What Does SORP Stand For?

SORP stands for Southern Oxidants Research Program

The Southern Oxidants Research Program (SORP) is a collaborative initiative focused on understanding the formation, distribution, and impact of atmospheric oxidants in the southern United States. By integrating research efforts from various scientific disciplines, SORP aims to enhance knowledge on the interaction of natural and human-induced emissions, improve air quality, and inform policy decisions related to environmental health and regulatory frameworks. Through extensive field studies and advanced modeling, SORP provides critical insights into the role of oxidants in atmospheric chemistry and their effects on ecosystems and human health.
