RESEARCH:
Dr. Anenberg's research examines interrelationships between air quality, climate change, public health, and environmental policy. She uses multi-disciplinary methods, drawing from epidemiology, exposure science, remote sensing, atmospheric chemistry and meteorology, numerical modeling, and economics.
Previous research included pioneering and applying methods to estimate the global mortality burden of ambient air pollution, linking epidemiology with chemical transport modeling. Her 2010 Environmental Health Perspectives article showed that the air pollution burden of disease could be 5 times larger than previously estimated by the World Health Organization. While working at the U.S. EPA, she collaborated with an international team of researchers to show that mitigating climate change could have substantial health co-benefits, reversing trends of worsening air pollution in Africa and South, West, and Central Asia. This work, published in Science and Environmental Health Perspectives in 2012, led in part to the formation of the Climate and Clean Air Coalition to Reduce Short-Lived Climate Pollutants, which now includes over 50 countries and many intergovernmental and non-governmental organizations. In 2017, she co-led an article published in Nature, which estimated the public health consequences of excess diesel NOx emissions from light-duty and heavy-duty vehicles worldwide. In 2019, she was the senior author on an article published in Lancet Planetary Health that estimated for the first time the global burden of NO2 pollution on pediatric asthma incidence.
Dr. Anenberg's current research interests include:
- Health impacts of climate change. Future changes in air quality, wildfires, dust storms, aeroallergens, and temperature are expected to influence cardiovascular and respiratory disease. We are exploring the degree to which these changes in environmental conditions may impact public health in the U.S. and globally.
- Health impacts of air pollution. Ambient air pollution is the single largest environmental health risk factor affecting people around the world -- and the 5th leading risk factor overall. We are developing new methods to estimate the impacts of air pollution on health, incorporating new knowledge about the various health outcomes affected, as well as new scientific tools to assess exposure, such as satellite remote sensing.
- Health co-benefits of actions to mitigate air pollution and climate change. Air pollution and climate change influence each other and are interlinked by common sources of emissions. Many actions that can be taken to mitigate one will also benefit the other. We are working to understand ways in which public health can benefit from addressing both air pollution and climate change together, particularly focusing on cities and urban planning worldwide. We are also developing decision-support tools that can help policy-makers better evaluate the consequences of different options for public health.
