Assistant Research Professor
I am an NCAS Senior Research Associate working with Dr. Luke Abraham and Prof. Alex Archibald in the Centre for Atmospheric Science.
I use numerical models and observations to investigate physical and chemical processes in the atmosphere. I work with UKCA, the United Kingdom Chemistry and Aerosols community model, based on the Met Office Unified Model. I have past experience in addressing the effect of model horizontal resolution on a number of different dynamical and chemical processes. Currently, I'm working on better integration of models and observational (VISION project) and the climate impact of aircraft NOx emissions (REVEAL-NOx project).
Key Research Interests
- Decadal changes in tropospheric ozone.
- Integrating model and observational data for better understanding of atmospheric processes and atmospheric model evaluation.
- Tropical deep convection and its impact on Troposphere/Stratosphere exchange.
- Lightning emissions and their impact on Chemistry and Climate.
- Very short lived ozone depleting species (VSLS) and their impact on ozone.
- Impacts of emission changes and climate on regional atmospheric composition.
