The Campaign

The Satellite Coastal and Oceanic Atmospheric Pollution Experiment (SCOAPE) was a field campaign designed to test the potential of using satellite data to monitor air quality in and around the Gulf of Mexico. SCOAPE primarily took place in May 2019, although some ground instruments began operating as early as April of that same year. SCOAPE utilized TROPOspheric Monitoring Instrument (TROPOMI) satellite data, along with trace gas in-situ measurements from the research vessel R/V Point Sur and ground instrumentation to study offshore pollution in the Gulf of Mexico. This field campaign was funded by NASA’s Applied Sciences Program with support from the U.S. Department of the Interior and the Bureau of Ocean Energy Management (BOEM).
