Research Activities

  • Participated and coordinated analysis and measurement of different physical and chemical characteristics of pollutants and modeled the contribution from different sources at several sites in Southern California including Los Angeles-Long Beach harbor community
  • Participated in a multi-disciplinary project on assessing the exposure to different pollutants
  • Air pollution modeling including source apportionment modeling and dispersion modeling
  • Emission measurements, testing and controls, conducting analyses, air emission calculations and operating and maintaining several air quality measurement instruments
  • Participated in multi-million dollar environmental projects with EPA, California Air Resources Board and Southern California Air Quality Management District
  • Reviewing and analyzing results of testing, sampling and laboratory analysis and preparing related technical reports
  • Generated scientific evidence to support EPA’s effort to update VOC based ozonreactivity policy
  • Monitored airborne pollutants chemical composition in Atlanta and installed four sampling stations to collect daily samples and analyzed them using IC and TOT
  • Simulated the water quality situation of Latiyan resorvoir using HEC-5Q
  • Analyzed effects of water diversion of one of Latiyan reservoir entrance on its water quality
  • Monitored water quality of a Latiyan reservoir by regular sampling and analysis such as BOD, TSS and DO
