Job title:
Professor & the Lieselotte and David Templeton Professor of Chemistry
Bio/CV:
The coupling of atmospheric chemistry and climate on Earth and other planets on time scales ranging from months to billions of years is studied through observations from aircraft and ground-based platforms, 2D and 3D computer simulations, and laboratory experiments. Of particular interest are studies of photochemical isotope effects on the molecular scale through crossed molecular beam laboratory experiments and up to the global scale through observations in Earth's stratosphere. This insight is extended to the early Earth and other planets through laboratory investigations of photochemical haze production and other atmospheric phenomena that could serve as significant regulators of climate and habitability.
