American Geophysical Union (AGU) Fall Meeting 2020

Atmospheric and Environmental Research Inc (AER) was pleased to participate in the 2020 AGU Fall Meeting held online on December 1-17. AER researchers across a number of geophysical disciplines, along with co-authors at other top research institutions, presented their work in the poster and oral papers listed below (AER authors in bold type), including research in physical oceanography, seasonal forecasting and climate, radiative transfer and spectroscopy, air quality, and greenhouse gas transport, modeling, and monitoring.  The full scientific program for the Fall Meeting is found here: https://www.agu.org/Fall-Meeting/Pages/Schedule-Program/Scientific-Program
