Congratulations to Peter! He successfully defended his Ph.D. Dissertation, completed revisions and headed out of town to his Postdoctoral Associate Researcher position in Professor Kerri Pratt’s group at the University of Michigan! Way to go Peter, you’re on a roll.
Today we shipped the MAX-DOAS instruments for Obuoys 13-15 to CRREL for integration into the Obuoy platform and deployment onto sea ice. After building 15 of the systems we have got the procedure down. Very relieved to have them off the bench and soon to be studying the Arctic!
Dr. Deanna Donohoue, who was a postdoctoral associate in our research group recently was offered a tenure-track professor position in Chemistry Department at Lawrence University in Appleton, Wisconsin. Congrats to Deanna!
Peter Peterson’s manuscript on the control of the vertical structure of BrO by atmospheric stability was accepted for discussion in Atmospheric Chemistry and Physics Discussions. The manuscript can be viewed at the link below.

Check it out and congrats to Peter!
Patrick’s paper on the fate of NOx due to nocturnal oxidation at high latitudes has been published in Atmospheric Chemistry and Physics. Congratulations to Patrick and our collaborator Roland von Glasow (from UEA, UK).

I’m just back from the Chemistry of the Sea and Sky Symposium that was in Vancouver, BC, Canada. It was great to visit with my Canadian (and some US) colleagues to the South and catch up on happenings in Environmental Chemistry. https://www.csc2014.ca/about/welcome.html
The Session was:
The chemistry of the sea and sky can impact human health, environmental quality, and climate. Chemistry that occurs within marine and atmospheric environments is complicated by interactions and feedbacks between the ocean, sea ice, and atmosphere, as well as interfacial processes. This session will focus on chemistry in the bulk phase and interfaces and will include topics such as the exchange of reactive and greenhouse gases, black carbon and aerosols, sea spray production, ocean acidification, and biogeochemical cycles of nutrients, and major and trace elements and isotopes.

Google has a service for organizing publications and citations to publications in scientific research. I created a “Profile” within Google Scholar for our group’s publications. The link is below, but it is also within the “Publications” area of this site.

The word of Peter’s excellent talk and Erin’s poster made it back to Alaska. Congrats to them on successful presentations!
Peter’s talk is today (Monday 9 Dec 2013) in the C12A. C12A. Physical and Chemical Air-Snow-Ice Interactions: From the Micro to the Global Scale II session. If you are at AGU, please check it out. Best of luck to Peter.
Graduate students Peter Peterson and Erin Gleason are headed to the Fall Meeting of the American Geophysical Union (AGU) to present recent results. Peter will give a talk and Erin a poster. Best wishes for your presentations at AGU and enjoy the meeting.
