Russell R. Dickerson, Professor Department of Atmospheric and Oceanic Science The University of Maryland College Park, MD 20742
Affiliate Professor Department of Chemistry, Chemical Physics Program, and Earth System Science Interdisciplinary Center
Prof. Dickerson's research focuses on the multidisciplinary areas of air pollution, greenhouse gases, and environmental justice. He is known for experiments that provide insight into the interaction of meteorology and atmospheric chemistry. His research group, composed of chemists and meteorologists, develops analytical instruments (for NOx, NOy, NH3, CO, SO2, CO2, CH4, and aerosols including black carbon), employs these instruments in the laboratory, field, and on ships and aircraft, and interprets the results in terms of photochemistry and atmospheric physics.
Fellow of the American Geophysical Union and American Association for the Advancement of Science.
