Daniel J. Cziczo studies atmospheric aerosols and how tiny particles in the air influence cloud and ice formation, which matters for understanding weather and climate. His work combines laboratory experiments, field measurements (including aircraft campaigns), and instrument development to examine how different particle types—organic aerosols, sea salt, stratospheric particles—act as 'ice-nucleating particles' that trigger ice crystal formation in clouds. He also contributes to broader assessments of climate intervention (geoengineering) and stratospheric chemistry.
