2008 Telluride Workshop on Organic Aerosols

Speakers and Titles

  • 1 Urs Baltensperger, Paul Scherrer Institut - "Nucleation, growth, and aging of secondary organic aerosol"
  • 2 Joost DeGouw, NOAA - "Can we Quantify Biogenic SOA from Aircraft Measurements over the U.S.?"
  • 3 Neil Donahue, Carnegie Mellon
  • 4 Stefano Decesari, CNR Italy
  • 5 Rob Griffin, University of New Hampshire - "Combined NMR/isotope ratio MS analyses on some of our ambient samples"
  • 6 Colette Heald, UC Berkeley - "Modeling Organic Aerosol: Where are we going wrong?". (In my talk I’ll review standard model organic aerosol treatments ­ highlighting what we include and what is deficient with a focus on what we have learned from comparisons with field campaign observations)
  • 7 Jose-Luis Jimenez, University of Colorado - "Quantification, Evolution, and Properties of POA and SOA from Field and Source Measurements"
  • 8 Murray Johnston, University of Delaware - ""Top-Down" vs. "Bottom-Up" Organic Aerosol Characterization: What do they tell us and are they consistent?" (I'm going to talk about a combination of three topics: time-resolved molecular composition of urban aerosol by PIAMS, time-resolved O:C ratios of organic components in nanoparticles with NAMS (urban and coastal locations); atomic vs. molecular composition measurements of laboratory (and possibly ambient) SOA.)
  • 9 Maria Kanakidou, University of Crete - "Global Modeling of the Oceanic source of Organic Aerosols: Primary and Secondary sources." (Recent observations in the marine atmosphere reveal the presence of organic matter associated with sea-salt aerosol. Primary marine OA (POA) is directly emitted via interaction of wind stress with the ocean surface. Secondary marine OA (SOA) formed via gas-to-particle conversion and via multiphase chemical processes. The global importance of these POA and SOA marine sources is investigated here using a 3-dimensional global chemistry transport model. The emissions of marine POA are parameterized as fraction of sea-salt emissions and depend on ocean productivity taken proportional to chlorophyll-a observed by MODIS. Wind speed data are taken from ECMWF. The marine SOA is calculated considering isoprene oxidation by both gas and aqueous phase processes. Model results are evaluated by comparison with observations. The annual global marine source of POA and SOA is derived and its environmental significance is discussed. This work is performed within the EU funded project MAP)
  • 10 Sonia Kreidenweis, Colorado State University
  • 11 Jesse Kroll, Aerodyne - ""Multistep additions of oxygens to organics in SOA formation and aging" (I'll be talking about the HC/HOA -> OOA2 -> OOA1 transition (chamber and flow tube studies), and some simple modeling of oxidation kinetics to try to go after how we get many O's onto a single carbon skeleton in a relatively short time.)
  • 12 Scot Martin, Harvard University - "Amazonian Aerosol Characterization Experiment (AMAZE-08)"
  • 13 Spyros Pandis, Carnegie Mellon - "Organic Aerosol Modeling in the Laboratory, Regional and Global Scales" (The idea would be to talk about how we fit and evaluate the laboratory data, how we translate them into 3D models, and what we have been learning from the comparisons of these tools with ambient measurements. I will obviously coordinate with Neil and Allen.)
  • 14 Kim Prather, UC San Diego
  • 15 Allen Robinson, Carnegie Mellon - "Partitioning and Aging of Primary Emissions" (I will cover our recent laboratory and modeling results in this space. Lab results will include data for woodsmoke, primary emission surrogates, and simple mixtures of non traditional SOA precursors. We also have done a bunch of regional modeling and made back of the envelop estimates of SOA from non-traditional precursors -- I will coordinate that with Spyros. I will also try to slip in a bit of our very recent heterogeneous aging results!!)
  • 16 Lynn Russell, UC San Diego - "How Do We Quantify Organic Mixtures In and Of Particles and Will Those Mixtures Make a Difference?"
  • 17 Jim Smith, NCAR - ""Atmospheric nanoparticle composition and its implications for climate" (I'll talk about tdcims measurements of the composition of nanoparticles formed by nucleation. I will show that organics are important contributors to growth of these particles, and this understanding is crucial in assessing the role of nucleation in the earth's climate.)
  • 18 Rainer Volkamer, University of Colorado - "Atmospheric Relevance of Reactive Glyoxal Uptake as SOA source: Field, Laboratory, and Modeling Evidence"
  • 19 Doug Worsnop, Aerodyne
  • 20 Paul Ziemann, UC Riverside
  • 21 Nikos Mihalopoulos - "Sources of carbonaceous aerosols in the Eastern Mediterranean, inferred from long-term measurements"
  • 22 John Abbatt - ""Organic Aerosol Heterogeneous Oxidation and CCN Hygroscopic Growth: Lab and Field Studies" (I will give a fair bit of time to a field expt we did last May where we were able to contrast hygroscopic growth between aged, polluted particles and fresh biogenic ones. Also, I will briefly go through a heterogeneous oxidation expt we performed in downtown Toronto).
  • 23 Thanos Nenes

Remaining groups

  • Sonia and Thanos - CCN ( + Allen?)
  • Rainer and Joost - VOC-related
  • Rob and Stefano - NMR & isotopes
  • Urs, Doug, Murray, Kim, Jose - Field

Schedule

Sunday August 3

  • Informal meeting on Sun evening at Bubble Lounge, 200 W. Colorado Ave. From the TSRC website: "They have light meals, comfortable nooks to talk, no TVs and they can handle separate checks. They make excellent cocktails and have a nice selection of wine and beer. It is located just behind the Excelsior Restaurant, just north of Baked in Telluride, and is not expensive. The atmosphere is casual with a lot of style."

Other details

  • Recommended hike from Nana (for Wed): Mill Creek trail. It starts as part of the Jud Wiebe

trail (the toughest part of the hike) and then levels off to a rather flat trail. People can walk part of the way side by side, part single file and then it ends with a road where larger groups could talk. It's about 5 miles and loops to the Shell Station (formally the Texaco) and then you all can walk back along the river trail to town. It makes for a great medium level hike.
