Atmospheric Science and Chemistry mEasurement NeTwork (ASCENT) Workshop; Atlanta, Georgia; May 25-26, 2023

“大气科学和化学测量网络(ASCENT)讲习班”将为对能源和土地利用变化、气候变化、公共健康和/或仪器开发感兴趣的与会者提供机会，以促进今后与大气科学和化学测量网络的协作研究。美国国家科学基金会资助的上升网络已经建立，以提供高质量、高时间分辨率的长期气溶胶表征。研讨会将允许研究人员确定研究并利用网络数据来促进对气溶胶来源、化学演化以及随后对人类健康和气候影响的过程级别的了解。上升研讨会将以混合形式在佐治亚理工学院举行，从2023年5月25日星期四上午到5月26日星期五下午。研讨会将由演讲、促进讨论和分组讨论组成。选择讲习班的形式是为了促进公开讨论和非正式交流，这将推动该领域的发展和建立新的合作。研讨会的参与者将来自美国各地的学术界和政府实验室，以及欧洲国家的类似网络。该讲习班的更广泛影响包括开辟了新的研究方向，这些方向将对了解气溶胶来源、化学演变以及随后对人类健康和气候的影响方面的效率和研究进展产生积极的协同作用。研讨会还将促进学术界、产业界和政府之间的合作和知识转移，并加强美国国内和国际上各种测量网络之间的联系。该奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的智力优势和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估，被认为值得支持。

The “Atmospheric Science and Chemistry mEasurement NeTwork (ASCENT) Workshop” will provide opportunities for participants interested in energy and land use change, climate change, public health, and/or instrument development to foster future collaborative studies with the ASCENT network. The NSF-funded ASCENT network has been established to provide high quality, long-term aerosol characterization with high temporal resolution. The workshop will allow researchers to identify studies and utilize the network data to advance process-level understanding of aerosol sources, chemical evolution, and subsequent impacts on human health and climate.The ASCENT workshop will be held at the Georgia Institute of Technology in a hybrid format from Thursday morning, May 25 through Friday afternoon, May 26, 2023. The workshop will be comprised of presentations, facilitated discussions, and breakout sessions. The workshop format is chosen to promote open discussions and informal exchanges that will advance the field and build new collaborations. Workshop participants will come from academia and government laboratories across the U.S. as well as from similar networks operating in European countries. The broader impacts of this workshop include the opening up of new research directions that will have a positive, synergistic effect on the efficiency and research progress in the understanding of aerosol sources, chemical evolution, and subsequent impacts on human health and climate. The workshop will also facilitate collaborations and transfer of knowledge between academia, industry, and government, as well as strengthening connections between various measurement networks within the U.S. and internationally.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.
