Dr. Sanford (Sandy) Sillman
Research Scientist
University of Michigan
Notice:
As of July, 2012 I am am bringing most of my work activities to a close.
I will be transitioning to full time leave due to a chronic medical condition
(multiple sclerosis). However, I hope to remain active in those areas of
research in which I have special expertise - tropospheric ozone and mercury,
especially in polluted regions. I hope to continue to be a resource in these
fields, and for atmospheric science in general. See
here
for more details.
"This most excellent canopy, the air, look you,
This brave o'erhanging firmament, this majestical roof
Fretted with golden fire, why it appears no other thing
To me but a foul and pestilent congregation of vapors"
-William Shakespeare
