This federal contract award, valued at $160,991.00, was granted by the Shared Services Center (SSC) of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University Corporation for Atmospheric Research (UCAR), a non-profit consortium that manages the National Center for Atmospheric Research (NCAR). The award will fund a 2-year study to better understand the tertiary ozone maximum, a seasonal feature in the upper atmosphere, using data from various satellite and ground-based instruments. The goal is to improve the representation of odd oxygen chemistry and the atmospheric response to solar and terrestrial inputs in climate models. This work is highly relevant to NASA's decadal science goal of determining the dynamics and coupling of Earth's magnetosphere, ionosphere, and atmosphere. The award does not have a set-aside designation.
