Risk in the Future

• Particulate matter episodes with more frequency and intensity
• Depleting atmospheric carrying capacity
• Climate change affecting local rain pattern
• Biodiversity loss from infrastructure development

Vulnerability

• Dense urban population subjecting to high pollution
• Communities bearing the unaccounted cumulative impact of industrialization and urbanization
• Agriculture-based economy’s reliance on rainfall
• Habitat under pressure of development

Research

• High-resolution regional chemical transport model to support appropriate designing of PM2.5 mitigation
• Modeling of ultrafine PM and aerosol microphysics
• Aerosol indirect climate forcing
• Geoinformatics to support decision making for ecological-friendly infrastructure development

Research Interest

• Aerosol emission, fate, and transport
• Chemical transport model of air pollution
• Air pollution dispersion model
• Climate change
• Habitat defragmentation
