Molecular studies in the Phyllosphere

Lead Institution
University of California, Irvine
Principal Investigator
Alex Guenther
Aerosol radiative forcing, both direct effects and indirect impacts by modifying clouds, is the largest single source of uncertainty in simulations of global climate change [IPCC, 2007]. Climate…

Molecular studies in the Phyllosphere

Lead Institution
University of California, Irvine
Principal Investigator
Alex Guenther
This proposal will facilitate EMSL laboratory access for Alex Guenther to conduct research in support of the EMSL Atmospheric Aerosol Systems Science Theme Leadership area. Aerosol radiative forcing,…

Atmospheric Ecometabolomics

Lead Institution
University of California, Irvine
Principal Investigator
Alex Guenther
Compounds such as alpha-pinene, isoprene, ethene and methanol are well known to sub-disciplines in both geosciences and biology. They are known as biogenic volatile organic compounds (BVOC) to…

Incubator project for a plant-aerosol interactions research campaign

Lead Institution
University of California, Irvine
Principal Investigator
Alex Guenther
The metabolomes of many living organisms are a diverse array of molecules. Some of them are released into the atmosphere where they react with oxidants that determine the atmospheric abundance of…

Using metabalomics to understand the fate of pollen in the atmosphere

Lead Institution
University of Michigan
Principal Investigator
Allison Steiner
Project type
Large-Scale EMSL Research
The release of pollen from vegetation represents a major seasonal, pulsed source of organic matter to the atmosphere of great biological and societal importance. While pollen grains themselves are…

Chemical Imaging and Molecular Characterization of Primary Biological Particles.

Lead Institution
University of California, Irvine
Principal Investigator
Alex Guenther
Project type
Large-Scale EMSL Research
The objective of the proposed project is to conduct in-depth studies of Primary Biological Aerosol Particles (PBAP) for predictive understanding of their environmental impact. The ultimate goal is to…
