Center for Interdisciplinary Remotely Piloted Aircraft Studies (CIRPAS) Research Aircraft Support for the Aerosol Characterization Experiment (ACE)-Asia Project

这次跨部门转移到海军研究办公室（ONR）支持2001年春季进行的ACE-Asia（气溶胶表征实验）。ACE-Asia旨在提高我们对东北亚排放并经太平洋输送的自然和人为气溶胶的物理、化学和辐射特性及分布的认识。ACE得到了NSF、ONR、NOAA以及其他国家和国际机构的支持。具体来说，这笔转让涵盖了ONR支持的双水獭飞机的部分部署和运营费用。它还为现场的双水獭和NSF C-130飞机提供卫星支持。

This interagency transfer to the Office of Naval Research (ONR) supports ACE-Asia (Aerosol Characterization Experiment) which took place in Spring, 2001. ACE-Asia was aimed at improving our understanding of the physical, chemical, and radiative properties and distribution of natural and anthropogenic aerosols emitted in Northeast Asia and transported over the Pacific Ocean. ACE was supported by NSF, ONR, NOAA, and other national and international agencies. Specifically, this transfer covers part of the deployment and operational costs for the ONR supported Twin Otter aircraft. It also funds satellite support for the Twin Otter and the NSF C-130 aircraft in the field.
