Research Area: Air Quality and Atmosphere

How can satellite and geophysical data improve estimates of air pollution and atmospheric composition? We develop deep learning methods that fuse remote sensing with meteorological and land-surface variables to map fine particulate matter and related species at kilometer scales. Recent work includes daily 1-km PM estimation over North America and global fine PM mapping by incorporating geophysical variables into learning frameworks. This application area connects geospatial AI to environmental health and climate-adjacent sensing where ground monitors are sparse.
