Over the last several years San Juan County has experienced episodes of poor air quality due to smoke from wildfires hundreds of miles away. Join Kyle as he covers recent work to study particulate matter 2.5 levels in the County which inform health related messages to the public. He will also talk about low-cost sensors installed around the County.
