Outreach: Larry Mahrt is Releasing a “Much-Improved” Submeso Website

May 2016

The website readdresses turbulence eddies, small scale motions, and typical heterogeneous surfaces that are generally outside the scope of textbooks.

The website uses schematics and visualization of small scale motions using natural and machine generated fog.It also includes general-public information on practical issues (agricultural frost problems, restoration of native plant communities, and dispersion of contaminants).

Find the website at www.submeso.wordpress.com

Well done, Larry!

Jasna Pittman was invited by a science teacher at Eatonville Middle School near Mt Rainier, to talk to the students about climate and research in the atmospheric sciences.

She shared several slides and had very interactive Q&A sessions with around 200 students, spread over 6 periods during the day.

They watched a series of videos Jasna put together describing the NASA ATTREX campaign.Jasna said that the students had great questions!

Thank you, Jasna!
