About
Jessica Tryner is a leading researcher in low-cost air quality monitoring and aerosol science, with a focus on bridging critical gaps in global particulate matter (PM2.5) measurement. Her most cited work, "A low-cost monitor for simultaneous measurement of fine particulate matter and aerosol optical depth – Part 1: Specifications and testing" (2019, 16 citations), introduces an innovative, affordable device that simultaneously measures PM2.5 and aerosol optical depth (AOD). This breakthrough addresses a major challenge in environmental health: satellite-based AOD estimates of PM2.5 often lack ground-truth validation, especially in under-resourced regions. Tryner’s monitor enables dense, cost-effective sensor networks, improving the accuracy of air pollution exposure assessments worldwide. Her contributions are vital for understanding the health impacts of PM2.5—a leading cause of death and disease—and for informing policy in data-scarce areas. By democratizing air quality monitoring, Tryner’s work empowers communities and researchers to tackle environmental degradation with accessible tools.
