As sensors are getting smaller, cheaper, and more efficient, data collection is no longer limited to high-end users. It can now be done from a variety of commodity platforms such as commercial drones, consumer automobiles, and even the phones in our pockets. We are now collecting more data than humans can interpret manually, and we…

Speaker - Andrew Winters, University of Colorado, Boulder, (hosted by Stu Bishop) Seminar Title - Composite Synoptic-Scale Environments Conducive to North American Polar/Subtropical Jet Superposition Events Abstract -The atmosphere often exhibits a three-step pole-to-equator tropopause structure, with each break in the tropopause associated with a jet stream. The polar jet stream (PJ) typically resides in…
A community-engaged information-gathering effort is being conducted to inform air quality sampling strategy in Colfax, Louisiana, a low income, majority-Black community which hosts a hazardous materials thermal treatment (TT) facility. Our mixed-methods approach combines mapping with qualitative analysis to synthesize information on exposures within Colfax and the nearby community of The Rock, which are proximal…
