Title: Linking Data with Decision-Making for Air Quality
Abstract: Environmental managers have long relied on atmospheric models and in situ measurements to support decision-making under the Clean Air Act. Today an even wider audience of policy, planning, and advocacy organizations are interested in air quality data to support climate action, health assessment, emergency response, and other decision needs. By collaborating with these user communities, scientists can expand the impact of existing knowledge, data, and tools. Growing the impact of science is the core mission of the NASA Health and Air Quality Applied Sciences Team, a major science applications and engagement effort over the past decade. Traditional scientific frameworks are evolving to better support engagement and to expand the benefits of science to new issues and communities. Still, challenges remain, especially for early-career scientists balancing academic milestones with “real-world” engagement and societal impact.
