About this award

The Research Foundation for the State University of New York (RF-SUNY), operating as RF-SUNY at the University at Albany, received a $336,316 grant award from the NASA Shared Services Center, with a completion date of May 28, 2027. This research grant supports an investigation into the spatiotemporal evolution of smoke aerosols in the upper troposphere and lower stratosphere (UTLS) and their radiative effects. The study will utilize multi-spectral aerosol extinction observations from the Stratospheric Aerosol and Gas Experiment III (SAGE III) aboard the International Space Station (ISS). The work will be performed in Albany, New York, and no set-aside designation was applied to this award.

RF-SUNY, a non-profit educational corporation serving as the contracting vehicle for research activities across the State University of New York system, brings established expertise in atmospheric sciences and environmental monitoring. This award aligns with NASA's broader research priorities in climate science and Earth observation, complementing the agency's mission to understand atmospheric processes and their climate implications. The grant represents continued investment in fundamental research examining aerosol behavior in the stratosphere, which is critical for understanding the radiative forcing effects of smoke and other atmospheric constituents on Earth's climate system.
