Research Interests
Dr. Ai's research and teaching interests center on integrating life cycle perspectives and locally-specific data into environmental planning and sustainability policy making. Her primary theme of interdisciplinary research is material and waste management in an urban metabolic context. She examines this traditionally engineering-dominant field from socioeconomic perspectives. Specific case studies have included food waste, electric vehicle batteries, e-waste and municipal solid waste in general. She has also implemented neighborhood-level data mining, environmental modelling, and metrics development to study transportation and environment.
