- This is the page for the Front Range Aerosol Program (FRAP) meetings. FRAP meetings are organized 2-3 times per year and aim to bring together aerosol researchers across the Colorado Front Range. They were started by Jim Smith of NCAR in 2001 as the "NCAR Aerosol Program (NAP)", and later the name was changed to reflect the expanded participation.
- The current FRAP steering commitee is comprised of: Chuck Brock (NOAA), Mary Barth (NCAR), Jim Smith (NCAR), and Jose-Luis Jimenez (CU-Boulder)
- FRAP meetings are announced through the aerosols@lists.colorado.edu email list. Pls contact jose.jimenez@colorado.edu if you want to be added to the list.
Next Meeting: Thu Nov. 12 @ 3:30 pm, NCAR
Location: NCAR Foothills Lab Building 2, Room 1001 (Map to NCAR)
Talk
