Baron AMS (Type III Applications)
- Application excerpt:
- "In this project, an outstanding team of scientists and engineers led by PI John McHenry—who has
pioneered operational-commercial air quality forecasting in the US (McHenry et al., 2004; McHenry and Dabberdt, 2005)—will infuse NASA Earth-Sun System research results from the AURA and MODIS platforms into an extant air quality forecast decision-support system (AQF-DSS). The AQF-DSS runs operationally at Baron Advanced Meteorological Systems (BAMS) high-performance computing facility, colocated with the National Climatic Data Center (NCDC) in Asheville, NC. The core modeling system includes MM5 (with WRF coming online), SMOKE, CMAQ, and MAQSIP-RT."

Global Systems Science (GSS)(Type III Research)
- Application excerpt:
- "Global Systems Science (GSS) is an integrated science program for the first year of high school on the topic of global environmental change. The course emphasizes how scientists from a wide variety of fields work together to understand problems of global impact. The “big ideas” of science are stressed, such as the concept of an interacting system, the co-evolution of the atmosphere and life, the goal of a sustainable world, and the important role that individuals play in both impacting and protecting our global environment."
