The Geddes Research Group @ AGU 2021
Check out all the great work from grad students and postdocs in the Geddes Research Group at this year's Fall Meeting of the AGU in New Orleans (and virtually)!
Taylor Adams is sharing the analysis of our Pandora NO2 observations throughout the urban Boston region, and implications for evaluations with TROPOMI: https://agu.confex.com/agu/fm21/meetingapp.cgi/Paper/983042
Anthony Wong is discussing modeling of soil reactive nitrogen emissions from climate and land use change in the Community Earth System Model: https://agu.confex.com/agu/fm21/meetingapp.cgi/Paper/900640
Bo Wang is presenting on high resolution modeling of atmospheric chemistry in the Boston region to support geostationary satellite retrievals of air quality: https://agu.confex.com/agu/fm21/meetingapp.cgi/Paper/955989
Fernando Santos is sharing an analysis of the diurnal variability in Pandora total column NO2 observations from multiple NASA field campaigns: https://agu.confex.com/agu/fm21/meetingapp.cgi/Paper/949641
University of Wyoming Seminar
This week, Jeff is presenting at the University of Wyoming's Atmospheric Science Seminar Series. The title of his talk is "Examining the impacts of biosphere-atmosphere-chemistry interactions over decadal timescales".
National Atmospheric Deposition Program Symposium
Jeff has been invited to speak at this week's Fall Science Symposium of the National Atmospheric Deposition Program. He will be discussing the work of the WMO Measurement Model Fusion for Global Total Atmospheric Deposition Initiative, for which he is a steering committee member.
Telluride Science Research Center Workshop
This week, Jeff is participating in a Telluride Science Research Center workshop called Mapping Urban Air: Linking Observations and Processes. Jeff will be presenting the group's work on ground-based remote sensing of urban air quality in Boston. The title of his talk is: Ground- and Satellite-Based Remote Sensing of a Coastal Urban Environment.
CESM Workshop
This week, graduate student Anthony Wong is presenting at the annual Community Earth System Model (CESM) Workshop. Anthony is presenting in the Whole Atmosphere and Chemistry-Climate Working Group Meeting. The title of his presentation is: "Impact of global climate and land use change on soil reactive nitrogen emissions - implication on air quality".
You can watch a recording of his presentation available on the CESM YouTube channel here.
TEMPO Science Team Meeting
This week Jeff is participating in the annual TEMPO Science Team Meeting. TEMPO is a geostationary satellite instrument dedicated to monitoring tropospheric emissions and pollutants over North America, scheduled to launch in 2022. Jeff is involved in algorithm development for TEMPO, and is interested in how ground-based observations can be used to evaluate the satellite-derived products of air quality. Jeff presented an update on the group's Pandora network, "Two Years of Pandora Observations in Boston: Lessons learned with a view towards geostationary satellite validation".
Welcome Sophie!
The Geddes Group welcomes Sophie Abou-Rizk, who is joining the group as a summer research assistant. Sophie is an undergraduate student at the University of Wisconsin-Madison, with interests in atmospheric chemistry. Welcome Sophie!
Environment and Climate Change Canada Seminar
This week, Jeff is the invited speaker for Environment and Climate Change Canada's Air Quality Research Division Seminar Series. The title of his talk is "Air Quality and Surface-Atmosphere Interactions: Modeling and remote sensing from urban-to-global scales".
Dalhousie University Seminar
This week, Jeff will be giving a talk for the Atmospheric Sciences Seminar Series at Dalhousie University in Halifax, Canada. The title of his presentation is, "Exploring Contemporary Changes in Biosphere-Atmosphere-Chemistry Interactions".
Welcome to Jenna
The Geddes Group welcomes Jenna Rindy, who is joining the group as a Ph.D. student co-supervised with Pam Templer of the BU Biology Department. Currently, Jenna is interested in studying the composition and impacts of particulate matter deposited to urban tree canopies. Welcome Jenna!
