Atmospheric Chemistry Gordon Research Conference (GRC) on Fundamental Chemistry and Societal Changes; Sunday River, Maine; July 30-August 4, 2023

该项目支持2023年戈登大气化学研究会议。会议的主题是“基础化学和社会变化：从分子到行星尺度塑造空气质量和气候”。本次会议汇集了来自大学，政府实验室和私人研究机构的研究人员，以促进对大气化学当代感兴趣的主题的信息和想法的讨论。研讨会集中讨论该领域的最新发展，包括从分子水平到对地球和空间的全球影响的化学过程的基本认识。这次研讨会的学术价值在于汇集了实验和模拟研究领域的领导者和学者，涵盖大气化学领域的广泛研究，包括源、汇、传输、通过模型、观测和实验研究大气中气体和气溶胶的转化和影响。本次会议将就以下主题举行会议：大气化学和政策，气溶胶形成的化学，不断变化的城市大气，气溶胶-云-化学相互作用，气溶胶粒子化学和性质，气溶胶物理性质的化学演变，从海洋表面到土星卫星的偏远环境，短期气候强迫的先进模型，研讨会的更广泛影响来自于思想交流，这些思想交流有助于使研究界关注最紧迫的问题，并为年轻科学家提供了一个聚会、建立网络、并与大气和科学领域的领导人交换意见。 青年科学家还被邀请参加即将在会议之前举行的ACCESS座谈会（“新兴高级科学家大气化学座谈会”）。戈登大气化学会议对大气科学界产生了广泛的学术影响。该奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的学术价值和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估，被认为值得支持。

This project supports the 2023 Gordon Research Conference on Atmospheric Chemistry. The theme of the conference is “Fundamental Chemistry and Societal Changes: Shaping Air Quality and Climate from the Molecular to the Planetary Scale.” This conference brings together researchers from universities, government laboratories, and private research institutes, to promote the discussion of information and ideas on topics of contemporary interest in atmospheric chemistry. The workshop concentrates on the latest developments in the field, including the fundamental understanding of chemical processes from the molecular level to global impacts on Earth and space.The intellectual merit of this symposium lies in bringing together leaders and scholars in experimental and modeling studies covering a broad range of research in the field of atmospheric chemistry, including research on the sources, sinks, transport, transformation and impacts of gases and aerosols in the atmosphere through models, observations, and experiments. This conference will have sessions on the following topics: atmospheric chemistry and policy, chemistry of aerosol formation, evolving urban atmosphere, aerosol-cloud-chemistry interactions, aerosol particle chemistry and properties, chemical evolution of aerosol physical properties, remote environments from the ocean surface to Saturn’s moons, advancing models of short-lived climate forcings, and methane sources and chemistry.The broader impacts of the symposium derive from the exchange of ideas that help to focus the research community on the most pressing questions, as well as provide an opportunity for young scientists to meet, network, and exchange ideas with leaders in the atmospheric and sciences. Young scientists are also invited to the ACCESS colloquium (“Atmospheric Chemistry Colloquium for Emerging Senior Scientists”) that immediately precedes the conference. The Gordon Conference on Atmospheric Chemistry creates a broad intellectual impact on the atmospheric scientific community.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.
