Program Information
The Student Airborne Research Program (SARP) is a
summer program for rising senior undergraduate
students to acquire hands-on research experience
in all aspects of a scientific campaign using
NASA's DC-8 or P-3B airborne science laboratories.
The DC-8 and P-3 are major NASA resources for
studying Earth system processes,
calibration/validation of space-borne
observations, and prototyping instruments for
possible satellite missions. Participants will
assist in the operation of instruments onboard the
aircraft to sample atmospheric chemicals, and to
image land and water surfaces in multiple spectral
bands.
Research areas include atmospheric chemistry, air
quality, forest ecology, and ocean biology. Along
with airborne data collection, students will
participate in taking measurements at field sites.
