Grant Description: The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), Office of Research and Development (ORD), is seeking applications proposing research on expanding adjoint methods in chemical transport models to account for source attribution of radiative forcing from short-lived climate forcers. Applications may address methods for tracking how emissions of aerosols and their precursors as well as precursors of tropospheric ozone affect radiative forcing and air quality.
