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
