CO2 + O3 PAP Papers + Diurnal Mars Modeling Paper

These manuscripts provide the first analyses to illustrate the nonlinear physicochemical mechanism that govern all production and loss processes that control CO2 and O3 in the Martian lower atmosphere. Even more novel, Viudez-Moreiras et...

Multiphase Nitrate Photochemistry & Biologically-Induced Iodine Release from Sea-Ice Papers

These foundation papers provided one of the first publications to quantitatively exemplify the multi-phase physicochemical mechanisms that control the temporal distribution of nitrogen oxides and iodine species in snowpack/sea-ice and...

Bella et al (2015) + Clarke-Lambert et al (2019) Papers

These select Environmental and Social Justice projects provided students and the broader community and culturally-responsive counter-/safe-spaces for students to engage in NASA geospatial technology and assets – in addition to...

Nitrate Photochemistry and Interrelated Chemical Phenomenon in Ice

Dr. Christopher Blaszczak-Boxe’s thesis elucidates the physicochemical mechanisms that govern the impact anthropogenic emissions from low-to-middle latitudes. Blaszczak-Boxe and Saiz-Lopez (2018) provides one of the latest critical reviews...
