Our focus is on how atmospheric reaction mechanisms and multiphase chemistry control the fate of trace gases and the formation, growth and chemical evolution of atmospheric aerosol. We study atmospheric mechanisms and multiphase chemistry relevant to indoor, urban and polar marine environments.
We develop and apply analytical and physical chemistry tools in both field and lab-based studies to better understand the evolving molecular composition of atmospheric aerosol and trace gases. We aim to provide observations and fundamental chemical quantities that form the basis of atmospheric chemistry models.
