Tracey Holloway is a Professor at the Nelson Institute for Environmental Studies at the University of Wisconsin-Madison. Her research focuses on the links between regional air quality, energy, and climate through the use of computer models and date from satellites.[1]

Holloway earned a bachelor's degree in Applied Math from Brown University and PhD in Atmospheric and Oceanic Sciences from Princeton University in 2001. She was a postdoctoral scholar at the Earth Institute at Columbia University.[2]

Holloway was one of five women who founded Earth Science Women's Network in 2002, which as of 2017 had around 3,000 members.[3][4]

Holloway served as Leopold Fellow in 2011,[5] a AAAS, received the first MIT Clean Energy Education and Empowerment Award in Education and Mentoring in 2012,[6] and was a Leshner Leadership Fellow in 2016-2017, and has served as the Leader of the NASA Health and Air Quality Applied Sciences Team starting in 2016.[2]

In May 2017, She co-authored a study in Environmental Science & Technology[7] that associated increased air conditioning use with increased levels of nitrogen oxides, sulfur dioxide, and carbon dioxide in the air.[8]
