Abstract 		Professor Zender is an atmospheric physicist interested in the distribution and fluxes of energy and trace species in the Earth's atmosphere. His work focuses on the effects of trace gases, aerosols, and clouds on the radiative and chemical budgets of the climate system. He uses a hierarchy of computer models (from box microphysical models to coupled general circulation models) combined with lab, field, and satellite data to investigate these processes and to assess their impact on Earth's climate.
