The first instrument,...
- This federal contract award to the University of California, Irvine (UCI) is for the provision of whole air sampling (WAS) from the NASA DC-8 aircraft during the KORUS-AQ field campaign. Under this $649,106.46 grant, UCI will employ its proven technique of combining WAS with laboratory analysis using gas chromatography to provide high-quality measurements of various trace gas species, including nonmethane hydrocarbons, halocarbons, and alkyl nitrates. These measurements will address...
- This is a $478,909.53 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the California Institute of Technology (Caltech) for research related to the Tropospheric Monitoring Instrument (TROPOMI) on the Sentinel-5P satellite. The grant is for a 5-year period from July 1, 2015 to June 30, 2021. The work will involve prototyping the TROPOMI retrieval algorithm, conducting initial data analysis, and performing operational data processing of the TROPOMI data. The research...
- This is a $150,000.00 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the California Institute of Technology (Caltech) for research on the influence of water on the formation of secondary organic aerosols (SOA) via Criegee intermediates and hydrogen peroxides. The award, which has a period of performance ending on November 30, 2027, is not set aside for any specific business category. Caltech, a private research university renowned for its scientific research and...
- This federal contract award is for $600,403.76 to the University Corporation for Atmospheric Research (UCAR), which manages the National Center for Atmospheric Research (NCAR), to provide measurements of nitrogen oxides (NO, NO2, NOy) and ozone (O3) from the NASA DC-8 aircraft during the KORUS-AQ international air quality field study over South Korea. The measurements are critical to addressing the campaign's three key science questions related to satellite observations, ozone photochemistry,...
- This federal contract award to the University of New Hampshire (UNH), through its Office of Sponsored Research, provides $373,914.32 in funding for UNH's contributions to the DC-8 aircraft payload for the KORUS-AQ (Korea-United States Air Quality) field campaign led by NASA's Tropospheric Chemistry Program. The award supports two primary objectives: 1) measurement and analysis of inorganic ions in bulk aerosols, and 2) measurement and analysis of atmospheric distributions of nitric acid and fine...
- This is a grant awarded by NASA to the University of Colorado in the amount of $752,955.23 to conduct research using an Aerodyne Aerosol Mass Spectrometer (AMS) aboard the NASA DC-8 aircraft during the KORUS-AQ field campaign. The research aims to improve understanding of the sources and chemical evolution of organic aerosols (OA) over the Korean Peninsula, which is critical for improving satellite aerosol retrievals and regional air quality models. The University will use the AMS to...
This is a $494,905.57 grant awarded by NASA to the California Institute of Technology (Caltech) to support the KORUS AQ mission. The goal of the mission is to study the physics and chemistry that link tropospheric composition to rapidly changing emissions in Asia. Caltech will deploy its chemical ionization mass spectrometers (CIMS) on the NASA DC-8 aircraft to provide high-resolution in-situ measurements of various gas-phase species, including peroxides, nitrates, and acids, that play key roles in atmospheric oxidant and aerosol chemistry. The grant will also support Caltech's collaboration with the TCCON group in Anmyeondo, Korea to enable validation of the new ground-based measurement site. This is not a set-aside contract, and Caltech is the prime contractor with no major subcontractors listed.
