Welcome to the Pratt Lab blog! Dr. Kerri Pratt is an assistant professor in the Departments of Chemistry and Earth & Environmental Sciences and faculty associate of the Program in the Environment at the University of Michigan. We study the chemical interactions of atmospheric trace gases, particles, clouds, and snow, with a focus on the Polar Regions and wintertime environments. Our interdisciplinary research has relevance to climate change, air quality, and human health. As an analytical chemistry lab, we primarily apply novel mass spectrometry techniques to our field research. We invite you to follow our adventures in (and outside!) the lab!

Arctic aerosol growth paper published!

Congratulations to Pratt Lab post-doc Katie Kolesar, former undergraduate student Jillian Cellini, and post-doc Peter Peterson! Their paper details the first investigation of the occurrence and driving forces of aerosol growth events at Utqiaġvik (Barrow), Alaska and the finding of the importance of the Prudhoe Bay oilfields in this process. Check out "Effect of Prudhoe Bay emissions on atmospheric aerosol growth events observed in Utqiaġvik (Barrow), Alaska", published in Atmospheric Environment!
