- Description
- SBIR/STTR Program - We are proposing to develop high altitude CO2 analyzertechnology that can be deployed on the research aircraft of NASA's Airborne ScienceProgram (ASP). The ultimate scientific goal is the calibration/validation of CO2observations made from spacecraft. Two forms of the analyzer are to be developed, pod forunmanned aircraft and rack for more general purpose platforms. The CO2 payloads are smalland light enough to perform on all 15 platforms of NASA-ASP, some reaching altitudes ofmore than 65,000' ASL and capable of probing at least 95% of the atmospheric column. Byprior work, we have built a prototype having the appropriate levels of sensitivity (0.10ppmv), bias (<0.10 ppmv) and spatial/temporal resolution (1 Hz). Consequently, we caninitiate our program with Technical Readiness Level (TRL) 5-6. Validation of theprototype was on a piloted aircraft by a second airborne AOS analyzer system of the samespecifications and by flask samples analyzed by NOAA/GMD. Observations, some reachingaltitudes of 26,000' ASL, were referred to the WMO scale of CO2 DMF by use of referencegases. As a result of prior technological and scientific work, our Phase I program canpresent a detailed plan for achievement of TRL 9.
