Using Urban Infrastructure to Measure Air Quality

Mobile sample collection via urban transit is gathering critical data on air pollution in the Salt Lake valley. A group of U of U researchers have collaborated on a project to better quantify the concentrations of greenhouse gases and pollutants that hover, in varying concentrations, over the valley. The researchers—from the Land-Atmosphere Interactions Research (LAIR) group […]
