This week, we completed re-installation of Pandoras throughout the Boston area. Our most recent project focuses on new measurements located in a community near the airport, as well as custom sky scans at multiple locations that will map horizontal variability in trace gases across the city with a focus on advancing new geostationary satellite observations of air quality<\/a>. For this work, we are collaborating with investigators at the Harvard & Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics in Cambridge<\/a>. These measurements also contribute to the larger network of Pandoras in the Pandonia Global Network<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Many thanks to staff from SciGlob<\/a> who were in town to help with deployment. We also gratefully acknowledge collaborators at Boston University’s Department of Environmental Health<\/a>, and the Massachusetts Department of Environmental Protection Air Assessment Branch<\/a>, who provide us with access and support at locations in Chelsea and Lynn.<\/p>\n

See below for pictures of the instruments in the wild, and a map of our deployment! Stay tuned for exciting results…<\/p>\n

Questions about our measurements should be directed to Jeff by e-mail at jgeddes[at]bu.edu.<\/p>\n
