معرفی
Loretta J. Mickley is a Senior Research Fellow at Harvard University's John A. Paulson School of Engineering and Applied Sciences. Her research focuses on chemistry-climate interactions in the troposphere, with key topics including wildfire smoke impacts, climate change effects on air quality, and aerosol-radiation interactions.
- Wildfire smoke and health impacts
- Climate-air quality feedbacks
- Aerosol trends and climate forcing
- Paleo atmospheric chemical cycles
Recent research trends span wildfire risk modeling, biomass burning exposure, and air quality sensor optimization. Publications emphasize atmospheric transport, chemical feedbacks, and health disparities in regions like California, Australia, and the Amazon.
Her work informs climate policy and public health interventions, particularly in environmental justice communities and rapidly urbanizing tropical regions. She co-leads Harvard's Atmospheric Chemistry Modeling Group.
