Abstract

The National Atmospheric Deposition Program (NADP) collects atmospheric data to monitor air pollution effects on the quality of United States water supplies and ecosystems. The NADP requires consistent data collection at fixed locations and is governed by a committee with participation by many Federal and State agencies, universities, Tribes, and private companies. NADP conducts a spring business meeting where the Network Operations, Education and Outreach, and multiple science subcommittees adjourn to discuss all aspects of NADP. Similar to the spring meeting, a fall meeting occurs with the addition of a two-day scientific symposium where scientists present their research using NADP data.
