CANDAC Student-Researchers Atmospheric Collaboration

CANDAC (Canadian Network for the Detection of Atmospheric Change) researchers have teamed up with students and staff at schools in Ontario and Nunavut to launch a new project that encourages young people to become active researchers who monitor atmospheric conditions using scientific instruments at their school. Researchers and students work together to gather, compare and analyse data to better understand the current state of Earth's dynamic atmosphere.

CANDAC scientists blogging from Eureka, Nunavut!

Dan Weaver, a PhD student working with Prof. Strong at the University of Toronto, just blogged about the 2013 Canadian Arctic ACE/OSIRIS Validation Campaign from CANDAC's iconic red PEARL lab in Eureka, Nunavut. Read his informative blog at http://createarcticscience.wordpress.com/.

Environment Canada colleagues welcomed back CANDAC scientists for another year of measurements.

Dan cools detectors in the Bruker spectrometer with liquid nitrogen. The Bruker measures tropospheric and stratospheric gases like ozone, carbon dioxide, methane, and many more.
