Research interests
Prof Murray researches nucleation and crystallisation throughout the Earth's atmosphere, in collaboration with aerosol and cloud modellers.
Major areas of research include:
- Role of ice formation in clouds and climate
- Heterogeoeus ice nucleation on aerosol such as mineral dust, soot and biogenic materials
- Measurements of the concentration of atmospheric ice nucleating particles from airborne, ship or ground based platforms
- Global modelling of ice nucleating particle distributions
- Aerosol-cloud interactions
