Frank Keutsch is a renowned expert in Atmospheric Science within the Department of Chemistry and Chemical Biology at Harvard University. His research primarily focuses on improving the understanding of photochemical oxidation processes of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and their role in tropospheric ozone formation and secondary organic aerosol (SOA) production. These elements are critical as they comprise significant secondary pollutants that impact human health and climate. Through a combination of field observations and laboratory studies, Keutsch aims to provide new insights into these complex chemical processes. His work involves the development of instrumentation and methods to test and improve atmospheric chemistry models, making significant contributions to the scientific community’s understanding of the radiative effects of aerosols. His investigations span various environments, including urban areas, remote tropical forests, and polar regions, with a focus on understanding the anthropogenic influences on tropospheric chemistry at a global scale.
