Atmospheric Chemistry and Physics ACP Award 2024
ACP Award 2024 goes to Dominique Rust, EMPA
At the Swiss Geoscience meeting in Basel in November 2024, the ACP Award for Atmospheric Research was presented to Dominique Rust for her PhD thesis “Verification of halogenated greenhouse gas emissions by regional atmospheric observations in Europe”. Her work covers a wide range of methods, from precision measurements of gases to statistical data analysis. The award committee was particularly impressed by one part of her thesis work: In a tracer-release experiment she could quantify emissions from a fluorocarbon industry cluster and could show that effective abatement measures do reduce HFC emissions.
