Fall Meeting of the AGU
The Geddes Group has two presentations at the AGU 2020 meeting (being held virtually). Grad student Anthony Wong will be presenting new work on soil reactive nitrogen emissions (abstract), and grad student Taylor Adams will be presenting preliminary results on COVID-related impacts on air quality in the Boston area as measured from the ground with […]
Welcome to Fernando
The Geddes Group welcomes Fernando Santos, who is joining us as a postdoctoral fellow. Fernando earned a PhD in atmospheric chemistry from the Brazilian Institute for Space Research, and since November 2018 he has held research appointments at the University of Maryland and at NASA Goddard Space Flight Center. We are excited to have him […]
Frontiers of Atmospheric Chemistry Seminar Series
This week, Jeff will be the invited speaker for the Frontiers of Atmospheric Chemistry Seminar Series, co-hosted virtually by MIT, Colorado State University, University of Michigan, Reed College, University of Toronto, and UC Davis. Jeff’s talk is called, “Exploring Contemporary Changes in Biosphere-Atmosphere-Chemistry Interactions”. Be sure to register in advance and tune-in live on Friday, […]
TEMPO Science Team Meeting 2020
This week, the TEMPO Science Team hosts their annual meeting, which is being held virtually this year. Jeff is presenting an update on the Boston-area Pandora measurements. You can view the virtual poster here.
New NOAA Grant Awarded
Jeff is a co-investigator on a recently selected NOAA proposal (“CO2-Air Quality Urban Synthesis and Analysis Project: Trends & Drivers of Urban Emissions from Past, Present, to Future”). This project, involving collaborators from the University of Utah and Harvard University, will explore how climate change may impact the co-emission of greenhouse gases and air pollutants […]
TOLNet/Pandora Science Team Workshop
This week, Jeff will be participating in the TOLNet/Pandora Science Team Workshop, hosted virtually over June 2-4, 2020. In his presentation, Jeff will provide an update on local Pandora measurements made by the group, providing unique and novel insight into urban-scale variability in air quality remote sensing.
WBUR Interview
Jeff was interviewed by Barbara Moran, WBUR Senior Producing Editor for the Environment. They discussed local air quality during the Coronavirus shutdown, and what that might mean in the long term. Read the full story here.
Geddes Group Research featured in “The Brink”
Our work was recently featured in an article of BU’s “The Brink”, discussing how the response to the coronavirus pandemic has changed air pollution around Boston. Read the article here.
New NASA Grant Awarded
Jeff is co-investigator on a recently selected NASA proposal which will provide three years of funding to study satellite remote sensing indicators of ground-level ozone production. The project will be led by principal investigator Sajeev Philip (Universities Space Research Association (USRA) at NASA Ames Research Center), and involve collaborators from several other institutions across the country.
