The Microclimate in Water Droplets Research Group explores the unique environmental conditions within microscopic water droplets and their significance in various scientific fields. The group aims to investigate the temperature, humidity, and gas exchange dynamics in micro-droplets, study microbial and chemical interactions, and understand their role in ecosystems, including cloud formation and soil moisture retention. Research areas include atmospheric science, focusing on aerosols and weather patterns; microbial ecology, examining how microorganisms survive and interact within droplets; surface chemistry, analyzing reactions at air-water interfaces; biophysics, exploring evaporation, condensation, and phase transitions; and nanotechnology, developing lab-on-a-droplet technologies for diagnostics and environmental monitoring. Through experimental analysis, computational modeling, and field studies, the group seeks to advance knowledge with applications in climate science, public health, agriculture, and materials science.
