract and grant mechanisms, leveraging its world-class facilities and expertise in weather, climate, and Earth system sciences.
