The National Park Service is offering this cooperative agreement task agreement to Colorado State University, operating under the Rocky Mountain CESU cooperative agreement. This grant is for the critical purpose of developing advanced instrumentation specifically designed to accurately measure and understand the intricate relationship between ambient air quality levels and night sky visibility. The ongoing requirement seeks to significantly enhance our ability to quantify precisely how various atmospheric conditions, including pollutants, impact the clarity and perception of celestial objects. This research is vital for preserving the natural dark skies within national park systems, supporting crucial conservation efforts, and ultimately improving the visitor experience of natural night environments.
