About this role
Our research project aims to explore the health implications of wildfires, traffic, prescribed fires, power plants and dust storms. We will be utilizing cutting-edge NASA satellite data from the Atmospheric Science Data Center to track the movement and concentration of air pollution. By merging these data with public health platforms, we aim to analyze the correlation between exposure to pollution and potential health outcomes.
Internship Responsibilities:
1. Data Analysis: Work with NASA satellite data to understand the spread of pollution in the region.
2. Collaboration: Engage with public health platforms to gather relevant health data for analysis.
3. Impact Assessment: Assess the health impact of prolonged exposure to pollution on the local communities.
4. Poster Generation: Compile findings into comprehensive reports for public dissemination and conference presentation.
5. Technical paper explaining the methodology used to reach conclusions.
