- This federal contract award, number NNX15AJ51A, is a grant for research provided by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to Duke University for a project aimed at improving atmospheric composition-climate modeling capabilities at the NASA Goddard Institute for Space Studies (GISS). The $572,884.23 grant will fund a collaboration between the Shindell Research Group at Duke University and NASA GISS, bringing together expertise in atmospheric chemistry, aerosols, and climate...
- This federal grant award to the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA), through its Office of Research Administration division, is for a project titled "The Impact of Biomass Burning (BB) on Air Quality and Climate Change." The $620,693 grant, awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) on July 7, 2021, has a period of performance through July 6, 2025. The award does not have a set-aside designation. As the prime grantee, UCLA will leverage its research...
- This federal grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to Florida State University (FSU) supports research to improve the understanding of biomass burning and its impacts on air quality and climate in the southeastern United States. The $359,105.77 grant will develop an enhanced inventory of biomass burning emissions in the region, using ground-based observations to improve upon satellite-based estimates. The improved emissions data will then be incorporated...
- This is a $412,035 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the National Institute of Aerospace Associates (NIA), a non-profit research institute. The grant supports research to improve understanding of the connections between fuels, fire, weather, atmospheric chemistry, and smoke transport, which are critical to assessing impacts on air quality, atmospheric chemistry, and climate. The research involves providing support to guide flight planning for the...
- The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) awarded a $605,459.00 cooperative agreement to Duke University's Office of Research Administration Division to continue a longstanding collaboration with the NASA Goddard Institute for Space Studies (GISS) on atmospheric composition-climate interactions. The research aims to: (1) coordinate composition modeling to maintain and improve GISS climate modeling capabilities as the model evolves; (2) utilize Duke's developed metrics to...
- This contract award to Duke University was made by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Shared Services Center. The $570,375.65 grant is for a research project with goals that parallel those of the Decadal Survey, which tracks flows of energy and changes in ecosystem structure, function and biodiversity. The work relies on national field data collection and NASA space-borne mission data. The grant was awarded on November 1, 2019 with a completion date of October 25, 2022....
- This is a federal grant award from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of Iowa for a research project related to the interactions and feedbacks between biomass burning and the water cycle. The $165,872.31 grant will fund a study led by Dr. Wang that uses a mesoscale meteorology-chemistry coupled atmospheric model, satellite data, and fire emission data to quantitatively assess the semi-direct effect of sub-Saharan African smoke on atmospheric lapse rate and...
- This federal contract award, valued at $90,000.00, was issued by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to Duke University's Office of Research Administration Division. The purpose of the contract is to evaluate how various climate policies can impact air quality and near-term climate. This will be accomplished through three objectives: 1) a sensitivity evaluation of the NASA GISS ModelE2 to analyze air quality and near-term climate metrics, 2) an evaluation of low-carbon...
- This is a $90,763 grant awarded by the Shared Services Center of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to Duke University, a prestigious private research institution located in Durham, North Carolina. The grant is part of NASA's ROSES (Research Opportunities in Space and Earth Sciences) funding opportunity, which aims to execute a balanced science program, participate as a key partner in NASA's exploration initiatives, advance discovery in emerging fields, and develop a...
- Duke University was awarded a $511,367 grant from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to fully integrate key remote sensing variables with continental scale ecological data to provide broadly accessible ecological forecasts to a user community of ecologists and managers. The product will integrate biological data and remote sensing to translate directly to decision-ready products, improving the reliability and precision of species distribution models used to anticipate...
This is a grant award from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to Duke University Office of Research Administration Division, a private non-profit educational institution, to conduct research on the effects of biomass burning on the chemical and climate system. The $452,564.59 grant will fund a project to enhance NASA's GISS Model E coupled chemistry-climate model, including improvements to the prognostic fire simulator and injection height model. The research involves conducting perturbed physics ensembles to evaluate the model against composition and climate observations, in order to better understand the contribution of core climate process uncertainty to discrepancies in atmospheric composition. This work aims to improve estimates of the impacts of biomass burning on atmospheric composition and regional climate. No set-aside designation was indicated for this grant award.
