Biography

Becky Alexander is a professor and director of the Program on Climate Change at the University of Washington. Her research focuses on the feedbacks that arise from climate change and the chemical composition of the atmosphere. She investigates the pathways of atmospheric pollutants and how these pathways vary in time and space, particularly in relation to present-day air quality and future climate scenarios. Her work includes extensive laboratory analyses of polar ice cores and atmospheric aerosols, which are used to understand how the atmosphere has responded to climate change over the past 100,000 years. Additionally, she builds three-dimensional models to visualize how atmospheric chemistry has been influenced by climate change throughout this time period.
