“What’s this grime?"

Black gunk on your white lawn chair. Sparkly residue on your car. Rusty orange speckles on the eavestrough.

Here is what's happening to test and identify the polluting dust that ends up on lower city homes.

The fuel source matters!
Check out our @MacPARTICLES⁩ work ⁦on #brown-carbon from boreal wildfires and how the fuel source affects the light-absorption and atmospheric life of #BrC | Environmental Science & Technology ⁦ https://t.co/gwll2acz0h

[MacPARTICLES @MacPARTICLES]

Very happy to share Dr. Ming Lyu's (@minglyu2) paper exploring the properties of light-absorbing PM from boreal fuel combustion, now out in ES&T!

Congratulations again to Maya on an excellent paper!

When it comes to Edmonton’s winter roads, the focus is resolutely on the ground — but new U of A research led by Maya Abou-Ghanem (‘21 PhD) highlights previously unidentified air quality impacts of winter road maintenance. https://t.co/NSS45L1m96 #UAlberta @UAlbertaAlumni

[MacPARTICLES @MacPARTICLES]

This was such a great experience! Very happy to have the opportunity to highlight @Maya_AbouGhanem 's work!

One of my favorite things we do at @EnvSciRSC #ESPI is the Emerging Investigators Series. We have interviews with each EI, and I thought I would do a thread on the 18 from May 2019 - Nov 2022. (I did a similar thread in early 2019 and haven't followed up since then) THREAD 👇

Now that I'm back from #AAAR2022—it was so lovely to catch up with friends, to see excellent presentations (@Maya_AbouGhanem, for example!), and to have the opportunity to present @irischannnn's stellar PhD project focusing on long-term impacts of wildfire smoke incursions!

[Sarah Anne @sarahannestyler]

After a delightful evening at #yyz with @arthurmcchan, the other longtime member of the Bad Luck Flight Club™ (the only disadvantage, as always, being a cancelled flight), I'm in Montréal en route to #AAAR2022. Looking forward to a good (but short) trip!

[MacPARTICLES @MacPARTICLES]

With thanks to @irischannnn, @Chemist_tah , and the rest of the PARTICLES team, we have a website!

I'm looking forward to participating in the @RoySocChem #wildfires panel discussion tomorrow, and highlighting some of @MingLyu2 and @irischannnn 's excellent work in this area, as well as our new collaborations with @peatofmind and @Colin_PRM ! —Sarah

[Delphine Farmer @ChemDelphine]

Come join us (including @krismcneill & @stylergroup!) to talk about #wildfires, #climate, and #COP26 tomorrow!
