After graduating in Chemistry at the University of La Laguna, I obtained a postgraduate scholarship from the AEMET, where I trained in (i) several measurement techniques (ozone, UV radiation, and different physicochemical properties of atmospheric aerosols), (ii) programming languages to analyze large volumes of data, and (iii) the guidelines of the Global Atmosphere Watch (GAW) program managed by the World Meteorological Organization (WMO).
DI conducted my predoctoral research at AEMET, studying the origin of atmospheric aerosols transported in the North Atlantic free troposphere. To this end, I completed stays at the Institute of Environmental Assessment and Water Research (Barcelona) and the Rosenstiel School of Marine, Atmospheric, and Earth Science (Miami).
Currently, my scientific interests focus on the origin, sources, and chemical composition (with a particular interest in organic compounds) of atmospheric aerosols, as well as their impact on climate, ecosystems, and human health.
Atmospheric sciences, atmospheric aerosols (composition, origin, sources, transport, and impact), new particle formation, air quality.
