Personal Info

  • Associate Professor, Program in Atmospheric and Oceanic Sciences and LASP
  • Graduate of MIT (S.B., Biology, 1988) and Harvard (Ph.D., Chemistry, 1993)
  • Winner of a Presidential Early Career Award for Scientists and Engineers (PECASE)
  • Participant in many ground-based and aircraft-borne field studies of atmospheric chemistry and dynamics
  • Current research involves designing lightweight autonomous instruments for studies of chemically and radiatively important gases in Earth's atmosphere.

    • Interests

    Experimental and theoretical studies of tropospheric and stratospheric chemistry, particularly of halogens and related species. Analyzing measurements of chemical species to understand dynamical processes in the stratosphere and troposphere. Development of instrumentation for autonomous in situ measurements of trace species related to understanding the lifetimes of anthropogenic pollutants.
