Aerosol Chemistry Department
Yafang Cheng, Director
The Aerosol Chemistry Department aims to develop a mechanistic understanding and quantitative prediction of aerosol processes and effects in the Earth system and advance the fundamental theory of the physical chemistry of nanoparticles and microdroplets.
A hallmark of Yafang Cheng’s scientific approach is the seamless integration of field observations, instrument development, laboratory experiments, model simulations and machine learning to identify scientific key questions, test hypotheses, and advance theory. This approach further advances the Institute’s focus and strength in Earth System Chemistry, and it makes full use of the available research platforms and resources, including the HALO research aircraft, other high-tech workshops and laboratories, and high-performance computing facilities.
Research Themes and Project Teams:
- UTLS Aerosols (F. Köllner et al.)
- Wildfires and Impacts (C. Ma et al.)
- Integrated Assessment Modeling (W. Meng et al.)
- Aerosol Field Experiments (J. Schneider et al.)
- Nanoscale Theory and Modeling (H. Yang et al.)
