NASA awarded a $59,938 research grant to the Research Foundation of the City University of New York (RFCUNY), operating through City College, for ozone LIDAR observations and air quality studies in the New York City area. The project, which commenced on January 1, 2023, and concludes on December 31, 2024, supports NASA's Atmospheric Tomography Mission (STAQS) and validates products from the Tropospheric Emissions: Monitoring of Pollution (TEMPO) instrument. LIDAR (Light Detection and Ranging) technology will be deployed to collect detailed atmospheric data on ground-level ozone concentrations, which directly supports both mission objectives and broader air quality monitoring efforts. The contract carries no set-aside designation, reflecting RFCUNY's competitive standing as a research institution. RFCUNY, a non-profit research administrator serving the City University of New York system, brings substantial experience in environmental monitoring and scientific research to this project. The organization regularly partners with federal agencies including NASA, NSF, and NIH on research initiatives spanning climate science, environmental sensing, and urban ecosystem monitoring. This award builds on RFCUNY's established capabilities in atmospheric research and leverages City College faculty expertise to support national priorities in air quality characterization and satellite validation efforts during the summer 2023 field campaign period.
