Speakers and Titles

• 1 Urs Baltensperger, Paul Scherrer Institut
• 2 Joost DeGouw, NOAA
• 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
• 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
• 10 Sonia Kreidenweis, Colorado State University
• 11 Jesse Kroll, Aerodyne
• 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
• 17 Jim Smith, NCAR
• 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 John Abbatt
• 22 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."
