Ultra-High Precision Laser Isotope Monitor for I3CO2, CO180 and CO170
SBC: AERODYNE RESEARCH INC Topic: 831RCGreenhouse gas (GHG) emissions are primary drivers of global climate change. Hence there is a crucial need to quantify their sources and sinks. A powerful method to constrain source and sink strengths is the analysis of the relative proportions of isotopic variants of GHG’s in atmospheric samples like those collected globally by NOAA’s Cooperative Air Sampling Network. Measurements that are ca ...

Multi-Purpose Above Surface/Below Surface Expendable Dropsondes (MASED)
SBC: BOSTON ENGINEERING CORPORATION Topic: 842WThere are currently no inexpensive, expendable air-deployed monitoring systems (Dropsondes) that measure atmospheric data and oceanographic as a function of depth. These are important data in predicting the intensity and path of hurricanes. Boston Engineering proposes to provide NOAA with a solution to this challenge with the Multi-Purpose Above Surface/Below Surface Expendable Dropsonde (MASED) p ...

Rapid and Low-Cost Field Toxin Analysis to Monirot Harmful Algal Blooms
SBC: GINER INC Topic: 812NDuring the harmful algal blooms (HAB), marine algal toxins reach concentrations high enough to cause various neurological and gastrointestinal disorders through inhalation of the toxin or consumption of contaminated shellfish. Brevetoxins, produced by dinoflagellate Karenia brevis, are known to disrupt neurological processes to cause an illness called neurotoxic shellfish poisoning. The timely rec ...

Supporting Local Decision Making through a Comprehensive Community Driven Data Tool
SBC: Industrial Economics, Incorporated Topic: 851XA central part of NOAA’s mission is to develop and distribute scientific data, including large-scale climate, weather, marine, and coastal information for regional and national analysis. NOAA has also developed local data gathering tools on an as-needed basis. While these approaches demonstrate the power of local data collection, no existing tool meets the broad needs of environmental community ...
