Aims

  1. To determine the impact and causes of stratosphere to troposphere ozone transport (STT) using ozonesones and ECMWF weather reanalysis data. Work on this aim is almost complete, hopefully I can submit a paper to ACP as first author in early 2016.

  2. To quantify Australian isoprene emissions using satellite data and the GEOS-Chem model. This will be commenced soon.

  3. To attribute Australian ozone influence from isoprene, and STT sources over particular sites using in-situ data and model output.

  4. To improve the GEOS-Chem model by allowing increased resolution over Australia.

  5. To quantify Australia’s dust emissions and transport modelled by GEOS-Chem and validate against in-situ and remote sensing data.
