Overview

What is she best known for?

The fields of study she is best known for:

  • Meteorology
  • Aerosol
  • Organic chemistry

Aerosol, Particle, Meteorology, Particle number and Atmospheric sciences are her primary areas of study. Her Aerosol research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Spectrometer, Nucleation, Mineralogy and Analytical chemistry. The Meteorology study combines topics in areas such as Remote sensing and Soot particles.

Her research investigates the connection with Particle number and areas like Particle size which intersect with concerns in Electrical mobility. The Diurnal temperature variation research she does as part of her general Atmospheric sciences study is frequently linked to other disciplines of science, such as Growth rate, therefore creating a link between diverse domains of science. Birgit Wehner focuses mostly in the field of Air quality index, narrowing it down to matters related to Air pollution and, in some cases, Mass concentration and Particulates.

Her most cited work include:

  • A European aerosol phenomenology—1: physical characteristics of particulate matter at kerbside, urban, rural and background sites in Europe (955 citations)
  • Mobility particle size spectrometers: harmonization of technical standards and data structure to facilitate high quality long-term observations of atmospheric particle number size distributions (456 citations)
  • Rapid aerosol particle growth and increase of cloud condensation nucleus activity by secondary aerosol formation and condensation: A case study for regional air pollution in northeastern China (323 citations)

What are the main themes of her work throughout her whole career to date?

Her primary areas of study are Aerosol, Atmospheric sciences, Particle, Particle number and Meteorology. The concepts of her Aerosol study are interwoven with issues in Analytical chemistry, Particle-size distribution, Particle size and Nucleation. Her research integrates issues of Planetary boundary layer, Turbulence, Mass concentration and Beijing in her study of Atmospheric sciences.

Her research in Particle intersects with topics in Range, Air mass, Mineralogy, Condensation and Relative humidity. Environmental chemistry is closely connected to Particulates in her research, which is encompassed under the umbrella topic of Particle number. Her research links Ultrafine particle with Meteorology.

She most often published in these fields:

  • Aerosol (64.29%)
  • Atmospheric sciences (45.00%)
  • Particle (35.71%)

What were the highlights of her more recent work (between 2013-2021)?

  • Atmospheric sciences (45.00%)
  • Aerosol (64.29%)
  • Particle (35.71%)

In recent papers she was focusing on the following fields of study:

Birgit Wehner mainly investigates Atmospheric sciences, Aerosol, Particle, Planetary boundary layer and Particle number. The various areas that Birgit Wehner examines in her Atmospheric sciences study include Radiative transfer, Turbulence, Mass concentration and Latent heat. Her studies in Aerosol integrate themes in fields like Humidity, Climatology and Wavelength.

Her Particle research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Natural ventilation and Geophysics. Birgit Wehner combines subjects such as Warm season, Cloud condensation nuclei, Particle deposition and Nucleation with her study of Particle number. Her work carried out in the field of Boundary layer brings together such families of science as Ultrafine particle and Meteorology.

Between 2013 and 2021, her most popular works were:

  • ALADINA – an unmanned research aircraft for observing vertical and horizontal distributions of ultrafine particles within the atmospheric boundary layer (47 citations)
  • The HD(CP)2 Observational Prototype Experiment (HOPE) - An overview (46 citations)
  • An Observational Case Study on the Influence of Atmospheric Boundary-Layer Dynamics on New Particle Formation (40 citations)

In her most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:

  • Organic chemistry
  • Meteorology
  • Aerosol

Birgit Wehner spends much of her time researching Atmospheric sciences, Aerosol, Turbulence, Planetary boundary layer and Particle number. Her research combines Nitric acid and Atmospheric sciences. Her Turbulence research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Humidity, Radiation and Inversion.

In her study, Particulates, Hydrology, Sea salt aerosol and Sea salt is strongly linked to Troposphere, which falls under the umbrella field of Planetary boundary layer. Her study on Particle number is covered under Particle. Her work deals with themes such as Emission inventory, Air mass, Mineralogy and Sea spray, which intersect with Particle.
