About
Dr. Domenico Taraborrelli is a researcher at the Institute of Climate and Energy Systems (ICE), Forschungszentrum Jülich GmbH, leading the Atmospheric Chemistry in the Earth System group. His work focuses on atmospheric oxidation capacity, organic aerosol formation, and chemistry-climate interactions, with a particular emphasis on multiphase chemical transformations and their impacts on air quality and climate.

Research Interests include atmospheric chemical kinetics, secondary organic aerosol formation, and feedback mechanisms between climate and air pollution. His studies integrate experimental data with global models (e.g., EMAC, ECHAM/MESSy) to quantify processes in cloud droplets, urban environments, and biogenic emissions.
Recent publications highlight his expertise in ozone variability under climate change, aqueous-phase chemistry, and advanced modeling techniques for atmospheric chemical reactions. Key topics include nitrogen oxides, volatile organic compounds, and chlorine chemistry in diverse atmospheric conditions.
Labs & Teams: Collaborates with the CAABA/MECCA model development team and contributes to the MESSy framework. His group operates within the Troposphere department, conducting chamber experiments (e.g., SAPHIR simulation chamber) and global simulations to study atmospheric composition changes.
