This is a $117,314 grant awarded by the NASA Shared Services Center to Climate Aerosol & Pollution Research LLC, a for-profit limited liability company, for research on the impact of different dust minerals on climate change and atmospheric processes. The proposed work focuses on two key topics: heterogeneous ice nucleation by dust minerals and the coupling of dust aerosols to the global carbon cycle. The grant aims to contribute to the continuing development of the NASA GISS Earth system...

This federal contract award to Texas A&M University is for research to improve the simulation of dust aerosols in global climate models and reduce the uncertainty of their radiative forcing on climate. The $202,219.98 grant from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) will utilize satellite observations from CALIPSO, CloudSat, and other A-Train sensors to develop a new 3-dimensional dataset of dust aerosol distribution, evaluate dust simulation in climate models, and make...

This is a $52,992 grant awarded by the Shared Services Center, a civilian agency, to Aerodyne Research Inc., a small business manufacturer based in Billerica, Massachusetts. The three-year research program builds on findings from the KORUS-AQ field campaign, focused on improving model capabilities to accurately simulate PM2.5 levels and composition during haze events. Aerodyne, a leading provider of advanced atmospheric monitoring instruments, will leverage its expertise in developing real-time,...
