Tuesday, 14 February

 

 

 

 

 

This day is devoted to summarizing the
DISCOVER-AQ observations, modeling, and value-added data products. Presenters
should focus on how their data or product brings value to the larger data
set, a general overview of its behavior during the campaign, general data
quality, and any advice or caveats for those planning to use it. Detailed
discussion of analysis should be saved for the breakout discussions on Day
2. An evening poster session is planned.
