Portable high precision nitrogen gas analyzer for eddy covariance flux measurements
SBC: SOUTHWEST SCIENCES INC Topic: 861Recent research has suggested that the commonly used assumption of dry air having no net flux is erroneous and can lead to significant errors in reported observations for eddy correlation flux measurements. If the density of nitrogen was measured directly, the accuracy of these measurements would be improved greatly. Southwest Sciences, Inc. proposes to develop a portable analyzer that would be us ...

GlobalSense: A New Atmospheric Observing System Featuring Innovative Airborne Probes
SBC: MANO NANOTECHNOLOGIES INC Topic: 861The underlying framework for modern-day weather forecasting is numerical weather prediction (NWP). Even the current and planned weather observing platforms leave gaps that are insufficient to meet the requirements of NWP. Mano Nanotechnologies, Inc. proposes to commercialize a new environmental sensing system, known as “GlobalSense”, which will enable transformational forecast improvements by ...

Commercial Verde- Phase II
SBC: Fernandez, Steven Topic: 851The wide spread use of NOAA developed products including future climate scenarios, weather products, and infrastructure impacts are not used as widely by public decision makers or the public as possible because it is difficult to explore the data without expensive help manipulating the data or expressing their queries. The technical objective is to establish a prototype service and platform for we ...

Ultra High Sensitivity SWIR Methane Imaging Camera
SBC: AMETHYST RESEARCH INC Topic: 861Methane is the third most prevalent greenhouse gas, whose atmospheric concentration is currently over 1.7 ppm and is about 21 times more potent when compared to CO2. Thus, while the quantitative monitoring of methane levels is necessary, it is also critically important to directly identify the sources of the methane emissions, for example, in ice floes, leaks in pipelines, and also from drilling/f ...

Analysis and Improvement of Trivalent Chromium Conversion Coatings for Aluminum Alloys
SBC: American Research Corporation of Virginia Topic: N/AThe trend toward replacement of highly toxic chemicals with less hazardous alternatives has created the demand for replacement of chromate conversion coatings for corrosion protection of aluminum alloys. Aluminum alloys are the predominate structural material used in aircraft because of their high strength-to-weight ratios, affordability and processability. Aluminum is subject to catastrophic fail ...
