Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) was awarded a $779,600 research grant by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) on June 1, 2023, to conduct research titled "Identifying Fingerprints of Changing Anthropogenic Sources and Natural Variability on Observed Regional and Seasonal Trends in Tropospheric Ozone and Precursors." The grant, issued under solicitation 22-ACMAP22-0020 with an ultimate completion date of May 31, 2026, will be performed in Cambridge, Massachusetts. No set-aside designation was applied to this award, indicating competitive selection through open competition. This research project addresses critical questions regarding atmospheric composition and air quality by investigating how human activities and natural factors influence regional and seasonal variations in tropospheric ozone and its precursor compounds. The work aligns with NOAA's Air Chemistry, Carbon Cycle, and Climate program priorities and contributes to the federal government's broader objectives under Executive Order 14042 related to climate and environmental science. MIT's established expertise in climate science, atmospheric research, and advanced modeling capabilities positions the institution to deliver meaningful scientific insights into ozone trends that inform air quality management and climate policy decisions.
