Atmospheric Chemistry & Climate of the Anthropocene
Our Earth’s climate and atmospheric composition has been changing since preindustrial times and will change in the future due to emissions of a variety of short-lived and long-lived compounds that affect concentrations of greenhouse gas and other climate forcers. The group investigates key processes and interactions in the atmosphere and the drivers of present-day and future changes in climate and composition.
