Welcome to the Particle Measurement & Technology Laboratory (PMTL) led by Yang Wang at the University of Miami. At PMTL, we apply aerosol measurement and particle technology to understand the environmental and climate impacts of aerosols. Our research focuses on examining the “Structure-Property” relationship of laboratory and atmospheric aerosols.
Our research projects are enabled by the real-time characterization of aerosols in the sub-micron and sub-nanometer range. Novel techniques are being deployed in our lab to study the incipient particle formation with a high size resolution, to examine the evolution of transient particles with a high time resolution, and to conduct air quality monitoring with a stronger network. Currently, our research involves combustion aerosols, atmospheric aerosols, and health-related aerosols. More details of these projects can be found on our Research tab.
