The Air Resources Laboratory (ARL) conducts research and development in the fields of air quality,
atmospheric dispersion, and climate. Key activities
include the development, evaluation, and application
of air quality models; improvement of approaches for
predicting atmospheric dispersion of hazardous materials;
and the generation of new insights into air-surface
exchange and climate variability and trends.
The goal of our work is to improve the Nation's ability
to protect human and ecosystem health while also maintaining
a vibrant economy.
