Jack Dibb

Dr. Jack Dibb is expanding horizons in the field of atmospheric chemistry as a research associate professor at the University of New Hampshire. With a keen focus on the intricate interactions between the atmosphere and snowpack, Dr. Dibb's work is pivotal in understanding the deposition and transformation of atmospheric pollutants in snow and ice. His research sheds light on how these processes influence the broader chemistry of the atmosphere and the environment, contributing significantly to our comprehension of climate dynamics and environmental change. Dr. Dibb has dedicated a substantial portion of his career to conducting extensive research in the polar regions, particularly Greenland and Antarctica. These remote and challenging environments provide a unique natural laboratory for studying the complex interactions between atmospheric components and the cryosphere. His work in these areas has been instrumental in advancing our knowledge of how pollutants travel and transform in cold climates, impacting both local and global atmospheric conditions. In addition to his polar research, Dr. Dibb has been an active participant in several NASA airborne campaigns aimed at studying tropospheric chemistry. These campaigns have allowed him to collaborate with a diverse group of scientists and utilize cutting-edge technology to gather data from various altitudes and geographical locations. His contributions to these projects have been invaluable in enhancing our understanding of atmospheric processes and their implications for climate and air quality. Dr. Dibb's research is characterized by a strong interdisciplinary approach, integrating aspects of chemistry, meteorology, and environmental science. His work not only contributes to the academic community but also informs policy and decision-making processes related to environmental protection and climate change mitigation. Through his dedication and expertise, Dr. Dibb continues to inspire the next generation of scientists and researchers in the field of Earth and environmental sciences. His commitment to education and mentorship is evident in his involvement with students and young researchers at the University of New Hampshire. Dr. Dibb is passionate about fostering a collaborative and inclusive research environment, encouraging innovative thinking and critical analysis among his students. His guidance has helped many aspiring scientists develop the skills and knowledge necessary to pursue successful careers in atmospheric and environmental sciences.
