Cromar’s Contributions to Utah Air Quality Board
Improve Environmental Conditions and Public Health

Jun 08,2021
The Health, Environment, and Policy Program, led by Director Kevin Cromar, is collaborating on a newly funded NASA research project, “Enhancing Multi-Agency Wildfire Ensemble Forecasts for Health and Air Quality Decision Support in the U.S. and Beyond.” The project brings together Yunyao Li (University of Texas at Arlington), Daniel Tong (George Mason University), Laura Myers (Kaiser Permanente), and Cromar to advance the utility of wildfire-ensemble forecasts for public-health and air quality decisionmaking.
Cromar will contribute to efforts to align forecast improvements with the needs of health and risk-communication communities, engage with technical staff and collaborators at the U.S. EPA to support integration into the AirNow-Tech platform, and participate in model validation through comparisons with monitoring networks and existing forecasting tools. The team will also work with Kaiser Permanente Northern California to apply best practices in risk communication for informing patient populations.
