The University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) received a $362,219 project grant award from the National Science Foundation (NSF) Division of Atmospheric and Geospace Sciences on June 15, 2021 to support research under the NSF's Geosciences program.
Specifically, UCLA will conduct a collaborative research project titled "Multi-Phase Sulfur and Nitrogen Chemistry in Air and Snow during Alaskan Layered Pollution and Chemical Analysis (ALPACA)" through May 31, 2024. As part of the NSF's basic research support for understanding the integrated Earth system, this project will strengthen fundamental knowledge of atmospheric, earth, and ocean sciences by analyzing air and snow chemistry in Alaska to better understand layered pollution impacts. The research aims to advance understanding of sulfur and nitrogen compounds in air and snow through multi-phase chemical analysis. The funding will support UCLA's research activities being conducted at their Los Angeles campus location over the three-year award period.
