- This is a grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of Maryland, College Park to conduct research on quantifying dust deposition into oceans through integrating measurements from the CALIPSO lidar and other sensors. The research aims to improve understanding of the role of dust in ocean biogeochemistry and climate change, responding to NASA's solicitation for advancing knowledge of clouds and aerosols in the climate system. The $304,465.15...
- This $608,878 federal grant award from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) was made to the University of Maryland, College Park to conduct research on surface ozone formation and atmospheric composition in the Mid-Atlantic region. The research will leverage observations from prior aircraft field missions, including the NASA-sponsored DISCOVER-AQ, OWLETS, and LISTOS campaigns, to characterize the vertical distribution and diurnal variations of ozone precursors. This analysis,...
- This is a $199,924 research grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of Maryland, College Park to conduct research on computational simulation of non-gravitational forces on particles near small planetary bodies. The grant, with a period of performance through June 1, 2023, is an Early Career Award that builds on the awardee's existing expertise in this field. The University of Maryland, College Park is a state-controlled institution of higher...
- This is a $123,328 federal grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of Maryland, College Park. The grant is for a research project titled "Exploring A-Train Observations of Land-Ocean Contrast in Convective Cloud Characteristics and Their Ambient Environment Toward Improving GCM Cumulus Parameterizations."
