Study of atmospheric chemistry and air quality using mass spectrometric-based instrumentation for the measurement reactive and short-lived species, including hydroxyl radical (OH), peroxy radicals (HO2, RO2), sulfuric acid, and other acidic or highly oxygenated species. Interpretation of data from these measurements. Study of the photochemistry of upper and lower atmosphere, measurements of rate coefficients of atmospheric reactions, and investigation of mechanisms of atmospheric chemical processes.
