- This federal contract award is a $213,196 research grant from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Shared Services Center to Aerodyne Research Inc. (ARI), a for-profit manufacturer and R&D services provider. The grant funds a collaborative project between ARI and researchers at the University of Colorado, Boulder to conduct measurements of ambient aerosol particles using ARI's aerosol mass spectrometry (AMS) instruments. The project aims to improve the calibration of...
- 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 $690,489.00 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the Regents of the University of Colorado, doing business as the University of Colorado Office of Contracts and Grants Division, for a research project focused on characterizing the volatility of organic aerosols (OA) in the atmosphere. The project aims to leverage data from multiple NASA and National Science Foundation (NSF) airborne measurement campaigns to develop improved parameterizations of...
- The University of Colorado, through its Office of Contracts and Grants Division, has been awarded a $135,000 training grant from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to improve the interpretation of remote sensing data on stratospheric and upper tropospheric aerosols. The research objective is to enhance the stratospheric aerosol simulation capabilities in the Goddard Earth Observing System Version 5 (GEOS-5) model by further developing the Community Aerosol and Radiation...
- This is a $150,000.00 grant award from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to Colorado State University for a research project titled "ASSESSING THE ROLE OF NEAR-CLOUD AEROSOLS IN RADIATION BUDGET USING RETRIEVALS FROM 3D RADIATIVE TRANSFER AND MACHINE LEARNING (STUDENT CHEN-KUANG YANG)". The grant is for a research project to assess the impact of near-cloud aerosols on the Earth's radiation budget using advanced modeling techniques. Colorado State University,...
- The University of Colorado has been awarded a $1.08 million research grant by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to support the Cloud and Aerosol Monsoonal Processes Philippines Experiment (CAMP2EX). Under this contract, the Atmospheric Radiation Group at the University of Colorado will deploy the Solar Spectral Flux Radiometer (SSFR) aboard a NASA P-3B aircraft to measure spectrally resolved shortwave irradiance. The primary objective is to characterize the atmospheric...
- This is a $69,646 grant awarded by the Shared Services Center of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the National Institute of Aerospace Associates (NIA), a non-profit research and graduate education institute. The grant, titled "INVESTIGATING THE SOURCES OF STRATOSPHERIC AEROSOLS WITH BALLOON BORNE IN SITU MEASUREMENTS DURING THE DCOTTS PROJECT," is for research related to stratospheric aerosols, with a period of performance ending on December 31, 2025. NIA,...
- This is a $756,429 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the Nevada System of Higher Education's Desert Research Institute (DRI) to conduct research on the impacts of black carbon aerosols on atmospheric temperature and cloud cover. The research aims to better understand the "semi-direct effect" of absorbing aerosols on cloud processes across different global regions. The study will leverage satellite data from instruments like CALIPSO,...
- This is a $948,852 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to The Regents of the University of Colorado (CU), doing business as the University of Colorado, for a research project titled "AIRBORNE INVESTIGATION INTO SOURCES, PATHWAYS AND BUDGETS OF URBAN SOA AND SIA.PRODUCTION AND EVOLUTION OVER ASIAN MEGACITIES". The grant is for a research project focused on studying the sources, pathways, and budgets of urban secondary organic aerosols (SOA) and...
- The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) awarded a $361,407.85 grant to the Regents of the University of Colorado, doing business as the University of Colorado Office of Contracts and Grants Division, to perform research on the Stratospheric Aerosol and Gas Experiment III on the International Space Station (SAGE III-ISS). The work will entail measuring in-situ profiles of stratospheric aerosol size distributions using newly developed optical particle and condensation nuclei...
This is a $350,135.38 grant award from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of Denver to collaboratively update the aerosol observing capability of high-altitude NASA aircraft. The award will fund the building, calibration, and flight-testing of a new Upper Troposphere and Lower Stratosphere (UTLS) Aerosol Measurement Package (UTLS-AMP). This package includes several updated instruments, such as the Nucleation-Mode Aerosol Size Spectrometer (NMASS), Ultra-High Sensitivity Aerosol Spectrometer (UHSAS), and Printed Optical Particle Spectrometer (POPS), which will allow characterization of UTLS particles from 4 to 3000 nanometers in diameter. The project involves a direct collaboration between the University of Denver and NASA's Langley Research Group. There is no set-aside designation for this award.
