Postdoctoral Research Scientist in Climate Effects

Is a post-doc currently working on the InHALE project, looking at the climate impacts of halocarbons emitted into the atmosphere.

Gill has previously worked on various aspects of aerosols in the atmosphere, most recently on the radiative forcing and feedbacks from a variety of aerosols.
