The term “anthropocene” has been popularized by the German Nobel Laureate Paul Crutzen to highlight the fact that we are profoundly changing the Earth’s atmosphere, oceans, and the biosphere and that some of these changes are comparable to those that occurred in the past geological era. One of these changes is worsening of air quality over the entire globe. In my talk I will discuss how we are using satellites to study these changes.
Pawan Kumar Bhartia is a Senior Research Scientist at NASA Goddard Space Flight Center, Greenbelt, Maryland, USA.

You can combine search terms with and, or and/or not, e.g. Philo not logy.
You can use brackets to separate combinations from each other, e.g. (Philo not logy) or (Psycho and logy).
Coherent groups of words will be located as complete phrases if you put them into quotation marks, e.g. “Federal Republic of Germany”.
You can also use the advanced search without entering search terms. It will then follow the criteria you have selected (e.g. country or subject area).
If you have not selected any criteria in a given category, the entire category will be searched (e.g. all subject areas or all countries).
