This ES&T Letters study by @joshapte of @BerkeleyCee @UCBerkeley @UCBerkeleySPH quantifies the monitoring gaps in the #SLAMS network’s ability to detect concentration hotspots under the new #PM2.5 standard. #NAAQS

New paper out today!
We have a great new PM2.5 air pollution standard.
But our US EPA monitoring network has crucial gaps. It may miss many places that exceed the new standard.
More monitoring can help!

I am more interested in finding creative, motivated and highly skilled candidates than in finding a perfect fit with a funded project. Please apply and tell us about your own interests!
Reach out to me with questions.
Initial review begins Nov 15.

(1) Mobile monitoring.
We have several large mobile monitoring campaigns starting in late 2024, including CARB's exciting Statewide Mobile Monitoring Initiative to map air pollution in disadvantaged communities.
And we have a snazzy new UC Berkeley mobile air quality lab.

Excited to share my latest work in ES&T Letters @EnvSciTech!
We find that US air pollution monitoring network lacks adequate coverage, leaving millions of people unprotected under the stricter 2024 PM2.5 standard.

Campus researchers have discovered consistent racial disparities in exposure to PM2.5 — fine particulate matter in the air — from cars, trucks and other vehicles, despite an average reduction in exposure to vehicle air pollution in California

Hear me out: maybe we don't do hydrogen passenger trains?
"Because of delivery bottlenecks, the hydrogen train in the German state of Lower Saxony cannot operate as planned. Instead, five diesel trains currently service the line, while the hydrogen trains are shorter than usual to conserve fuel."

Out today in @ScienceAdvances!
How have 20 years of cleaner cars and trucks in California impacted PM2.5 air pollution exposure disparities?
We found good news, not-good news, and some surprises.
With @LibbyKoolik, @MarshallJulian and @OEHHA.
