Welcome to ASAAQ

We are pleased to invite you to the 16^th International Conference on Atmospheric Sciences and Applications to Air Quality (ASAAQ), taking place in Hong Kong SAR, China, from 26 to 28 October 2026.

ASAAQ is a leading event dedicated to sharing advances and promoting collaboration in air quality, atmospheric sciences, and climate studies across Asia. Since its inception in Seoul in 1985, ASAAQ has been held in major cities, including Tokyo, Shanghai, Seattle, Beijing, Taipei, Tsukuba, San Francisco, Hong Kong, Jinan, Kobe, Strasbourg, and Kuala Lumpur. The conference continues to provide an essential platform for scientific exchange and evidence-based support for improving the atmospheric environment in the region and beyond.

After a hiatus of more than six years, ASAAQ returns at a time when air pollution challenges in the Asia-Pacific region are increasingly severe, especially in rapidly developing urban and industrial areas. The 16^th ASAAQ will bring together researchers, professionals, and students to synthesize cutting-edge knowledge in atmospheric sciences, foster cross-disciplinary collaboration, and advance practical solutions for cleaner air.
