Air Quality Modeling and Exposure Lab
Healthier Air. Healthier Life.
AQMEL Mission
Hello and thank you for visiting the Air Quality Modeling & Exposure Lab website!
Our research centers on developing and applying advanced air quality modeling and data fusion approaches to characterize air pollution in the United States. These advanced approaches are used to answer questions related to community-scale exposure and source characterization. The lab is led by UC Berkeley Civil and Environmental Engineering professor, Dr. Cesunica E. Ivey.
Stay tuned for more updates to our new lab webpage! Meanwhile, feel free to peruse our recent publications!
AQMEL is now on Bluesky! Follow us there for updates!

"Assessing the Impact of Wildfire Smoke Transport Through Chemical Transport Modeling, Satellite Retrievals, and Ground-Based Observations of Ozone in Rural Nevada"
In our latest publication, Yi Ji leads an analysis of a diversity of data sources to better understand downwind impacts of wildfire smoke transport in areas with minimal anthropogenic sources. The analysis centers around a novel ground-based observational dataset, NVROI (University of Nevada Reno), which captures daily ozone mixing ratios at higher elevation locations across Nevada. The fundings support the use of ground-based ozone measurements and columnar satellite data to identify days where wildfire-based enhancements of ozone are present.
