About this award

The University of Maryland, College Park was awarded a $433,424 research grant by the Civilian Shared Services Center on February 10, 2022, to support the maintenance, improvement, and validation of ozone and sulfur dioxide measurements from the Geostationary Operational Environmental Satellite (GOES) R Series, specifically utilizing the Earth Polychromatic Imaging Camera (EPIC) instrument aboard the Deep Space Climate Observatory (DSCOVR). Building on prior DSCOVR science team achievements, the award funds continued development and refinement of the Direct Vertical Column Fitting algorithm for processing EPIC ultraviolet measurements, enhancing the agency's capability to monitor atmospheric trace gases critical to air quality assessment and environmental protection. The contract carries an ultimate completion date of February 9, 2027, and involves no set-aside designation, reflecting the university's competitive technical capabilities in satellite-based atmospheric science and data processing.

The University of Maryland, College Park operates as a child entity under the University System of Maryland and will execute this work at its College Park, Maryland facility. As a research-intensive land-grant institution with demonstrated expertise in Earth sciences, atmospheric monitoring, and satellite data analysis, the university brings substantial institutional infrastructure and scientific talent to advance NOAA's environmental monitoring objectives through DSCOVR's operational capabilities.
