News
2026/02/01 – The webpage is live! The first accessible model is Krüger et al's machine learning tool for vapor pressure estimation.
2026/07/24 – Two more models have been added, Lelieveld et al's KM-SUB-ELF kinetic multilayer model of the human respiratory tract, and Krüger et al's prediction model for the CO2 gas exchange of biological soil crusts.
About the Berkemeier Group
Situated within the Multiphase Chemistry Department (Prof. Ulrich Pöschl) at the Max Planck Institute for Chemistry, Mainz, our group focuses on the investigation of chemical kinetics in the atmosphere, in technical applications and in the human body.
