Long-term Biosphere-Atmosphere chemical flux workshop

Battelle scientist Hongyan Luo for the NEON project will be giving a presentation on NEON's long term biological chemical flux measurement activities. 

The National Academy of Sciences, Board on Atmospheric Sciences and Climate, Committee on the Future of Atmospheric Chemistry Research recently identified priorities and strategic steps forward for atmospheric chemistry research for the next decade in a report titled, “The Future of Atmospheric Chemistry Research: Remembering Yesterday, Understanding Today, Anticipating Tomorrow”. This workshop is an initial step towards addressing one of the recommendations, that “The National Science Foundation should take the lead in coordinating with other agencies to identify the scientific need for long-term measurements and to establish synergies with existing sites that could provide core support for long-term atmospheric chemistry measurements, including biosphere–atmosphere exchange of trace gases and aerosol particles.”
