TEMPO Science Team Meeting in Huntsville
This week, the TEMPO Science Team Meeting is taking place at the University of Alabama, Huntsville. Jeff is participating on a panel discussing the instrument's capabilities to resolve fine spatial gradients in pollution.
This will be the first meeting since the launch of TEMPO in April (time lapse photo below, with details here)!
Seminar at MIT
This week, Jeff is the invited speaker in MIT's Program in Atmospheres, Oceans, and Climate Seminar Series. In this talk, Jeff will discuss the group's activities related to ground-based remote sensing of coastal air quality and relevance for new satellite-based observations.
American Chemical Society Meeting in Indianapolis
This week, Jeff is in Indianapolis to speak at the Spring 2023 American Chemical Society Meeting. His talk is called "Sources and Sinks in the Biosphere: Advancing the Predictive Capacity of Ecosystem-Atmosphere-Chemistry Interactions".

WMO Measurement-Model Fusion for Global Total Atmospheric Deposition Workshop
This week, Jeff is participating in the World Meteorological Organization's Measurement-Model Fusion for Global Total Atmospheric Deposition Workshop, being held virtually and in person in Geneva.
Jeff is giving two talks about research and developments in the Geddes Group: (1) "A Pilot Project for Operational Global O3 Surface Flux Estimates"; and (2) "What is the View from Space? Opportunities and Challenges in Satellite-Informed Methods for Total Atmospheric Deposition Estimates".
CGCS Distinguished Lecture at the University of Toronto
This week, Jeff is in Toronto giving a seminar for the University of Toronto Centre for Global Change Science's Distinguished Lecture Series. The title of this talk is, "Contemporary and Future Changes in Biosphere-Atmosphere-Chemistry Interactions".
Visiting Salt Lake City
This week, Jeff is in Salt Lake City visiting the University of Utah. He is checking in on our Pandora deployment, and giving a seminar for the Department of Atmospheric Sciences seminar series. The title of his talk is, "Challenges and Opportunities in Coastal Urban Air Quality Monitoring: Lessons from the Boston Basin".
Congratulations, Anthony!
Congratulations to Anthony Wong, who successfully defended his PhD dissertation today! A milestone for him and for our group! His thesis includes three already published works on the role of the terrestrial biosphere on modulating atmospheric reactivity and air quality. Anthony will be moving on to a postdoctoral position at MIT.
10th International GEOS-Chem (IGC10) Meeting
This week, Jeff is traveling to St. Louis for the 10th International GEOS-Chem Meeting.
As co-chair of the Chemistry-Ecosystem-Climate Working Group, Jeff will be participating in discussions about model development and priorities. He is also presenting a poster of Anthony's latest work, called "Impact of Global Climate and Land Use Change on Soil Reactive Ntirogen Emissions".
