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!

Paper published on Canadian wildfire smoke and biogenic SOA impacting northern Michigan!

Congratulations to Pratt Lab PhD Dr. Matt Gunsch and PhD student Nate May on their paper published in Atmospheric Chemistry & Physics titled "Ubiquitous influence of wildfire emissions and secondary organic aerosol on summertime atmospheric aerosol in the forested Great Lakes region". We observed long-transported Canadian wildfire smoke particles with thick SOA coatings at the University of Michigan Biological Station in July 2014!
