Student Presentation Awards
The following students were the winners of the NADP Scientific Symposium Student Presentation competition. The students were judged on presentation, content, and critical thinking.
- Master’s poster: Abril Lunar (Texas A&M University – Corpus Christi). “Differences Nitrogen Dioxide Deposition Modeled from TROPOMI, Pandora Spectrometer Instruments, and in-situ FEM Networks Across Texas Watersheds“.
- Master’s presentation: IIrina Nistorescu (York University). “Measurement of Gas-Phase Perfluoroalkyl Carboxylic Acids (PFCAs) Using Passive Air Samplers“.
- PhD poster: Randy Tangang (University of Albany). “Individual effects and interactions between ultrafine particles and extreme temperatures on hospital admissions of high burden diseases“.
- PhD presentation: Deni Murray (University of New Hamshire). “Incorporating organic nitrogen into wet deposition estimates pushes sensitive and resilient ecosystems over critical load thresholds“.
About the Meeting
The meeting is intended for scientists, resource managers, educators, students, policymakers, and others interested in atmospheric deposition, air quality, and its effects on aquatic and terrestrial ecosystems. NADP data has been used for decades to understand and solve real-world problems impacting people and the planet, including helping to facilitate cleaner water, healthier air quality, more productive fisheries, informed environmental planning, improved air quality and climate forecasting, and responsible environmental stewardship.
