Ozone and Particulate Matter Modeling
Ground-level ozone and particulate matter form from complex interactions among numerous pollutants. Understanding those photochemical processes is crucial to developing cost-effective control strategies. Our work has examined how ozone and particulate matter respond to emissions from a variety of natural and manmade sources. We have also used satellite data and in situ observations to evaluate the performance of the model simulations.
