About this award

The Trustees of Columbia University in the City of New York received a $150,000 research grant from the Shared Services Center (a civilian federal agency) awarded on September 1, 2022, with completion expected by August 31, 2026. The grant supports research on the global climate role of biomass burning aerosols and brown carbon, addressing the increasing frequency and intensity of biomass burning events and their representation in climate models. The project utilizes the GISS ModelE Earth System Model to evaluate brown carbon and biomass burning aerosol representation by comparing model outputs against in-situ measurements from the ATOM flight campaigns and remote sensing data from instruments including MODIS, OMI, and AERONET ground-based networks.

The research will predict future radiative forcing and climate impacts of biomass burning aerosols using both prescribed emissions from biomass burning inventories and interactive emissions from the ModelE PYRE interactive fire module. This work aims to enhance ModelE's predictive capability for biomass burning aerosols and reduce uncertainty in Earth system models, ultimately providing scientists and policymakers with improved knowledge for climate change mitigation efforts. The contract is a non-set-aside grant, indicating open competition, and the work will be performed at Columbia University's location in New York, NY.
