Department: Lunar and Planetary Laboratory
Email: smoran14 at jhu.edu
Research Interests: aerosol formation, atmospheric evolution, clouds, hazes
Sarah recently completed her graduate studies at Johns Hopkins working on a combination of atmospheric models and laboratory experiments to understand aerosol formation on exoplanets. She’s interested in the effects of such aerosols on the temperature structure, radiative transfer, and ultimately on the habitability of new worlds. She’s also very interested in science communication and science policy. Sarah is currently a Postdoctoral researcher at the lunar and planetary laboratory at the University of Arizona which she started following a brief stint as a researcher at NASA Ames.
