Facilitating atmospheric chemistry research towards a sustainable world
ANNOUNCMENT: IGAC 2021 Conference Moves to Virtual Format
IGAC has always been an inclusive scientific community with an emphasis on collaborations within the international community. We believe that the uncertainty surrounding COVID-19’s containment and ongoing international travel restrictions would make an in-person conference less inclusive than a virtual conference.
What: The second phase of the Tropospheric Ozone Assessment Report (TOAR-II) was announced during the TOAR-II Quickstart Event on September 16, 2020. We are now inviting the research community to attend a workshop with four 2-hour online sessions in early 2021 to develop the science questions and analyses that will form the foundation of the assessment report. This will be an interactive event with several breakout sessions and feedback opportunities.
Dear colleagues,
We would like invite all of you to the workshop organized by AMIGO (Analysis of eMIssions usinG Observations) of the IGAC (International Global Atmospheric Chemistry) project.
The title of the workshop is: Changes in atmospheric composition during the Covid-19 lockdowns
The workshop will be held online via zoom on November 3rd at
8:00 a.m., U.S. Mountain time, i.e. 3:00 p.m. UTC / GMT;
4:00 p.m. in Paris/Berlin/Madrid; 8:30 p.m. in Delhi; and
11:00 p.m. in Beijing.
Langley DeWitt is an atmospheric chemist with a global perspective, whose research has spanned three continents, two oceans, two planets, and a couple eons of time. For her Ph.D. work in Analytical and Atmospheric Chemistry at the University of Colorado in Boulder, CO, USA she performed laboratory experiments to form and analyze aerosols relevant to the early Earth and Titan.
The second phase of the Tropospheric Ozone Assessment Report (TOAR-II) is beginning with an open call to the research community to build the assessment and coordinate new studies on ozone’s global distribution and trends, as well as impacts on human health, vegetation and climate. To get involved with this grass roots effort please attend the TOAR-II Quickstart Event on September 16, 2020.
