General Intro

Purpose of the report & activity

Scope of activity/analysis

This subarea will focus on priority Earth observation needs for air quality parameters that affect public health. Areas of relevance include near real-time air quality observations and forecasts for the purposes of air quality and public health management, research, planning, policy, and public information. Areas of interest may include, for example, levels and transport of ground-level ozone, particle pollution from anthropogenic and natural sources (e.g., wild fires, volcanoes, desert dust), and mercury, as well as dust-based transport of microbes. Black carbon, methane, and photochemical oxidants are of particular interest because of their co-benefits for health and climate change.
