Airborne and Mobile Measurements to support NOAA ARL’s Research on Meteorology and Atmospheric Chemistry
Summary
The NOAA Air Resources Laboratory seeks commercial services to provide specialized research aircraft, a mobile ceilometer platform, and a FAA‑compliant unmanned aircraft system equipped with a methane/ethane analyzer for atmospheric measurements over major U.S. metropolitan areas. The effort supports NOAA's meteorology and atmospheric chemistry research by collecting high‑quality airborne and ground data to improve emissions inventories, transport models, and air quality forecasts.
