Current fabrication techniques include
organic solution -
phase synthesis, thermolysis of organometallic precursors, sol - gel processes, hydrothermal
reactions and biomimetic or dendrimer templating.
The dependence likely arises from gas -
phase chemistry of
organic peroxy radicals, which compete with NOx in
reactions, and succeeding particle -
phase reactions.
They make sure of a synthetic approach to produce a 3D porous
organic network in liquid -
phase reactions in the presence of suitable solvents and / or catalysts.
While other species detected in space are formed by gas -
phase chemistry alone, or by a combination of both gas and solid -
phase generation, methanol is a complex
organic compound which is formed solely in the ice
phase via surface
reactions on dust grains.
The process has two main
phases: the light - dependent light
reaction responsible for the initial capture of energy, and the light - independent dark
reaction in which this energy is stored in the chemical bonds of
organic molecules.
In addition to new experimental approaches for investigations of complex materials systems, she has pioneered stochastic simulation methods for complex condensed
phase chemical
reactions including transport in inorganic and
organic solids and liquids.
Topics that I work on or plan to work in the future include studies of: + missing aerosol species and sources, such as the primary oceanic aerosols and their importance on the remote marine atmosphere, the in - cloud and aerosol water aqueous formation of
organic aerosols that can lead to brown carbon formation, the primary terrestrial biological particles, and the
organic nitrogen + missing aerosol parameterizations, such as the effect of aerosol mixing on cloud condensation nuclei and aerosol absorption, the semi-volatility of primary
organic aerosols, the importance of in - canopy processes on natural terrestrial aerosol and aerosol precursor sources, and the mineral dust iron solubility and bioavailability + the change of aerosol burden and its spatiotemporal distribution, especially with regard to its role and importance on gas -
phase chemistry via photolysis rates changes and heterogeneous
reactions in the atmosphere, as well as their effect on key gas -
phase species like ozone + the physical and optical properties of aerosols, which affect aerosol transport, lifetime, and light scattering and absorption, with the latter being very sensitive to the vertical distribution of absorbing aerosols + aerosol - cloud interactions, which include cloud activation, the aerosol indirect effect and the impact of clouds on aerosol removal + changes on climate and feedbacks related with all these topics In order to understand the climate system as a whole, improve the aerosol representation in the GISS ModelE2 and contribute to future IPCC climate change assessments and CMIP activities, I am also interested in understanding the importance of natural and anthropogenic aerosol changes in the atmosphere on the terrestrial biosphere, the ocean and climate.
