About this award
This is a $96,610 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University Corporation for Atmospheric Research (UCAR) to conduct research on the observable benefits of the Montreal Protocol and its amendments within the stratosphere. The research will involve detailed analyses of over 15 years of high-quality data from the Aura Microwave Limb Sounder (MLS) instrument, focusing on stratospheric ozone and chlorine species. This effort aims to track and understand changes in the stratospheric ozone layer and related chemicals, which was a central purpose of the Aura mission. The research will be performed at UCAR's facilities in Boulder, Colorado. The contract does not have a set-aside designation.
Description
We propose to better evaluate observable benefits, within the stratosphere, of the montreal protocol and its amendments, which were aimed at essentially eliminating anthropogenic emission threats to the ozone layer, by performing novel detailed analyses of the past 15+ years of high-quality aura microwave limb sounder (MLS) data, mainly stratospheric ozone and chlorine species. Notably, IT is necessary to recent reports of small long-term reductions in ozone loss for the antarctic ozone hole region. The emergence of such reductions is an important phase in the process of ozone layer recovery from the effects of ozone depleting substances (odss). The tracking and understanding of changes in the stratospheric ozone layer and in related chemicals was a central purpose behind the creation of the aura mission.
