We are super busy collecting data and having long days. The last two days we have completed three scheduled air quality flights and one mass balance flight.
Today we coordinated two science flights with the NASA B-200, the NOAA Air Resources Car, NOAA’s Chemical Sciences Laboratory’s mobile lab and the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment mobile lab as well as the company GHGSat, which uses satellites to detect methane emissions. The targeted area was the Diamond Feeder facility, a dry feedlot where livestock finish growing, so likely a high source of methane emissions.
Taco and Milos were excited to visit the hanger where the Twin Otter is housed.
