Bio/Research

In our group, we study the chemistry of the atmospheric ozone layer and the processes that are associated to it. The ozone layer is protecting the Earth from the Sun’s dangerous ultraviolet radiation. This area of research has been traditionally challenging because of its remote location and the complexity of the processes involved. However, today we are entering in a new era where a new generation of sophisticated numerical models offers an unprecedented capability of simulating this region of the atmosphere and where new satellite instruments provide continuous measurements of the concentration of many atmospheric chemical constituents.
