For an overview of the project, check out the
slides from a department seminar given by Brian Blaylock and Ansley Long
and read the article published in Atmospheric Science Letters titled
Summer Ozone Concentrations in the Vicinity of the Great Salt Lake.
This web site provides access to some of the air quality and meteorological observations collected as part of the summer project, which took place from 1 June - 31 August 2015. Many in-situ and mobile platforms were used to collect ozone observations (full list available here). The in-situ sites, depicted as square markers on the map, recorded observations for the entire study period. Mobile platforms, which include observations from vehicles, light rail trains, and the KSL5 news helicopter are available at various times throughout the project (displayed as circular markers). This project had three Intensive Observation Periods (IOPs) where additional observations were taken by other entities. These periods were:
IOP 1: 17-18 June 2015
IOP 2: 14-16 July 2015
IOP 3: 10-12 August 2015
Mini-IOP 4: 16-24 August 2015
The collected data can be accessed by a series of interactive map and graphical products on this web page, including the map below. To choose a different time period or different variables for the map, please use the following options.
