Ariya, Parisa

Parisa Ariya is a Professor in the Department of Chemistry at McGill University, affiliated with both Chemistry and Atmospheric & Oceanic Sciences. Her research spans environmental chemistry, physical chemistry, and analytical chemistry, focusing on physicochemical processes involving particles and pollutants in the atmosphere and its interfaces. She develops sustainable technologies for pollution remediation and advanced detection methods for trace substances. Ariya teaches courses such as Introduction to Atmospheric Science and Advances in Chemistry of Atmosphere. Her work addresses climate change, air pollution, and environmental health, with an emphasis on interdisciplinary approaches combining field observations, laboratory experiments, and numerical modeling.

Parisa A. Ariya is a Professor at McGill University, specializing in Atmospheric and interfacial Chemistry, sustainable technology, spectroscopy, and climate change. Her research explores the chemical processes involving halogens, mercury, and bioaerosols in the atmosphere, with a focus on their environmental and climatic impacts. Ariya's work includes the study of ozone depletion, mercury transformation, and the role of bioaerosols in atmospheric chemistry. Her research also addresses the physicochemical and biogeochemical behavior of pollutants and their implications for human health and climate systems. Through spectroscopic and theoretical approaches, she investigates the interactions between gaseous and particulate matter in the atmosphere.
