MRes Atmospheric Science
Emission of anthropogenic pollutants into the air since industrialisation has resulted in a change in the composition of the Earth's atmosphere. Air pollution has now become a major concern for human and environmental health, and for the Earth's overall climate. Our Atmospheric Science MRes will help you understand our atmosphere and its many complex processes that are responsible for sustaining life as we know it.
You will learn about the chemistry and dynamics of the Earth’s atmosphere; how to observe, measure and model our air; what air quality actually means, and how we legislate for air pollutants. You’ll discover how to reduce air pollution effects and protect public and environmental health.
Joining a team of Brighton researchers who focus on developing practical solutions and strategies to help reduce negative impacts on air quality and climate, you will develop your research skills in this field. You'll have the opportunity to work at our JOAQUIN Advanced Air Quality Research (JAAQS) Observatory, one of the most advanced permanent tropospheric observatories in the UK.
You’ll work on a dedicated research project under the supervision of an academic member of staff who specialises in your area of research. And you’ll be linked to our research Centre for Earth Observation Science, or to research groups in Environment and Public Health or Applied Geosciences.
