Atmospheric Chemistry
The atmospheric chemistry subgroup investigates high-latitude chemical reactivity through a combination of field and laboratory studies. We work closely with the aerosol, radiation, meteorology groups in these studies. The listings below describe some current research foci. Follow the links to investigate these projects further. Interested students should investigate our excellent research and education opportunities.

Investigates the
chemistry of atmospheric aerosols through field and laboratory
studies. She is currently investigating the size and composition
of particles entering the Arctic from other regions of the
globe. |

Employs chemistry
transport models to examine the interaction between the trace
gas, water and energy cycles. |

Investigates Arctic
radical chemistry through field measurements of trace gases
and reactive radicals. Developing laser-based instruments
using cavity ring-down spectroscopy and tunable diode laser
absorption spectroscopy. Active projects include development
of a NO3 sensor using visible diode laser absorption,
and balloon-based sensing of ozone and carbon monoxide. |
