University of Maryland and Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health researchers link air pollution in Baltimore’s Curtis Bay community to nearby coal terminal activity and wind.

Congratulations to the over 3,800 Spring 2025 semester Dean's List awardees from the University of Maryland's College of Computer, Mathematical, and Natural Sciences.

UMD Atmospheric and Oceanic Science Professor Ning Zeng co-authored new research on a simple way to capture carbon dioxide, a planet-warming gas. 

Art Associate Professor Cy Keener, Geographical Sciences and Atmospheric and Oceanic Science Associate Professor Sinead Farrell, and Computer Science and UMIACS Assistant Professor Christopher Metzler plan to develop advanced AI-driven photogrammetry and sensor fusion techniques to enhance long-term coastal monitoring efforts.

Funds support research focused on accessibility, social justice, sustainability and learning.

A University of Maryland-led study revealed that the bay is experiencing “significant increases” in annual heat waves, but satellites show that not all regions are warming equally.
