This National Science Foundation project grant award of $522,605 provides funding from September 1, 2022 through August 31, 2025 to support collaborative research on coastal cloud chemistry during the Eastern Pacific Cloud Aerosol Precipitation Experiment (EPCAPE). Led by the Scripps Institution of Oceanography at the University of California San Diego, with the State of California serving as the parent organization, this research aims to enhance understanding of cloud formation processes to...
This National Science Foundation project grant of $291,231 supports collaborative research on coastal cloud chemistry during the Eastern Pacific Cloud Aerosol Precipitation Experiment campaign. Funded under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050), the award will leverage recent instrumentation developments to augment the Department of Energy's campaign conducted in La Jolla, California from February 2023 to January 2024. Specifically, the University of California, Los Angeles will utilize...
This $596,100 Project Grant awarded by the National Science Foundation's Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) supports research by the University of California San Diego's Scripps Institution of Oceanography to understand the equilibrated response of shallow clouds and large-scale climate. The key objectives are to investigate whether atmospheric adjustments serve to buffer the radiative effects of aerosols on clouds, whether cloud sensitivity to sea surface temperature increases is reduced due...
This federal Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation (CFDA 47.050 - Geosciences) provides $228,070.00 to the Regents of the University of California at Riverside to conduct laboratory studies investigating the influence of particle diameter on viscosity. The research aims to improve understanding of how particle viscosity changes with size, with implications for atmospheric chemistry, climate, and human health. The project will use novel experimental techniques to quantify how...
This Project Grant award, funded by the National Science Foundation's Division of Chemistry (CFDA 47.049 - Mathematical and Physical Sciences), provides $599,648 to the University of California, San Diego (UCSD) from October 1, 2024 to September 30, 2026. The grant supports an integrated research project led by Professors Vicki Grassian and Rommie Amaro to investigate the chemistry of biological macromolecules, such as proteins and environmental DNA, within aqueous aerosols. The project combines...
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 $800,565 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation (NSF) Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) supports research by the University of California San Diego (UCSD) Scripps Institution of Oceanography to explore the meteorological drivers of global mineral dust emissions. The project will leverage high-resolution climate model simulations to investigate the role of two key wind event types - downslope windstorms and haboobs - in generating atmospheric dust, and incorporate the...
The University of California at Riverside will receive $450,000 under a three-year Project Grant from the National Science Foundation Division of Chemistry titled "Collaborative Research: Humidity and Temperature Effects on Phase Separation and Particle Morphology in Internally Mixed Organic-Inorganic Aerosol." The grant funds research from September 2021 to August 2024 under the NSF's Mathematical and Physical Sciences program (CFDA 47.049), which aims to advance scientific...
The National Science Foundation (NSF) awarded a $202,000 Project Grant under the Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) to conduct observational and modeling research on giant sea salt aerosols (GSSA). The award, titled "Bridging the Gap--A Combined Observational and Modeling Approach to Develop a Unified Giant Sea Salt Aerosol Source Function," aims to address critical gaps in understanding the production and vertical mixing of GSSA within the atmosphere above the ocean's surface. The...
