Stephen Bourguet is a climate scientist working with Prof. Megan Lickley on the emission and fate of fluorinated compounds. These chemicals lead to ozone destruction and are potent greenhouse gases, so understanding how long they will stay in the atmosphere is crucial for projecting the recovery of the ozone layer and future changes to Earth’s climate. Before Georgetown, Stephen completed his PhD in Harvard University’s Department of Earth and Planetary Sciences and his undergraduate studies at Brown University. Outside of work, Stephen is an avid runner and proud dog dad.
