Alex Bradley

Alex Bradley started as a graduate student in the group of Joost de Gouw in the Fall of 2020. His main focus has been on air quality disparities in the U.S. with a particular focus on Denver. He is now working on methane emissions in Colorado using satellite remote sensing data from the TROPOMI instrument.
