J. C. Wilson

James C. Wilson received the Ph.D. degree in mechanical engineering from the University of Minnesota, Minneapolis, in 1977. He is currently a John Evans Professor of Mechanical and Materials Engineering with the University of Denver. His Aerosol Research Group develops and uses instruments and sampling inlets to characterize airborne particles. It has operated instruments and inlets on NASA, NOAA, NSF, and U.K. Met office aircraft from 72 to 90 N and from sea level to 22 km altitude. They study air quality, the impact of volcanic eruptions, the role of particles in ozone depletion, new particle formation, and aerosol cloud interactions.
