This is a $379,999.63 grant award from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of Maryland, College Park for air quality and bromine research. The grant is focused on two main tasks: 1) evaluating and improving air quality models using NASA satellite and field campaign data to understand the relationship between surface ozone, nitrogen oxides, and volatile organic compounds; and 2) computing the stratospheric burden of bromine monoxide to quantify the...
This $422,356.66 federal grant was awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to The Johns Hopkins University, a private research university in Baltimore, Maryland. The grant supports research to analyze satellite measurements and climate model simulations of trace gases in the tropical lower stratosphere, with the goal of improving understanding of stratospheric composition, variability, and long-term trends. The research aims to characterize differences in trace gas...
This is a $161,787.85 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of Miami's Rosenstiel School of Marine and Atmospheric Science division. The grant supports a research project to improve estimates of the South Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (SAMOC) volume transport at 34.5°S using a combination of coastal altimetry data and in-situ measurements. The project aims to compare the improved SAMOC transport estimates to independent data...
The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) awarded a $210,214 grant to the University of Miami's Research Administration - Coral Gables Division, doing business as University of Miami Coral Gables, for a stratospheric balloon mission to map ionized gas in star-forming regions. This research grant, awarded on January 30, 2020, will enable detailed 3D mapping of galactic and extragalactic star-forming regions via simultaneous observations of the [NII] 122 μm and 205 μm fine structure...
