Welcome to Marissa Lee, who is joining the Geddes group as a work-study student this year. Marissa is an undergraduate student at Boston University, majoring in Earth and Environmental Science with a minor is Remote Sensing and GIS.
Last week, Jeff was quoted in an article from politifact.com discussing the truth in a statement from President Trump about how clean the air and water is in the United States. Thanks to Manuela Tobias for reporting.
Welcome to Taylor Adams, who is joining the Geddes group as a Ph.D. student this fall. Taylor earned a BA in Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering from the University of Tennessee Knoxville. In addition to research with the Geddes group, Taylor will be in the inaugural cohort of the BU URBAN trainee program.
On Monday July 9, the Boston Globe featured an interview with Jeff about his research projects at Boston University. Jeff talks about the importance of understanding the interactions between emissions from natural and human systems, and about sampling air pollution in the Boston area. Thanks to Emily Williams for reporting. To read the full interview, […]
Jeff travels to Boulder, CO this week for the annual TEMPO Science Team meeting. TEMPO is a geostationary satellite instrument that will be dedicated to monitoring tropospheric pollution over North America. Jeff is working on an algorithm to separate the signal of NO2 in the stratosphere from the total atmospheric column, in order to determine the amount of NO2 in the […]
This week, Jeff is in Edmonton to present his research at the 2018 Canadian Society of Chemistry meeting (http://www.csc2018.ca/). His talk is entitled “Investigating Rapid Contemporary Changes in Biosphere-Atmosphere-Chemistry Interactions with a Chemical Transport Model”.
The Geddes Group just finished installation of a direct-sun Pandora 1s spectrometer at the roof of the Earth & Environment building at BU. This 280-525 nm spectrometer (with 0.6 nm resolution) will be able to retrieve atmospheric NO2, HCHO, SO2, and O3 column abundances. Additional units in the coming months will be deployed across the […]
This week, Jeff will be in New Orleans presenting research at the Fall Meeting of the American Geophysical Union (held from 11-15 December). Follow the conference with the #AGU17 hashtag!
Welcome to visiting Ph.D. scholar Lei Liu who will be working with the Geddes research group over the next year. Lei is visiting us from Nanjing University, and is interested in using satellite observations to improve constraints on global nitrogen deposition.
