I am a research scientist at CEREA, a joint laboratory École des Ponts Paristech - EDF R & D since 2005.
My research field concerns Air Quality Modelling and more specifically:

Development of multiscale modelling approaches

Analyse of source / concentrations relationships

Modelling deposition fluxes of atmospheric pollutants
