in the Center for Environmental Measurement and Modeling (CEMM)'s Atmospheric & Environmental System Modeling Division (AESMD) develop and apply large scale comprehensive atmospheric systems to study various aspects of air pollution. Using the Community Multiscale
Air Quality (CMAQ) modeling system (http://www.epa.gov/cmaq), AESMD applies modeling-based approaches to characterize natural emissions, evaluate fate and transport, and quantify their impact on air quality, deposition, and exposure with input from multiple
data sources. In collaboration with AESMD scientists, the research participant will be involved in a focused research project that extends skills acquired through their advanced degree education. This research project will examine effects of natural emissions
such as dust, wild fires, soil emissions, volcanic emissions, and lightning generated emissions on regional to global air quality using the Weather Research and Forecasting (WRF) model and CMAQ modeling system.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

research participant will gain experience on examining effects of natural emissions such as dust, wild fires, soil emissions, volcanic emissions, and lightning generated emissions on regional to global air quality using the Weather Research and Forecasting
(WRF) model and CMAQ modeling system. The research participant will also learn about enhancements to the treatment of one or more of these emission pathways in the CMAQ modeling system, by conducting detailed evaluation of model simulations against available
observational data sets. The research participant may have the opportunity to present research findings through presentations at technical conferences and workshops, and participate in the development of manuscripts for publication in peer-reviewed literature.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
