Membership in The Japan Society of Atmospheric Chemistry (JpSAC)

What is JpSAC (The Japan Society of Atmospheric Chemistry)?

In order to effectively address global environmental issues as well as to draw together scientist belonging to traditionally separate academic societies and offer them a forum for mutual exchange and discussions, the Japan Society of Atmospheric Chemistry (JpSAC) evolved through the times to become the present organization, and attained its current name in 2014. Becoming a member of JpSAC is associated with various benefits, but the true benefit is having an opportunity for professional and personal growth through dialogue between Japanese scientists and international researchers residing in Japan.
