NOSA – Nordic Society for Aerosol Research

NORDIC SOCIETY FOR AEROSOL RESEARCH (NOSA)

Annual Symposia

NOSA has the ambition to arrange Nordic Aerosol conferences annually in one of the Nordic countries, within the field of aerosol science and technology. Each Symposium has a special focus, but contributions covering all aspects of aerosol science are welcome. The invited speakers are normally chosen to present research within the special focus

     A first meeting, where also the first steps towards founding NOSA were taken, was held 1978 in Stockholm. The first real NOSA scientific meeting was arranged in Göteborg in 1982.

Counting until the NOSA-2007 Aerosol Symposium, Sweden has hosted 16 NOSA meetings (including EAC 1988), Denmark 4 meetings, Finland 4 meetings, and Norway 4 meetings.

The NOSA meetings.
