Our group at #AMS2022
#AMS2022 kicked off today online. While we're not as busy as we were recently at #AGU2021, we have several talks worth highlighting:
On Wednesday morning at 10:45am EST, Prof. Westervelt presents 9B.6 Closing the Air Pollution Data Gap in Sub-Saharan Africa through Capacity Building, International Networking, and Data Science Methods. He will highlight some of recent data collection and networking efforts with a focus on a pilot project in Kinshasa based on McFarlane et al. 2021a
It'll be a busy Wednesday as PhD student Garima Raheja presents 11B.2 PM2.5 Measurements and Regional Trend Assessments from Low-Cost Sensor Networks in Accra, Ghana, and Lome, Togo, which will highlight her recent work on LCS data analysis and calibration in West Africa. Prof. Westervelt is also co-chairing session 11B with his colleague Prof. Solomon Bililign, from North Carolina A&T.
Also on Wednesday in 11B, 11B.6 Changing PM2.5 and the Related Meteorology over India from 1950 to 2014: A New Perspective from a Chemistry–Climate Model Ensemble, presented by current Harvard PhD student and former Lamont/CU undergraduate research with Prof. Westervelt and Prof. Arlene Fiore.
And still on Wednesday, in 11.A, 11A.6 Evaluating the Sensitivity of Remote Tropospheric Oxidation in a Global Chemistry–Climate Model Using an Observation-Based Proxy presented by EPA Postdoc Colleen Baublitz (former Lamont PhD Student)
On to Thursday, at 9:45am EST, I'll be showcasing our NSF-funded "Clean Air Monitoring and Solutions Network" project here: 13B.2 An International Network of Networks for Obtaining Useful, Actionable Air Quality Data from Low-Cost Sensors.
Please stop by and ask questions if you are attending AMS on Wednesday or Thursday!
