Rate My Professor Christopher Malley

Christopher Malley is a Senior Researcher at the Stockholm Environment Institute (SEI) York, University of York. He joined SEI in September 2015 as a Research Associate, focusing initially on the development of the Climate and Clean Air Coalition Supporting National Planning (CCAC SNAP) toolkit, which demonstrates the socio-economic benefits of national emission reductions of short-lived climate pollutants. His work involves formulating emission inventories, developing future scenarios, conducting cost-benefit analyses, and training toolkit users. Malley holds an MChem in Chemistry and a PhD in Atmospheric Chemistry, both from the University of Edinburgh. His doctoral research examined data from UK monitoring supersites to link atmospheric composition with impacts on human health and vegetation, employing various statistical tools and techniques.

Malley's research specializations center on air pollution, its health and environmental impacts, and strategies for mitigating emissions of short-lived climate pollutants to achieve co-benefits for climate and air quality. He contributes to the International Global Atmospheric Chemistry (IGAC) Tropospheric Ozone Assessment Report (TOAR) as a member of the statistics and database working group. Key publications include analyses of ozone exposure health burdens in the United States, Europe, and China (2018); distributions of hourly NO2 concentrations across Europe (2018); global, regional, and national assessments of preterm birth associated with maternal fine particulate matter exposure (2017); impacts and mitigation of excess diesel-related NOx emissions (2017); and updated global estimates of respiratory mortality attributable to long-term ozone exposure (2017). He has also co-authored reports on tropospheric ozone metrics for climate change, human health, and crop/ecosystem research. Malley maintains affiliations with the Department of Environment and Geography at the University of York.
