🌊 Step into the lab to see how scientists are using a unique instrument, SOARS, to understand how human activities are changing the chemistry of the ocean and atmosphere. Scripps Oceanography PhD student & CAICE member Raymond Leibensperger III shares more ⬇️ scripps.ucsd.edu/soars

A 99-second overview of our CAICE research by Scripps Institution of Oceanography comms. So proud of our team that made this possible!! The plan is to get these results in climate and air quality models by working with Max Planck Institute for Chemie in a wonderful new collaboration!!

Exciting alert!! My first co-authorship from grad school has been published!! Check out our new article in Atmospheric Chemistry and Physics: “Effects of Wind Speed on Size-Dependent Morphology and Composition of Sea Spray Aerosols” pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ac…

We're happy to celebrate Dr. Alexia Moore's PhD defense today! 🎉

Did you spot our electric van around this week? 👀🚐 We’re cruising Southern San Diego with state-of-the-art air sampling equipment with our partners from UT Austin. Our goal is to map smells and pollution, giving us a clear picture of what’s in the air you breathe. +

Thanks Scripps Institution of Oceanography for the spotlight! Check out the link below to read more about me and some of the research I’ve done with CAICE!
