2010

September

  • Thursday 9/23, Non CO2 greenhouse gas colloquium at KNMI, de Bilt, the Netherlands.
  • Master student Alexandra will start a project in our group.
  • Florine starts her bachelor projectsupervised by Uli for a half year.
  • Marion started her PhD in our group.
  • Carlos has safely returned from Brasil.

July

  • July 11-16: Maarten visits the IGAC 2010 conference in Halifax: Atmospheric Chemistry: Challenging the Future
  • July 7: Henk and Michel are preparing to install the PICARRO instrument on the Cabauw tower. This will enable us to measure methane fluxes on two different heights (20 m and 120 m).
  • July 1: Elena Popa is starting a one year postdoc on modeling hydrogen with the Lotos-Euros model.

June

  • Ivan Vigano is coming back to work in our group for some time in July/August.
  • June 30: ISI conference of lastweek in Amsterdam was a great success. Interesting science such as the oxygen isotope anomaly in tropospheric CO2 and also perfectly organized social events with the best weather.
  • June 24: Rupert Holzinger gave a lunch talk at the KNMI.
  • June 22: Joseph Timkovsky is setting up the PTR-MS at the CITRUS site in the Californian Central valley.
  • June 21 to 25, 2010: The Fifth International Symposium on Isotopomers (ISI2010) in Amsterdam
  • Carlos preparing to leave for Brasil for a methane field campaign in the forest. Spatial air samples in the soil of the forest, measurements of the vertical methane gradient and maybe measurements of methane fluxes in the river.
