air pollution inequality
Air pollution disproportionately harms Black, Latinx, and Asian communities in U.S. cities. We advance the use of space-based and surface observations to describe and inform decision-making around environmental racism.
air pollution and the biosphere
Atmosphere-biosphere exchange mechanisms are complex, variable, and uncertain. We make measurements at leaf and landscape scales to investigate atmosphere-biosphere interactions affecting air quality.
urban atmospheric chemistry
Trends in nitrogen oxides are altering atmospheric oxidation. We make and use multi-year measurements and natural experiments to describe changes in atmospheric oxidation chemistry in cities around the world.
air pollution and agriculture
Agriculture is a growing source of atmospheric reactive nitrogen. We use satellite, aircraft, and surface observations to understand its air quality impacts, nitrous oxide emissions, and environmental justice issues.

Wading Between Two Titans is a new podcast from The Repair Lab about place, race, and power in the time of rising tides. A limited series investigating climate gentrification and sea-level rise, the podcast asks: as sea level rises and shorelines shrink, who gets to stay, who has to leave, how did we get here, and what can be done?

Main Street Speaks covers rural news, politics, and history from the perspective of three UVA undergraduate students from the Northern Neck of Virginia. Past episodes have covered local elections, food insecurity, rural education, and much more. The Repair Lab sponsored a series of episodes covering environmental justice in rural areas.
