Low altitude flights study everyday emissions
Washington DC (SPX) Jul 14, 2023
Often research associated with air quality and pollution prioritizes transportation - especially car emissions - as an area of focus. However, many urban areas have less pollution from motor vehicles than in the past. That's why scientists leading the AEROMMA project this summer are focused on gathering data on other anthropogenic, or human-based, pollution sources.
