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!
28 January 2025: Attention Prospective Students and Postdocs

"GPU Implementation of a Gas-Phase Chemistry Solver in the CMAQ Chemical Transport Model"
Our team has developed a graphics processing unit (GPU) solution for the Rosenbrock solver in the Community Multiscale Air Quality (CMAQ) model's gas-phase chemistry module. First demonstrated at the desktop scale, the solution has been modified for parallel computing on high-performance computing systems. This novel implementation is operated in-line and is future-proof design, meaning the approach is usable for future chemical mechanisms.
