Research and Monitoring Activities

This page referenced by section 2.5 of A.4 amendment 43

Numerous organizations are engaged in research and monitoring activities within the ABoVE Study Domain.  Investigators preparing proposals for ABoVE may wish to consider developing synergistic research collaborations with investigations sponsored by these organizations. The person identified as the point of contact for each organization below is prepared to discuss such collaborations with investigators preparing proposals for ABoVE and/or assist investigators in contacting the appropriate individual(s) within the organization with whom to engage in such discussions.  Investigators contacting these persons should take care to be considerate of their time and respectful of any constraints and/or limitations on their ability to help.

Please be aware that the list below is not intended to be exhaustive or exclusive.  Its intent is to identify those organizations with which NASA has established there is mutual interest in future ABoVE collaboration(s) and that are willing to be so identified.

If you are aware of additional programs that have an interest in collaborating with ABoVE and would like to be included on this list, please have them contact peter.griffith@nasa.gov.
