NASA Atmospheric Composition Ground Networks Supporting Air Quality and Climate Applications

Start Date:
Aug. 8, 2024
End Date:
Aug. 22, 2024
Description:
In this five-part, online, intermediate-level training, multiple NASA networks will participate and provide training on their atmospheric composition ground networks. These networks provide data relevant to aerosol and trace gas column concentrations and vertical structure, supporting applications in air quality and climate.
Targeted Audience:
Primary Target Audience: Air Quality or Climate Application & Research Scientists, Researchers at Environmental Agencies Secondary Target Audience: Students and Early Career Scientists Other Potential Participants: Non-Profit Organizations, Satellite Community Researchers
Expected Outcomes:
By the end of this training attendees will be able to: -Identify the basic characteristics, capabilities, and limitations of the NASA instruments used for ground-based active and passive remote sensing of aerosols, ozone, and NO2. -Recognize how the ground networks presented in the training sustain global long-term observations, support air quality and climate applications, and complement satellite observations. -Access relevant atmospheric composition data from appropriate NASA ground networks for given locations and application purposes. -Compare and jointly analyze specific ground-based atmospheric composition data products with relevant satellite remote sensing data (e.g., satellite aerosol data products) for a given location and time.
