معرفی
Jules Kerckhoffs is an Assistant Professor at Utrecht University's Faculty of Veterinary Medicine, specifically within the Department of Population Health Sciences under the Institute for Risk Assessment Sciences (IRAS). His work focuses on air pollution exposure assessment and its health impacts.
- Expertise: Air Quality, Environmental Epidemiology, Exposure Assessment
- Skills: GIS Analysis, R Programming, Data Analysis
- Teaching: Environmental Health courses
His research spans air pollution mapping, ultrafine particles, and mobile monitoring using Google Street View cars. He has developed land use regression (LUR) models for hyperlocal NO2 concentrations and evaluated machine learning for spatial pollutant prediction. His position paper on mobile monitoring highlights use cases and challenges in urban air quality assessment.
Recent studies analyze traffic noise and depression, façade-level particle concentrations, and street trees' impact on pollutants (NO2, BC, UFP, PM2.5). Collaborations include institutions like Health Effects Institute, Environmental Science: Atmospheres, and Environmental Modelling and Software.
He employs R for statistical analysis and ArcGIS for geospatial modeling. Publications in 2025-2024 emphasize transfer learning, spatiotemporal variability, and nationwide exposure models across Europe.
