The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) awarded a $134,696.11 training grant contract to the Regents of the University of Colorado, a U.S. state government educational institution. The contract is focused on measuring the optical properties of brown carbon (BrC) aerosols, which can contribute to both the cooling and warming effects of atmospheric particles. Using cavity ring down spectroscopy, photoacoustic spectroscopy, Raman microscopy, and aerosol mass spectrometry, the...
This is a $538,533.00 grant award to the Regents of the University of Colorado, a U.S. state government entity and institution of higher learning, by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Shared Services Center. The grant is for the "HIGH-RESOLUTION DETECTION OF THIN CLOUDS AND AEROSOLS FACILITATED BY THE DENSITY-DIMENSION ALGORITHM FOR THE ATMOSPHERE: DEVELOPMENT OF NEW CALIPSO LEVEL-2 DATA PRODUCTS" project, which aims to develop new data products for the CALIPSO...

The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) awarded a $361,407.85 grant to the Regents of the University of Colorado, doing business as the University of Colorado Office of Contracts and Grants Division, to perform research on the Stratospheric Aerosol and Gas Experiment III on the International Space Station (SAGE III-ISS). The work will entail measuring in-situ profiles of stratospheric aerosol size distributions using newly developed optical particle and condensation nuclei counters deployed on high-altitude balloons. These measurements will be timed to coincide with SAGE III-ISS overpasses at two sites, Boulder, Colorado and San Jose, Costa Rica. The in-situ aerosol data will be used to validate the SAGE III-ISS aerosol extinction products, inform limb scatter algorithm development, and contribute to a 45-year record of stratospheric aerosol measurements. This grant was awarded without a set-aside designation.
