PROFESSIONAL INTERESTS:
Dr. Lowenthal's current research interests include the effects of natural and anthropogenic aerosols on cloud microphysics and precipitation rates, visibility, and source apportionment modeling. Before joining DRI, Dr. Lowenthal conducted research at the University of Rhode Island on long-range transport of pollution aerosols to the Arctic and acid deposition in the northeastern U.S.
