Learn how a new Geostationary Earth Orbit – Low-Earth Orbit (GEO-LEO) Dark Target Aerosol product suite at NASA's #LAADSDAAC can provide more frequent aerosol measurements for studying aerosol plumes from dust storms and wildfires. Webinar registration: go.nasa.gov/4bqXsDy

ICYMI: The "Introduction to NASA's GEO-LEO Dark Target Aerosol Data Products" Earthdata webinar is now available for viewing online. #airquality #aerosols ➡️Check it out on our NASA Earthdata YouTube channel at: go.nasa.gov/3Vr13uI

TEMPO can help us track emissions from fires. See the #PostFire NO2 emissions in this video.

🔥🌎 Intense wildfires in Siberia have sent massive amounts of smoke across the Arctic Ocean as the #borealwildfire season intensifies, with ongoing fires in Canada & Alaska. #CopernicusAtmosphere is closely monitoring the situation 👉 atmosphere.copernicus.eu/smoke-over-arc…

New Data! A new Global Urban Polygons and Points dataset (GUPPD), v1 (1975 – 2030) at NASA's Socioeconomic Data and Applications Center (#SEDAC) provides 123,034 urban settlements with place names and population in five-year increments. Access data: go.nasa.gov/3WH8WxK

New paper! Interested in the effect of Alaskan wildfires on air pollution? Read how HAQAST researchers provide a method to estimate surface PM2.5 from satellite aerosol optical depth (AOD). buff.ly/3MnsRMw Jingqiu Mao Pawan Gupta

This is a brilliant idea for a creative outreach tool from the folks at NASA Earth to spell your name with images from the Landsat missions. I love mine on 🛰️ images, go try yours here. Happy weekend! landsat.gsfc.nasa.gov/apps/YourNameI…

AGU_GeoHealth NASA’s MAIA mission will use satellite data to study how air pollution affects human health! Use this interactive tool to learn about MAIA target areas, explore their geospatial characteristics, and access ground PM2.5 and PM10 data from these regions maia.jpl.nasa.gov/mmgis/

*New dataset!* This MERRA-2 bias-corrected global hourly surface total PM2.5 mass concentration dataset was led by HAQAST member Pawan Gupta. Pawan Gupta buff.ly/3XnKBO7

A NASA & Department of State partnership is making air quality forecasts available for the roughly 270 U.S. diplomatic posts globally. Using NASA satellite data & computer models, the ZephAir tool now provides three-day forecasts for hazardous PM2.5 air pollution. go.nasa.gov/4graW5j

Yesterday marked the #AutumnEquinox, signaling the official start of astronomical #fall in the Northern Hemisphere! Over the past year, we've gathered a daily image from NOAA's #GOESEast 🛰️, taken at the same time each day. Together, they show the sun's angle shift over time

Stubble burning 🌾🔥has begun in North India. Punjab & Haryana shows 127 firecounts between Sept 19-24. PU-PGI team will keep you updated. Neighboring country #CRB also adds to pollutant load. All stakeholders must collaborate to curb air pollution. #AirQuality #StubbleBurning

According to OpenAQ 39% of all countries & territories don't have access to regularly updated #AirQuality information. See how we're partnering to close that gap 🌫️servirglobal.net/news/3-ways-se… ICIMOD ADPC Alqamah Dr. Reetwika Basu Greg Carmichael's Group UIowa Aaron Naeger Rajesh Kumar

Today 31 Oct is 1st day of #Diwali! Celebrations can exacerbate wintertime #haze in #SouthAsia. Joint Polar Satellite System (JPSS) #VIIRS aerosol optical depth shows widespread thick haze (dark red) but conditions along much of #IndoGangeticPlain clearer than recent years. Pawan Gupta Falguni Patadia

VIIRS aerosol optical depth (AOD) from Joint Polar Satellite System (JPSS) satellites observed thick wintertime smoke & haze (AOD >1, dark red shading) mixed with clouds (missing AOD, grey shading) across South Asia today 24 Dec. NOAA Satellites Falguni Patadia Pawan Gupta

Next IASTA lecture by Prof. Prabir Patra......on a very interesting topic related to #DelhiAirPollution. February 27 @ 16:00 IST Save the date and time...please register for the talk.

GeoColor imagery from NOAA Satellites GOES-East shows thick smoke from intense wildfires in Saskatchewan & Manitoba is moving southward into the US Plains this morning 30 May & degrading PM2.5 air quality in parts of MN, WI & MI. airnow
