Jane Lee Fox is a physicist known for her research on the atmosphere of planets including Mars and Venus. She has many published works at her current institution, Wright State University.
Education and career
[edit]Jane Fox attended Bloomfield Hills Lahser High School from 1967-1970.
Fox has a B.S. in chemistry from the University of Michigan (1973)[1] and earned her Ph.D. in chemical physics from Harvard University in 1978.[2] She was on the faculty at Stony Brook University from 1984 to 2003.[citation needed][3] Fox joined Wright State University in 2002 as a research professor at Wright State University in the Boonshoft School of Medicine.[4][5]
Research
[edit]Fox is known for her research modeling the atmosphere on Mars,[6] including details on nitrogen found in the Martian atmosphere.[7] She has also worked on the atmosphere around Venus[8][9] and examined hydrocarbons in atmosphere of Titan, one of the moon's of Saturn.[10] Fox was a member of the science team for the Mars Atmosphere and Volatile Evolution (MAVEN) project[11] where she studied long-term changes in Mars' atmosphere.[12][13]
Since 1977, Fox has published 92 articles and 85 presentations in her field.[14]
