Hello Bluesky! We are excited to join this community! We post satellite observations of global aerosol and air quality events, including wildfires, dust storms, and haze. We focus on NOAA geostationary & polar-orbiting satellite products, but also feature TEMPO and TROPOMI imagery as well.

👋 Spinning up my time on here... You'll be getting posts like this one, which shows NO2 pollution as observed by satellite data last year. More posts on air quality, climate, and remote sensing to come!
