Field Projects

 Fluxes or Reactive Organic Gases Seasonal Intercomparison of Chemistry, Lifetime, and Emissions (FROGSICLE)

February 2024

 Minneola, NY


Eddy flux study of reactive organic gases over an urban region plus particle composition and size measurements to understand drivers in winter vs summer (FROG-NY).

Fluxes of AerosoL Continuous Observing Network (FALCON)

2023-2025

Sites across the US


Eddy covariance flux measurements of size resolved particles over multiple landscape surfaces.

Fluxes of Reactive Organic Gases over New York (FROG-NY)

Summer 2023

Mineola, NY


Eddy flux study of reactive organic gases over a residential urban region to understand emissions and deposition of volatile chemical products and other urban sources. We will measure particulate precursors and aerosol to understand pollution sources.
