This federal contract award, valued at $649,143.68, was granted by NASA to the University Corporation for Atmospheric Research (UCAR), a nonprofit organization that manages the National Center for Atmospheric Research (NCAR). The contract, titled "NASA's FIRE Impacts on Regional Emissions and Chemistry (FIRECHEM)," is part of an interagency collaboration focused on characterizing the emissions, chemistry, and impacts of North American fires. Under this contract, UCAR/NCAR will conduct airborne sampling of various types of fires using the NASA DC-8 aircraft. The primary objectives are to: 1) sample wildfires in coordination with interagency partners to understand chemical evolution and transport and evaluate downwind impacts; 2) sample small fires to build statistics on emission factors, fuels, plume rise, satellite detectability, and integrated impacts; and 3) sample prescribed burns in coordination with the Fire and Smoke Model Evaluation Experiment (FASMEE). The contract does not have a set-aside designation.
