Giulia Zazzeri

Giulia Zazzeri is a Research Associate in Atmospheric Trace Gas Measurements at Imperial College London.3 Her work focuses on measuring and analyzing atmospheric gases, particularly carbon dioxide and methane.3

Research Expertise

Zazzeri specializes in:

• Measuring concentrations of carbon dioxide and methane in the atmosphere3
• Attributing emissions to specific sources3
• Developing methods for atmospheric methane sampling and analysis12

Notable Contributions

One of Zazzeri's significant contributions is her work on improving radiocarbon measurements of atmospheric methane. She was involved in developing a new portable sampler for atmospheric methane that enables radiocarbon measurements.1 This innovation is important because:

• Radiocarbon (14C) measurements help distinguish between fossil and biogenic methane sources12
• The new sampling technology makes the extraction process simpler and more time-efficient1
• It aims to expand the use of 14C measurements for better understanding methane sources1

Impact of Her Work

Zazzeri's research has implications for:

• Improving the accuracy of greenhouse gas emission estimates
• Enhancing our understanding of methane sources and their contributions to atmospheric concentrations
• Supporting efforts to mitigate climate change by providing more precise data on emission sources

Her work contributes to the broader field of atmospheric science and climate research, helping to refine our knowledge of greenhouse gas dynamics and their impact on the environment.
