Jason Michael St Clair

Jason Michael St Clair is a Research Scientist at NASA Goddard Space Flight Center, affiliated with the University of Maryland Baltimore CO. He specializes in atmospheric chemistry, formaldehyde measurement, and oxidation mechanisms of biogenic compounds like isoprene.

• Post Doctorate in Environmental Science and Engineering, California Institute of Technology (2007–2011)
• Ph.D. in Chemistry, Harvard University (2007)
• BA in Chemistry with minors in Mathematics and Geology, Colby College (2000)

His research focuses on formaldehyde (HCHO) dynamics, hydroxyl radical (OH) variability, and airborne chemical ionization mass spectrometry. He develops advanced LIF instruments for in situ atmospheric measurements and investigates isoprene oxidation products and oxygenated VOCs.

Recent publications highlight his work on satellite-airborne HCHO validation, wildfire plume chemistry, and novel sensor development. Articles span 2008–2021, emphasizing gas-phase reactions, instrumentation, and remote tropospheric oxidation.
