ACOM Seminars

The ACOM Seminar series is an opportunity for NSF NCAR staff and visitors to share scientific information that is of general interest to the Atmospheric Chemistry Observations & Modeling Laboratory. Seminars are typically held on Thursday mornings with a reception at 10:45 am and the seminar starting at 11:00 am in the Main Seminar Room at the Foothills Laboratory (FL2-1022). Seminars may be held at other times and locations to accommodate interesting speakers whose schedules don't fit the normal schedule.
