Lynn Russell, Professor of Atmospheric Chemistry, Scripps Institution of Oceanography

Lynn M. Russell is a Professor of Atmospheric Chemistry at the Scripps Institution of Oceanography of the University of California, San Diego. Her research interests are in aerosol composition, aerosol-cloud interactions, and aerosol evolution in the troposphere. Using a variety of techniques for both observations and modeling, her work has contributed to an improved understanding of how aerosols affect climate.  Dr. Russell received her B.S. in chemical engineering and A.B. in international relations from Stanford University. She received her Ph.D. in Chemical Engineering from the California Institute of Technology in 1995.

Finding safe, secure alterative ways to combat climate change requires exploration and innovation. Join us to learn more about this topic from leading climate engineering researchers. Sponsored by HUCE and the MIT Joint Program on Global Change
