Research Profile

Research in the Atmospheric Chemistry Modeling Group headed by Daniel Jacob and Jennifer Logan focuses on understanding the chemistry of the atmosphere, its perturbation by human activity, and the implications for human welfare and climate.

We work on global 3-dimensional modeling of atmospheric chemistry and climate change, aircraft measurement campaigns, satellite data retrievals, analyses of atmospheric observations, and theoretical studies.

There are about 30 people in the group working on a wide range of projects. For up-to-date information on our activities please visit our website.
