- 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...
- 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 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 $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...
- 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...
