- Description
- NASA/GSFC negotiated and awarded a sub-task order with Northrop Grumman TASC tosupport scientists in their efforts to simulate the impact of current and projectedglobal commercial aviation emissions on climate. This research effort will be performedunder existing Task Order NNG06HN01D which is indefinite-quantity, indefinite delivery.The goal of this Sub-Task Order is to research the sensitivity of atmospheric ozone,methane, and the atmospheric thermal radiation balance to aircraft exhaust emissions ofnitrogen oxides and water vapor. Northrop Grumman shall complete baseline andperturbation simulations of chemical transport model. Once initial test model runs arevalidated, the contractor shall perform simulations with projected aircraft emissions andassist GSFC as needed in the assessment of the climate impact of these emissions onatmospheric ozone, methane, and thermal radiation balance. For these simulations, thecontractor shall be responsible for 1)generating model simulations with NASA's ModelingAnalysis and Prediction program workflow tool; 2)archiving the workflows as informationabout the data produced for the runs so that others are able to run the same simulationsat a future date; 3)archiving the model results and analyses in an organized and easilyaccessible manner on an appropriate storage media; and 4)generating documentationdescribing the model runs and the location of the model data. The existing Task Order isa Cost-Plus-Award-Fee arrangement awarded to Northrop Grumman 10/2005. A cost-typecontract provides the flexibility required to accommodate changes in program requirementswhich could potentially be substantial. CPAF was determined appropriate because thecontract is for the performance of research and development effort, and uncertaintiesinvolved in contract performance do not permit costs to be estimated with sufficientaccuracy to use any type of fixed-price type contract.Point of ContactName: Lynne Hoppel Title:Contracting Officer Phone:301-286-3035 Fax: 301-286-0268 E-mail: Lynne.C.Hoppel.1@gsfc.nasa.gov <P>--------------------------------------------------------------------------------Government-wide Notes NASA-Specific Notes --------------------------------------------------------------------------------You may return to Business Opportunities at: NASA GSFC listed by [Posted Date | Classification Code] NASA Agencywide listed by [Posted Date |Classification Code] <P>--------------------------------------------------------------------------------<P>Estimated Noncompetitive Value (including Options)Est.
