I am an NCAS Research Fellow and Instrument Scientist working for the Atmospheric Measurement & Observation Facility (AMOF). I currently maintain atmospheric measurement instrumentation including lidars, weather balloon systems. I am also investigating the usefulness of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) in atmospheric science. My research involves long-range transport of natural aerosol (eg. volcanic ash, forest fire smoke, desert dust) as well as anthropogenic pollution and its effects on local air quality.
