Description:

The goal of this task is to improve our understanding of atmospheric modeling research applications through collaborations with the international air pollution community and to demonstrate the applicability of our AQ models for their utility through technical applications by client offices both within and outside of EPA.

Purpose/Objective:

The scientific modeling expertise of NERL/AMD technical staff often results in requests for staff participation in research planning and evaluation exercises and meetings both within EPA/ORD and in other research venues, including NOAA, NSF, DOE, and various public/private research efforts. Technical support is also requested for EPA/OAR programs for implementation of NAAQS for criteria pollutants. Staff participation in these exercises results in providing needed assistance to clients, broadening the experience base, perspective, and appreciation of the clients' needs by the AMD scientific staff, improved scientific interactions with research and regulatory colleagues, and increased visibility for NERL AMD programs.
