Welcome Kate and Matt!
Our group welcomes Kate Bartlett and Matt Weil, who are joining us as PhD students this fall. Kate has an undergraduate degree from the University of Michigan, and Matt has an undergraduate degree from Ithaca College. A warm BU welcome, Kate and Matt!
International GEOS-Chem Meeting
This week, GEOS-Chem users from around the world are meeting in St. Louis for IGC 11. The meeting focuses on science and model developments, including themed breakout sessions. Jeff presented a poster titled, "Modeling and Remote Sensing of the Diurnal Variability in NO2 and HCHO: Results from Boston and Salt Lake City". Jeff also co-chaired a working group discussion on surface-atmosphere exchange processes in GEOS-Chem.
HAQAST Massachusetts
Last week, Jeff was part of a panel at the NASA Health and Air Quality Applied Science Team workshop, hosted by MIT. Jeff discussed how the ground-based Pandora network can support the interpretation of satellite-based retrievals of trace gases. You can watch Jeff's short presentation here.
