Gator Team represented at the Final AQAST Meeting at EPA

NASA's Air Quality Applied Sciences Team (AQAST) recently held their tenth and final semiannual meeting at the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Research Triangle Park (RTP) campus.  

As an AQAST PI, Dr. Anne Thompson presented ozone modeling results from past (Dr. Greg Garner) and current (Nikolay Balashov) Gator Team members (photo below).  

Other team members, Dr. Debra Kollonige (MDGatorTeam) and Hannah Halliday (PSUGatorTeam), presented posters on methane signatures over oil and gas operation from satellites (Tiger Team project) and NASA DISCOVER-AQ Colorado benzene analysis respectively.  Both hot topics in regional air quality. The meeting was a nice ending to a successful 5 years of assisting local, regional and national air quality partners and has established a precedent for the upcoming NASA H-AQAST (Health and Air Quality Applied Sciences Team).
