Research summary
AI-generated

Qiaorong Xie studies the chemical makeup of airborne particles and organic matter, including smoke and haze pollutants, brown carbon, and dissolved organic material in water and soil. Much of the work uses advanced mass spectrometry and other analytical chemistry techniques to figure out what molecules make up air pollution and how they affect climate and human health. Prospective students would likely engage in lab-based chemical analysis of environmental samples such as smoke, fog, snow, and soil.
