Project Title:
Air Quality Impacts on Ecosystem Services
Sponsoring Office:
Office of Air Quality Planning and Standards
Project Overview:
Changes in air quality affect ecosystems and the services they provide, and it is therefore important to understand the ecological impacts of air quality. The selected fellow will design and implement a research project that furthers the knowledge base of the critical linkages between ecosystems and air quality. Specifically, the fellow will investigate the potential impacts of changing air quality on the services that ecosystems supply. The fellow will meet with experts across EPA and government, including those in the Office of Air and Radiation and the Office of Research and Development, as well as experts in academia, to gather relevant peer-reviewed data and literature.
Project Goals:
The fellow will gain critical insight into the state of the science and potential policy applications of that science and be exposed to a range of federal research and policy perspectives.
Final Product of the Project:
The fellow will develop a final report and presentation summarizing the state of the science on the specific ecosystem services-air quality topic.
Project Location:
EPA Region 4, Research Triangle Park, NC
