Well-deserved recognition, Dana Coe!

On-Road Emissions Modeling Tool for Caltrans: CT-EMFAC ?? https://lnkd.in/guPUayDm Building on work completed over many years involving Sonoma Technology, U.C. Davis, and the California Department of Transportation (Caltrans), we continue to help Caltrans improve and expand the capabilities of the emissions modeling tool called CT-EMFAC. The tool quantifies on-road emissions of greenhouse gases (CO2e), criteria pollutants, and mobile source air toxics (MSATs) that originate from transportation projects. CT-EMFAC also estimates related electricity/fuel consumption to support energy assessments and enables users to develop inputs for near-road dispersion modeling with EPA’s AERMOD model.

New Smoke Impact Tool ??? https://lnkd.in/ggz8CkRc We're thrilled to unveil a groundbreaking smoke impact dashboard, developed by our scientists in collaboration with California and Nevada Smoke and Air Committee (CANSAC), the Desert Research Institute (DRI), and the California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection (CAL FIRE). This tool provides valuable insights to support decision-makers and communities during wildfire events, improving responses when smoke impacts air quality. Learn more about this innovative resource and how it addresses wildfire smoke challenges. Samantha J Kramer, PhD, Charles Scarborough, Megan Schill

Understanding Air Quality with Confidence ?? https://lnkd.in/gA7K_UTw Our latest publication with colleagues from NASA GMAO, Morgan State University, and Washington University in St. Louis, explores a cutting-edge framework for air quality estimation and forecasting that integrates data from models, satellites, and monitors. This method focuses on uncertainty quantifications and helps identify data gaps and improve decision-making. Testing shows promising results for nitrogen dioxide monitoring at sub-city scales, offering tools to support air quality management. We are currently validating these methods for real-time decision-making for select cities in the United States, South America, and Africa.
