Atmospheric Chemistry

Neil Donahue has been named a 2012 American Geophysical Union Fellow, an honor that recognizes exceptional scientific contributions and eminence in the fields of Earth and space sciences. Professor Donahue investigates how organic compounds and atmospheric particles are chemically transformed in the atmosphere.

Ryan Sullivan, recently appointed assistant professor of chemistry and mechanical engineering, uses single particle mass spectrometry (SPMS) to determine the chemical composition of individual particles in the atmosphere.

Read more about their work and the Center for Atmospheric Particle Studies in the Mellon College of Science alumni magazine, Science Connection.
