Lincoln Laboratory has been designing and developing bio-agent detection systems for both the Department of Defense and the Department of Homeland Security. Most of our work has focused on rapid environmental detection of a bio-aerosol attack. The attack information is used in some cases to initiate protective responses such as evacuation or masking, and in others to direct appropriate treatmen...

Abstract The Ocean Color Component of the Aerosol Robotic Network (AERONET-OC) supports activities related to ocean color such as validation satellite data products, assessment atmospheric correction schemes, and evaluation bio-optical models through globally distributed standardized measurements water-leaving radiance aerosol optical depth. In view duly assisting AERONET-OC user community, thi...

it is very important to determine the stable nitrogen isotope ratio for the nitrogenous substances in aerosols and the geochemistry behavior of stable nitrate ion isotopes in aerosols in order to elucidate the chemical and physical functions of clouds. hence, aerosol field sampling was conducted in the skies offshore from malibu beach and santa barbara, california, u.s.a. on 16 and 18 july 2009...

the present research article highlights the metal (cd, cu, pb, zn and fe)distribution pattern in the rspm generated in different hot spot sites located at kochi, thequeen of arabian sea. these sampling sites are categorized under three different zonesas estuarine, riverine, and coastal. two sampling phases are selected in order to check theconsistency in pollution trend after a two year gap and...
