Joint Session 43 Joint Session with the Committee on Atmospheric Chemistry. Part I: Use of Satellite Observations for Air Quality Applications

Wednesday, 10 January 2018: 1:30 PM-3:15 PM
Salon G (Hilton) (Austin, Texas)
Hosts: (Joint between the 20th Joint Conference on the Applications of Air Pollution Meteorology with the A&WMA; and the 20th Conference on Atmospheric Chemistry )
Cochairs:
