Research Interests:
  • Environmental research in general
  • The impact of weather on air quality
  • Aerosol composition and dynamics
Current Research Activities:
Applied research on regional transport of atmospheric pollutants (ozone, NO2, aerosols). In more detail: studying the impact of climate change on concentrations of pollutants (KvK), aerosol dynamics (LOTOS-EUROS with aerosol dynamics from the aerosol module M7), the generation of sea salt (BOP).
Projects: BOP, SMOGPROG, EUCAARI, KvK
