معرفی
Dr James Levine is a Senior Research Fellow at the School of Geography, Earth and Environmental Sciences, University of Birmingham. He specializes in air quality research, integrating atmospheric science with software development for practical urban applications. His work bridges natural and built environments, focusing on pollution mitigation and transport decarbonization.
Education:
- BA (Hons) Architecture, University of Lincoln (2016)
- PhD Atmospheric Science, University of Cambridge (2007)
- MA, University of Cambridge (2004)
- MSci (Hons) Natural Sciences, University of Cambridge (2002)
Research Interests: Dr Levine’s work spans air quality modeling, green infrastructure design, and urban pollution mitigation. He develops tools like the GI4RAQ Platform for non-specialists to assess vegetation barriers’ effectiveness in reducing roadside pollution. His recent projects include an indoor air quality modeling system and leadership in the UKRI-funded TRANSITION Clean Air Network, which optimizes transport decarbonization benefits.
Advising & Grants: No formal advisees listed. Current initiatives include the Indoor Air Quality Emissions and Modelling System led by Dr Christian Pfrang and the TRANSITION Network collaboration with 20+ cross-sector partners.
Labs/Teams: Leads software development for air quality tools and collaborates with urban practitioners through co-design frameworks. Active in UK-wide clean air initiatives and indoor/outdoor pollution modeling.
