The university...
- This is a $1,404,420.05 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the Georgia Tech Research Corporation, a non-profit research organization and state institution of higher education. The grant is for a collaborative research project between U.S. and Korean science teams to conduct multi-platform observations of reactive nitrogen species, sulfur dioxide, and halogen species. The project will involve deploying three chemical ionization mass spectrometry (CIMS)...
- This federal contract award, valued at $118,288.00, was granted by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of Iowa to provide regional-scale air quality modeling in support of the Korea-United States Air Quality (KORUS-AQ) field study. The project aims to improve predictions of dynamic air quality using aircraft, ground network, and satellite data observations, particularly in East Asia. The University of Iowa will utilize a comprehensive air quality prediction...
- This federal contract award with ID NNX15AU17G was granted by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to The University of Iowa to provide regional air quality modeling in support of the KORUS-AQ (Korea-United States Air Quality) research mission. The $250,499.00 grant will fund an interdisciplinary team to utilize a comprehensive air quality prediction system, including data assimilation, to help design, execute, and analyze the KORUS-AQ experiment. The goal is to improve air...
- This is a grant awarded by NASA to the University of Houston System to deploy a small instrument package capable of unattended operation to collect in-situ measurements of ozone (O3) and nitrogen dioxide (NO2) aboard the RIV Onnuri during the KORUS-OC field campaign. The in-situ surface measurements of O3 and NO2 are critical to better characterize boundary layer contributions to total column measurements from remote sensing instrumentation such as PANDORA, GEO-TASO, and OMI satellite. The...
- 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 federal grant award from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of Iowa for a research project related to the interactions and feedbacks between biomass burning and the water cycle. The $165,872.31 grant will fund a study led by Dr. Wang that uses a mesoscale meteorology-chemistry coupled atmospheric model, satellite data, and fire emission data to quantitatively assess the semi-direct effect of sub-Saharan African smoke on atmospheric lapse rate and...
This is a federal grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of Iowa for the Geostationary Trace Gas and Aerosol Sensor Optimization (GEOTASO) instrument. GEOTASO will be deployed on the NASA DC-8 aircraft to measure spatially resolved vertical abundances of trace gases such as nitrogen dioxide, ozone, formaldehyde, and sulfur dioxide, as well as aerosol optical depth, in support of the Korea-US Air Quality (KORUS-AQ) study objectives. The $201,116.00 grant will fund the feasibility evaluation of a new algorithm to retrieve aerosol size and refractive index parameters from GEOTASO's hyperspectral measurements. This grant does not have a set-aside designation, and the University of Iowa is the prime awardee. The work will help prepare for the future deployment of the Tropospheric Emissions: Monitoring of Pollution (TEMPO) and Geostationary Environmental Monitoring Spectrometer (GEMS) instruments on geostationary satellites.
