Aerosol Science and Technology

Aerosol science and technology centers on the formation, growth, transport and application of fine particulate matter. This research group focuses on characterizing the fundamental processes behind aerosol formation and transformation to better understand their impacts on the environment, climate and human health. These insights are also used to develop advanced materials for energy, environmental and medical technologies. At the Rosenstiel School’s Department of Atmospheric Sciences, aerosol research is especially focused on atmospheric and marine systems.
