Wind-in-his-hair campaign on action

On Oct 10th, a small group of us went to the Heshan air monitoring supersite, to setup air sampling machines on the rooftop of the station building. This denotes that the field sampling campaign is on action, of which the objectives are to monitor and estimate the emissions of various pollutants (POM, POPs) and CO2  etc from the PRD city cluster, by means of down-wind observations and modeling. The name of the campaign, Wind-in-his-air (风中散发-Emission in the wind), is adapted from the name of an Indigenous Indian in the Oscar Academy-winning movie ‘Dances with Wolves’ (与狼共舞). The campaign is led by Shizhen, joined by Li Jing (modelling), Yao Chuxin (POM), Li Pingyang (CO2), and many of the Air-Omics squad members.  Occasionally, the wind field shifted to NNE from SE on the day, which is a sign of success.

Near-ground NNE wind started right on the day.

PAHs in Bangladesh by PUF-PAS published in AE

The PAHs results from the PUF-PAS sampling in Bangladesh has been published in AE, in the paper entitled ‘ Monitoring of atmospheric polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons by
polyurethane foam-passive air samplers in Bangladesh: Source
apportionment and health risk assessment‘. The paper was written by Prof Habib of Dhakar University, and Aklima (with Prof Cai Minggang, affiliated to Xiamen University), who visited the group many times and deployed many of the passive samplers across the country with Habib. Shizhen finalized the manuscript and monitored the processes. All are of the best!

This is an ANSO MORATOXA project contribution.

Lin Tian and Zhao Zhen visit the group

On August 24-26, Lin Tian and Zhao Zhen came back to pay a visit to the group for a discussion of collaboration between the two bodies. They visited the lab, and  of cause had dinners and lunches together with several group members. They have at moment two MSc students visiting the group, and suppose to send more in the future. Time goes by and they stay well and have done well with their jobs in Shanghai Ocean University.  In the picture there is Li Jing who the same as Zhao Zhen stayed in HZG in Germany with Dr Xie Zhiyong (谢志勇); and Weiru one of whose teachers in Chongqing University was Wang Fengwen(王锋文) who studied with Professor Guo Zhigang ( 郭志刚), as Lin Tian did. Complicated?
