The measurement instruments have been collected, almost everything is packed: Geertje and Jan Dirk Dingemanse are set to leave The Netherlands on August 2, and move to Arba Minch, Ethiopia, to join Arba Minch University. While Geertje will join the Department of Economics, Jan Dirk will set up Air Quality measurements together with the Faculty of Water Supply and Environmental Engineering, and the Faculty of Meteorology and Hydrology.
