- This is a federal grant award from the Shared Services Center of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the Carnegie Institution of Washington, doing business as the Carnegie Institution for Science, a non-profit research organization. The $159,051.93 grant is for the Atmospheric Carbon and Transport-America (ACT-America) mission, which aims to advance the ability to predict and manage future climate change by enabling policy-relevant quantification of the carbon cycle....
- This federal contract award is for the Atmospheric Carbon and Transport-America (ACT-America) mission, which aims to improve the ability to predict and manage future climate change by enabling policy-relevant quantification of the carbon cycle. The $461,068.19 grant was awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to Colorado State University to advance atmospheric inversion systems for quantifying carbon dioxide and methane sources and sinks. This work will help...
- This federal contract award, valued at $180,198.00, was granted by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration's (NASA) Shared Services Center to the Carnegie Institution of Washington, doing business as the Carnegie Institution for Science. The award supports the extension of the institution's regional modeling for NASA's Carbon Monitoring System (CMS) to estimate North American carbon dioxide (CO2) fluxes through mid-2018, with a focus on improving uncertainty quantification. The work...
- This is a $524,030 grant awarded by the Shared Services Center, a civilian federal agency, to the Carnegie Institution of Washington (doing business as Carnegie Institution for Science), a non-profit research organization. The grant is for a project titled "Quantifying Climate Sensitivities of Photosynthesis and Respiration in Arctic and Boreal Ecosystems from Top-Down Observational Constraints." This research-oriented grant does not have a set-aside designation, indicating open...
- This is a $172,613 grant award from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the Carnegie Institution of Washington, doing business as the Carnegie Institution for Science, a renowned non-profit research organization. The grant, titled "INVESTIGATING THE INFLUENCE OF PARENT BODY AQUEOUS ALTERATION ON THE STABLE ISOTOPIC COMPOSITIONS OF METEORITIC SOLUBLE ORGANIC MATTER," will fund research to study the impact of aqueous alteration on the stable isotopic...
- This is a $680,590.95 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of Colorado (CU) to participate in the second through fifth field studies of the Atmospheric Carbon and Transport-America (ACT-America) mission. The goal of ACT-America is to better understand and quantify sources and sinks of the greenhouse gases carbon dioxide and methane. CU will fabricate a compact atmospheric spectrometer instrument for installation on NASA's UC-12 aircraft to...
- 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...
- This is a 16-month extension to an existing project funded through the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA)'s 2011 Science Team for the Orbiting Carbon Observatory-2 (OCO-2) mission. The $167,784 grant to the Carnegie Institution of Washington (doing business as Carnegie Institution for Science), a nonprofit research organization, will expand three ongoing projects related to the OCO-2 mission. This includes developing tools for mapping atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO2)...
- The University of Colorado, through its Cooperative Institute for Research in Environmental Sciences (CIRES), was awarded a $1,734,905.37 grant by NASA to support the "Atmospheric Carbon and Transport - America" research project. The grant tasks include air sampling, data quality assurance, inventory analysis, flight planning assistance, scientific analysis, and carbon-tracker modeling. This work is in support of the project led by Kenneth J. Davis. The award was made on April 20, 2015...
- This federal contract award to the Carnegie Institution of Washington, doing business as Carnegie Institution for Science, a renowned non-profit research organization, supports fundamental scientific research on early solar system materials. The $318,241.16 grant from NASA's Shared Services Center aims to investigate the formation and evolution of chondrite matrices and chondritic porous interplanetary dust particles, which contain clues about processes in the early solar system. The research...
This federal contract award to the Carnegie Institution of Washington, doing business as the Carnegie Institution for Science, supports the Atmospheric Carbon and Transport-America (ACT-America) mission. The $433,379.00 grant is funded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) and aims to advance society's ability to predict and manage future climate change by enabling policy-relevant quantification of the carbon cycle. The research will develop and demonstrate new atmospheric inversion systems capable of precisely and accurately quantifying carbon dioxide and methane sources and sinks at regional to continental scales. These systems will help evaluate and improve terrestrial carbon cycle models as well as monitor carbon fluxes to support climate change mitigation efforts. The grant does not have a set-aside designation, and the work will be performed in Washington, D.C.
