Background

The overarching objective of the ESIP Air Quality Cluster is to connect air quality data consumers with the providers of those data. The AQ Cluster aims to:

• bring people and ideas together on how to network earth science data/service providers with air quality researchers and managers
• facilitate technologies for improving the flow of earth science data to air quality management
• provide a forum for individual projects interested in using and/or sharing services

This website offers a forum for discussions and activities within the Cluster. ([How to edit the wiki])
