Aerosol scientists at the College of Engineering are taking their research beyond conventional ground-level assessments by teaming up with smart balloons company, Alta Systems, to carry a sensor over 140 meters high and gather aerosol data. Because aerosols influence air quality, weather patterns, and other atmospheric processes, the measurement at high altitude will provide new insight into how aerosols impact human health and climate change.
