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!

"Understanding the Sources and Formation Regimes of Present-Day PM2.5 to Mitigate Particulate Pollution in California"
Dr. Duncan Quevedo led contributions to a collaborative project on PM2.5 formation regimes across California. The goal of the work was to determine historical and present-day emission and meteorological regimes to guide the development of PM2.5 reduction strategies in non-attainment regions of CA. Dr. Quevedo conducted historical modeling of PM2.5, its components, and drivers of formation across California, and sub-hourly sensitivity modeling of experimental data from UC Riverside’s field campaigns in Bakersfield, Riverside, and Wilmington, CA. The report highlights region-specific mitigation strategies.
