Biography
Dr. Lei Zhu is a Research Scientist at the Wadsworth Center, New York State Department of Health, and a professor in the Department of Environmental Health Sciences at SUNY-Albany. Dr. Zhu’s research program has been designed to investigate and understand what controls the atmosphere’s energy balance and how chemical reactions impact composition, pollutant and oxidant formation in the earth’s environment. Her research interests include kinetics and photochemistry of homogeneous and heterogeneous atmospheric reactions, atmospheric application of cavity ring-down spectroscopy and its variants, and atmospheric application of time-resolved FT-IR.
Abstract
Abstract : Why is gas phase photolysis of 2-nitrophenol a significant source of OH in the polluted atmosphere?
