SUMMARY:Air Pollution Links to the Sources and Sinks of Greenhouse Gases in New York City
DESCRIPTION:Friday\, November 10\, 2023. 2:30 PM. Air Pollution Links to the Sources and Sinks of Greenhouse Gases in New York City. Roisin Commane\, Columbia University. Sponsored by Rutgers Department of Environmental Sciences. More information here. \nAbstract: Many city governments in the US have committed to reducing their emissions of GHGs based on inventories calculated for the city. However\, few cities measure their carbon emissions to know if the enacted policies are having the desired effect. The New York Metro Area (pop. 20M) is the most populous urban area in the United States (US) and the largest urban source of CO2 in the US. The region also has some of the worst summertime air quality (NOx and ozone exceedances) outside of California\, much of which is transported downwind to Connecticut. We have observed concentrations of methane\, ethane\, CO\, CO2 and N2O over long periods at an observatory in Manhattan (starting in 2019) and at the Rutgers air quality site in New Brunswick since January 2023. We combine atmospheric transport models with our observations to evaluate various trace gas inventories for the city (for methane\, CO and CO2). To interpret the CO2 observations\, we built a model for biogenic CO2 photosynthesis and respiration for NYC that includes street and park trees and urban lawns and found that the large amounts of vegetation in the city absorbs much of the daytime CO2 emitted from traffic across the city. We also identified surprising N2O emissions from specific waste water treatment plants in the city. Our observations of many trace gases have allowed us to study the source characteristics of methane and understand the impact of co-emitted species on urban atmospheric chemistry. \nLocation: Webinar

SUMMARY:St. Augustine: History and Resiliency of a First Coast City
DESCRIPTION:Wednesday\, November 29\, 2023. 4:00 PM. St. Augustine: History and Resiliency of a First Coast City. Isabella Guttuso\, University of Florida. Sponsored by Rutgers Department of Landscape Architecture. More information here.  \nAbstract: Coastal cities historically built in floodplains have adapted through time to the challenges that arise from settling in a landscape shaped by water. Climate change has exacerbated the natural events that these communities face. St. Augustine\, the oldest continuously occupied settlement of European and African-American origin in the United States\, is grappling with vulnerability posed by floods and aging infrastructure. This presentation summarizes the history of St. Augustine through the current day and highlights the ways flooding is projected to impact the region. It will also touch on the projects being implemented by the city\, University of Florida and other entities with the intent of creating a network of resilient infrastructure that will ensure America’s “oldest” city carries on its rich cultural and historic legacy. \nLocation: IFNH 101\, 61 Dudley Rd\, New Brunswick\, NJ 08901

SUMMARY:The Activation Properties of Fresh and Aged Black Carbon Particles from Biomass Burning
DESCRIPTION:Friday\, December 1\, 2023. 2:30 PM. The Activation Properties of Fresh and Aged Black Carbon Particles from Biomass Burning. Ogochukwu Enekwizu\, Brookhaven National Laboratory. Sponsored by Rutgers Department of Environmental Sciences. More information here.  \nAbstract: Black carbon (BC) particles affect climate directly through the absorption of solar radiation and indirectly by changing cloud properties such as cloud amount and lifetime. An abundant source of BC is biomass burn (BB) events (i.e.\, wildfires)\, which concurrently release copious amounts of condensable organic vapors that form thick coatings that encapsulate the BC. The coatings increase the hydrophilicity of the otherwise hydrophobic BC particles while at the same time increase the particle size\, both of which enhance the ability of these particles to act as cloud condensation nuclei (CCN) and affect their optical properties. Due to the complex interplay between hydrophilic properties of the coating and the hydrophobic properties of the BC “core”\, along with the particle size\, better quantification of the hygroscopic properties for this important class of particle will improve our understanding and representation of the direct and indirect climatic forcing contributions by these particles. In this seminar\, I will discuss the CCN activity of pure and thickly coated BC surrogate particles determined by laboratory measurements under typical atmospheric supersaturations using levoglucosan\, a known tracer for BB\, as a proxy for fresh organic coating and oleic acid as a surrogate for aged organic coating\, as a function of coating thickness for different core (i.e.\, BC) mobility diameters. Additionally\, experimental results are used to derive the hygroscopicity parameter (κ) of the BC core and coatings. The limiting cases of fresh and aged organic coatings\, which span the range of coating ages\, are used to investigate the activation behavior of an ensemble BC particle population consisting of particles with different core diameters and different coating thicknesses and how activation\, in turn\, affects the aerosol optical properties. The findings presented provide a critical fundamental-level understanding of aerosol-cloud interactions for this important class of particles. \nLocation: ENR building\, room 223
