The National Science Foundation (NSF) awarded a $797,203 Project Grant under its Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) to the University of California Irvine (UC Irvine). The goal of this 3-year project, with an end date of January 2027, is to better understand how photochemical reactions in the solid or liquid phase of organic compounds affect the key properties of organic aerosol in the atmosphere. The research will focus on secondary organic aerosol (SOA) and/or biomass burning organic aerosol...
This National Science Foundation (NSF) Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) Project Grant award of $709,720 to the University of California, Irvine (UC Irvine) aims to quantitatively assess the influence of salt on the aqueous partitioning of water-soluble organic gases in the atmosphere. The key objectives of the 3-year project are to: Measure the effects of atmospherically relevant inorganic salt mixtures on partitioning of ambient water-soluble organic gases in diverse environments; Characterize...
This $1,882,550 National Science Foundation project grant supports research into the evolution of secondary organic aerosol (SOA) formation processes in urban atmospheres. Funded under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050), the three-year award to the University of Colorado will investigate the key gas-phase precursors and sources contributing to SOA, and evolution of associated chemistry over the past decade. A six-week field campaign in the Los Angeles area in summer 2022 aims to compare...
This National Science Foundation (NSF) Geosciences program Project Grant award to the University of California, Irvine (UC Irvine) provides $772,000 over a 3-year period from February 2024 to January 2027. The award supports research to study secondary organic particle oxidation mechanisms using novel mass spectrometry techniques, including Matrix Assisted Ionization Mass Spectrometry (MAI-MS) and Easy Ambient Sonic-Spray Ionization Mass Spectrometry (EASI-MS). The objectives are to: 1)...
This three-year project grant from the National Science Foundation Division of Atmospheric and Geospace Sciences provides $195,299 to the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill for research characterizing the cloud formation properties of secondary organic aerosol formed from aqueous multiphase chemical processes.
