About this award
The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) awarded a $536,726 grant to the University of Colorado Boulder to conduct research on thermosphere composition and its annual and semiannual variations. As the principal investigator, the University of Colorado will analyze how these natural variations in the upper atmosphere can drive patterns in both the thermosphere and ionosphere. The research is being conducted without a set-aside designation at the University's facilities in Boulder, Colorado over a five-year period ending in March 2025. No subcontractors or parent vehicles were associated with this NASA grant to the state university, which will utilize its expertise in space physics and the upper atmosphere to expand understanding of composition changes in these regions.
Description
Thermosphere composition exhibits complex and dynamic global annual and semiannual variations. This annual/semiannual variation of the composition is a common phenomenon that can drive one of the most prevalent patterns in the thermosphere and ionos
