Professor Claudia Mohr joins the Associate Editor team
Welcome to Environmental Science: Atmospheres!
We are delighted to welcome Professor Claudia Mohr, Stockholm University, Sweden, as a new Associate Editor for Environmental Science: Atmospheres.
“[I’m most looking forward] To reading about all the exciting research results first! To learning and expanding my knowledge, to discussing science with reviewers and peers, and to contributing to high-quality publications”
Claudia is an Assistant Professor in atmospheric science at the Department of Environmental Science (ACES) at Stockholm University (SU). She received her PhD in environmental sciences in 2011 from the Paul Scherrer Institute (PSI) / ETH Zurich (Switzerland).
“I started to really become interested in Atmospheric Sciences and climate change as a student at ETH Zurich (I studied Environmental Sciences), and then got completely hooked on experimental atmospheric research during an internship at the Paul Scherrer Institute in Switzerland. There I discovered the fun (and stress!) of field work, and more generally, of research.”
Claudia joined SU in 2017 after a postdoc at the University of Washington, Seattle, and a researcher position at Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT), Germany. In her research she focuses on the chemical composition of aerosol particles and gases using advanced mass spectrometric techniques to derive sources, formation processes, and effects for air quality and climate.
“Worry (about the environment) and interest both played important roles in my choice of field of study, Environmental Sciences, but first I did not have a particular focus in mind. I realized then very quickly at university that I was most fascinated by all topics and courses related to the Atmosphere. And that was it.”
She is a Wallenberg Academy Fellow, received the 2018 Atmospheric Sciences Division Outstanding Early Career Scientists Award of the European Geosciences Union, and the Schmauss Award 2020, and was among the Clarivate Analytics Highly Cited Researchers in 2019. She also serves as an Associate Editor for Ambio.
