This is a $305,449 grant awarded by NASA to Clark University to support the ACT-America research project. The overarching goals of ACT-America are to reduce uncertainties in mesoscale atmospheric transport and biogenic surface carbon flux estimates using targeted aircraft measurement campaigns and a regional inversion system. This will improve constraints on surface biogenic carbon fluxes and associated ecosystem model parameters, which will then be transferred to a multi-year, continental-scale...
