During Dec 26-28, the Air-Omics Squad (“爱米小分队”) completed the third year of fish plan (“咸鱼”计划) with the freshman and  international members: Yifan, Nigar and William. We also have Yingjian and Mengqiu with us. Under the guidance of veterans, the students were divided into groups, equipped with gloves, masks, knifes, and enthusiasm to cut the fish samples. What a richly staffed group for such meaningful programme!

Regular Air Sampling Campaign at Nanling Initiated

On the 20th of December, the regular air sampling campaign was initiated in Nanling Atmospheric Monitoring Site.  Shizhen, Bolong, Lele, Kun, Jianchu and Weiru set up two active air samplers as well as one passive bulk deposition collector on the rooftop of the station. Atmospheric particulate and gaseous samplesand bulk deposition samples will be collected synchronically at the 3 key sites including Heshan (receptor site), Guangzhou (urban site) and Nanling (Background site). We look forward to fruitful results from this fieldwork.
