and the safety of nanomaterials with respect to human health
impact. Chapters 15 through 18 provide a forum for the sources of
particle emissions (e.g., vehicles and other anthropogenic emissions),
aerosol movement in the atmosphere, atmospheric chemistry
related to the transport, dispersion and disposition of aerosols, and
radioactive aerosols as the tracers of atmospheric processes.
Overall, the book is founded on a broad range of collective
contributionsfromscientistsandleadingexpertsinthefieldofaerosol
science and technology and reflects the latest advances in aerosol
research, applications, tracing aerosol sources, transport, dynamics
and its climate and health impacts. Although, the book appears to
be mostly suited for professionals working on air pollution, public
health, climate change, and environmental sustainability, remote
sensing scientists may find it helpful to expand their knowledge on
the fundamentals of aerosols, information that is critical for both
satellite monitoring of air pollution and removing aerosols affect in
land remote sensing. In my view, the application of remote sensing
to aerosol monitoring is a topic the authors need to expand on in
future editions of this book. Nevertheless, I believe that the book
serves as a comprehensive and valuable resource for graduate
students, academics, and practitioners.

FUNDRAISING FOR IGTF 2015
T
he members of the Student Advisory Council of
the ASPRS invite you to support our hard working
student researchers and volunteers attending the
annual spring conference this spring in Tampa.
Many must travel on limited budgets and any financial help on your part can make the
conference much more rewarding for them, and give you direct access to tomorrow’s leaders in
the photogrammetry and remote sensing. Many of the students are presenting new and exciting
research on a variety of topics that may be of interest to you or your company. Many are also volunteering some of their time at
the conference, working behind the scenes to keep things running smoothly.
For the spring meeting in Tampa, our fundraising goal for student activities is $1500. Monetary donations to cover food and
social events for students are appreciated, and your participation in these activities is encouraged. Alternatively, please consider
sponsoring an event for students and student volunteers. An evening of bowling or other similar activity is good fun for us and
will be for you as well.
If you would like to participate, please contact us at
. Your support for the future of ASPRS is
appreciated.
