FRAPPE/DISCOVER-AQ Sampling Campaigns

 

 

         In support of two larger air quality studies taking place in Colorado during summer 2014, our research group from the University of Colorado, Boulder (with the Mechanical Engineering Dept.) will make measurements using a low-cost technology, made in house, that will provide the larger studies with data on small-scale spatial variability.  We will place ~20 monitors throughout the front range, with the majority inside of a 10x10 km square (approximately the size of a satellite remote sensing grid cell) centered at the Boulder Observatory Tower in Erie, CO.  The collaborative nature of this project will also give us the opportunity to compare our low-cost instruments to others currently under development as well. 

 

In collaboration with:

 

DISCOVER-AQ (Deriving Information on Surface conditions from Column and Vertically Resolved Observations Relevant to Air Quality): A NASA (National Aeronautics and Space Administration) lead effort to better understand what remotely collected data (satellite data) can tell us about air quality at a ground level. http://discover-aq.larc.nasa.gov/

 

FRAPPE (Front Range Air Pollution and Photochemistry Experiment): A collaborative effort lead primarily by NCAR (National Center for Atmospheric Research), which brings together airplane measurements and ground-level measurements, and high and low-cost measurement technologies and methods to better characterize summer-time air quality and ground-level ozone in the Front Range.  https://www2.acd.ucar.edu/frappe
