Summary: | We aimed to foster the community of atmospheric scientists in the Monsoon Asia and Oceania (MANGO) region to enhance communication among scientists in different countries and strengthen collaborations with the international community, with emphasis on air quality in Asia as it impacts human health and climate change. For this purpose, we have established a regional group, the International Global Atmospheric Chemistry–MANGO (IGAC–MANGO), under the IGAC project sponsored by Future Earth and the international Commission on Atmospheric Chemistry and Global Pollution. Through a series of committee meetings, scientific workshops, and training courses for students and early-career scientists, we analysed scientific activities in each country and identified research priorities in the MANGO region, significantly contributing to enhancing the capability and capacity of air quality research as well as fostering the next generation of scientists in the MANGO region. |
