Biography

Barbara Brooks joined the group in June 2000 after three years spent at Sunderland University working with Prof. Mike Smith who himself joined the group from Sunderland in Jan 2000. The main research activity has been in the development of measurement systems to determine atmospheric aerosol size differentiated chemical composition and structure as well as participating in air and land based field campaigns.
