Measuring Emissions of Methane and Ammonia Gas From NY Dairy Farms
…suggests that dairy farms may also be a significant source of atmospheric ammonia pollution in the Finger Lakes region, which may input nitrogen directly into the Finger Lakes, perhaps contributing…
Climate-Sensitive Risk Assessment for Targeted Prevention of Cardiometabolic Diseases
…Climate-associated exposures – such as air pollution, extreme heat, natural disasters, and climate migration – have emerged as major concerns for cardiometabolic health. This project will create new climate vulnerability…

…altering how communities move, behave, and survive. Light pollution either comes directly from streetlights and buildings or indirectly from reflections off the atmosphere. One of the world’s most well-known butterflies,…
Optimizing Semiconductor Manufacturing Processes to Eliminate Emissions of PFASs and High Global Warming Potential Gases
…tools to reduce both greenhouse gas emissions and persistent chemical pollution. Investigators: Damian E. Helbling (Cornell Duffield Engineering/Civil and Environmental Engineering), and Judy Cha (Cornell Duffield Engineering/Materials Science and Engineering)…
Power Huron Project
California’s planned electricity rate reform will save $700 million and prevent 8 million tons of greenhouse gas pollution each year. The state’s transition to time-of-use pricing, however, may stall if…

…scale as a consequence of anthropogenic nutrient pollution. Concurrently, aquaculture production systems, which are pivotal to achieving food security yet impact aquatic ecosystem health, are proliferating rapidly. Navigating the food…
Healthy Living in Smart Cities
Urban communities face major sustainability challenges that affect public health and quality of life, including snarled traffic, greenhouse gas emissions, and pollution. The researchers will design a comprehensive information infrastructure:…
