Research Overview:

My research program is motivated by a need to understand the changing composition of our atmosphere and its impacts on climate and air quality. We will develop and apply analytical tools in both field and lab-based online mass spectrometry to build our understanding of atmospheric chemistry, with a particular focus on the coupled ocean-atmosphere system. Research topics include sources and sinks of volatile organic compounds in the surface ocean; ocean-atmosphere exchange; aerosol formation and growth; aerosol surface and multiphase chemistry; and chemistry-climate interactions.
