A recent edition of RTT News features an article on the upcoming Studies of Emissions, Atmospheric Composition, Clouds and Climate Coupling by Regional Surveys (SEAC4RS) campaign that will investigate how air pollution and natural emissions, which are pushed high into the atmosphere by large storms, affect atmospheric composition and climate. http://www.rttnews.com/2132241/nasa-flights-over-southern-us-target-how-pollution-storms-and-climate-mix.aspx. SEAC4RS is sponsored by the Earth Science Division of NASA's Science Mission Directorate and will be managed by the Earth Science Project Office http://espo.nasa.gov/missions/seac4rs
