This webinar will provide a discussion of air quality and its relationship with large bodies of water. The presentations draw on the results from the Ozone Water-Land Environmental Transition Study (OWLETS) conducted on the lower and upper reaches of the Chesapeake Bay in 2017 and 2018. The study involved two sites, a “continental” site located at the University of Maryland Baltimore County and a “marine” site located on Hart Miller Island. OWLETS’ focus was to examine the localized conditions and influences of large bodies of water and their effects on ozone concentrations. Researchers from fifteen organizations participated in the study including our three speakers today who represent Federal, State and academic institutions.

​

Speakers:

•       Dr. John Sullivan, NASA Goddard Space Flight Center

•       Dr. Vanessa Caicedo, University of Maryland Baltimore County

•       Mr. Joel Dreessen, Maryland Department of the Environment
