Presenter:

Maxwell Mazur – Alberta Environment and Parks

About the Presenter: Maxwell Mazur joined Alberta Environment and Parks in 2014. He is the is the Senior Air Quality Specialist for the Red Deer North Saskatchewan region. In his time with the department he has contributed to the understanding and management of fine particulate matter in the region through the Capital Region and Red Deer fine particulate matter responses. This work combines Maxwell’s experience in air quality research (e.g. M.Sc. University of Toronto, Publications with Environment Canada) and interaction with stakeholders to implement and achieve effective air quality management in Alberta.

Abstract:

Alberta Environment and Parks used the CMAQ photochemical model to evaluate the contribution of various source sectors to ambient air quality across the Province of Alberta. The contribution of source sectors was evaluated using an improved emissions inventory, complete calendar year of meteorology and across the whole province at the same time. The presentation will focus on the technical details of the project, the key results and some of the remaining challenges.
