Loren Temple

Dr. Loren Temple is an Atmosphere-Ocean Scientist affiliated with the Marine Processes and Observations group. Her work focuses on the air-sea exchange of climate-active gases, utilizing field measurements in marine environments to enhance climate models.

• Education: PhD in Atmospheric Chemistry (University of York)

Dr. Temple's research centers on quantifying fluxes of climate-relevant gases like sulfur dioxide, integrating chemical, physical, and biological processes across remote marine regions. She has led instrumental development and deployments in aircraft and ship campaigns.

Her recent projects include the CARES and COCO-VOC NERC Large Grants, which target sulfur's role in the Earth system and marine atmospheric oxidative capacity. Publications span intercomparison studies of measurement techniques and Earth system data synthesis.

Scientific Awards & Grants:

• CARES (NERC Large Grant)
• COCO-VOC (NERC Large Grant)

Dr. Temple has conducted fieldwork in the Arctic, North Atlantic, and participated in aircraft campaigns to study shipping emissions and atmospheric chemistry.
