个人简介
Alastair Lewis was appointed as professor of atmospheric chemistry at the University of York in 2006; previous to this he held the positions of Reader (at York) and Lecturer in the Schools of Chemistry and Environment at the University of Leeds. He completed a PhD at the University of Leeds using hyphenated chromatographic techniques for the analysis of urban and combustion particles, working subsequently on the development and application of chromatographic and mass spectrometric techniques for the measurement of organic compounds in the environment. He has participated in > 30 major atmospheric science field projects, from polar regions to tropical oceans, city centres to remote forests.
Alastair was awarded the Desty Memorial Prize for Innovation in Separation Science in 2001, a Philip Leverhulme Prize in Earth, Ocean and Atmospheric Science in 2004, the Royal Society of Chemistry SAC Silver Medal in 2006 and the 2012 Royal Society of Chemistry John Jeyes Award for Environment, Energy and Sustainability.
Alastair has more than 180 peer reviewed publications and book chapters, and was editor of the textbook Multidimensional Chromatography by John Wiley & Sons. He has held NERC, EPSRC, EU, Wolfson and Royal Society awards and was Principle Investigator on two major NERC consortium experimental atmospheric chemistry projects, TORCH and ITOP, the latter being the first experiment to use the FAAM146 aircraft. Alastair is a member of a number of expert advisory groups, including for the Department of Business Innovation and Skills, the National Physical Laboratory, STFC, Defra and WMO. He is currently a member of the REF-2014 sub-panel 8 (Chemistry).
