August 10 – August 14
• Sample and data analysis
• Sample and data analysis
• Finish report
• UCI chemistry lab for WAS sample analysis
• Data interpretation
• Student presentation of results
• Preparation for report write-up
• Closing
• ENVI/IDL, Matlab, Multispec software for MASTER data analysis • GTA presentations on their research in airborne science

Instruments and Experiments Two Instruments – Three Experiments 2. Whole Air Sampler (WAS) •
Dr. Don Blake will lead an experiment on using in-situ atmospheric measurements for assessing the impact of dairy farm emissions from California’s Central Valley on the atmosphere
4. MODIS/ASTER Airborne Simulator (MASTER) •
Dr. John Ryan will lead an experiment on using multi-spectral imaging data to assess the biological and physical processes that lead to algae blooms in Monterey Bay
•
Dr. Susan Ustin will lead an experiment on using multi-spectral imaging data to assess how agricultural processes are impacting the hydrological and ecological environments of the Sacramento-San Joaquin River System.
ALSO: Meteorology and Modeling component for flight planning…
The potential for airborne science to help communities with realworld problems
Goals The goal of the program is to introduce students to the collaborative and cross-disciplinary potential of airborne science research. • Just from the three experiments mentioned above, you can see that from one flight we can gather data that utilizes geological, atmospheric science, chemical, biological, physical and engineering applications.
Additionally, NASA has recently come to terms with the fact that many of their engineers and scientists will be retiring in the next few years and they are trying to recruit a new workforce. We hope that this mission will eventually recruit a new generation of Earth systems science researchers interested in working for NASA, specifically the Airborne Science Program.
Facebook page for the student mission to generate some enthusiasm and provide a way for students to interact before the mission. Most of the students and some of our faculty are fans of the page and are getting to know each other through this social networking resource. We've also put a few DC-8 videos up on the page - including our ARCTAS video - and this is creating some excitement as the students can get a sense of how the DC-8 is used as a research platform. Join our SARP page to get updates about the mission!
After SARP Products and Resources • Videos of lectures online (NSERCTV and www.nserc.und.edu) by topic • Mission videos (Jane Peterson, NSERC Media Specialist) • For each experiment (science based) • Geared towards generating excitement for future missions • Student reports and presentations (www.nserc.und.edu) Promoting Associations in the Airborne Science Community • Connecting senior undergraduates to potential graduate research advisors • Offering continued research opportunities/data access for current graduate students
