This federal contract award, valued at $450,000.00, was granted by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to The Washington University in St. Louis, Missouri. The award will fund a research project to investigate the optical properties of brown carbon aerosols emitted from smoldering biomass burning, and how these properties evolve during photochemical aging. The goal is to provide a comprehensive dataset to improve climate models and satellite data retrieval algorithms. The project will focus on characterizing the single scattering albedo, Ångström absorption exponent, hemispheric backscatter fraction, asymmetry parameter, and complex refractive index of brown carbon aerosols from various biomes. This research directly supports NASA's Earth science research priorities related to atmospheric composition and climate modeling. The award does not have a small business set-aside designation, as The Washington University is a large private research institution with extensive experience conducting federal research and development contracts and grants.
