OBJECTIVE Nephelometers and filter based measurements are important tools used to study particulates and their role in air quality and climate. AirPhoton experts will explain the basics of these instruments, the different types of nephelometers and will also discuss the technical details of what we truly can and cannot learn from these measurements. SCHEDULE 8:00 to 8:05: Introduction – Rich Kleidman 8:05 to 8:25: Types of nephelometers and what they can and cannot measure. Can you use them to measure particle mass? - Rich Kleidman 8:25 to 8:35: Examining sample nephelometer data. -Rich Kleidman 8:35 to 8:45: Q&A about nephelometers - J. Vanderlei Martins 8:45 to 8:55: Filter based measurements - Rich Kleidman 8:55 to 9:00: Final Q&A - J. Vanderlei Martins
Part Two: The SPARTAN Network - The cutting edge of global air quality science. August 10th, 2017. 8 AM EDT. Approximate duration 1 hour. Presented by: Crystal Weagle, SPARTAN Network Instrument and Field Coordinator This presentation has been completed. A recording is available on Vimeo. To access the recording or to download the presentation please click here OBJECTIVE SPARTAN is an emerging global network dedicated to studying particulate air pollution and its effect on human health. SPARTAN is at the cutting edge of the science of air quality by combining the use of in-situ, satellite and model data. For more information on the SPARTAN network please see their website: www.spartan-network.org SCHEDULE 8:00 to 8:05: Introduction 8:05 to 8:25: What is SPARTAN? How is SPARTAN different than other networks? 8:25 to 8:40: How does SPARTAN use in-situ measurements? 8:40 to 8:50: How can I join SPARTAN or learn how to use your techniques to study air quality? 8:50 to 9:00: Q&A
