NOAA-EPA Scientist-to-scientist meetings: #3 Deposition
February 9, 2005
Plans are now finalizing for the third in the series
of "scientist-to-scientist" meetings set up under the Air Quality Memorandum
of Understanding between EPA and NOAA. The meeting will take place
in Annapolis on 30/31 March 2005.
The first meeting of the series addressed air quality alone. The outcome
of this meeting was an agreement that scientists in both agencies would
start looking into aurban aspects of air quality as soon as could be
arranged.
The second meeting looked into the link between air quality and climate.
The meeting now being planned will focus on atmospheric deposition
-- the link between air quality and related effects on the biosphere.
A fourth meeting is also being planned at this time, to address multi-media
issues related to changes in air quality. This fourth meeting will
probably also take place in Annapolis, in June this year.
