Research Interests:

GIScience, geospatial modeling, air pollution, and environmental justice. I applied machine learning, urban morphology theory, air quality modeling, and geovisualization techniques to understand the human-environment interaction systems, such as human mobility patterns, and spatiotemporal disparities of individual exposure to air pollutants.
