Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Organic chemistry
  • Meteorology
  • Optics

His primary areas of investigation include Aerosol, Atmospheric sciences, Radiative forcing, Environmental science and Soot. His study with Aerosol involves better knowledge in Meteorology. His Meteorology study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Incandescence and Forcing.

In his papers, he integrates diverse fields, such as Environmental science and Sea salt. His Stratosphere research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Mie scattering and Mixing ratio. His Sulfate research incorporates themes from Environmental chemistry, Mineralogy, Troposphere and Mass spectrometry.

His most cited work include:

  • Single‐particle measurements of midlatitude black carbon and light‐scattering aerosols from the boundary layer to the lower stratosphere (458 citations)
  • Single‐particle measurements of midlatitude black carbon and light‐scattering aerosols from the boundary layer to the lower stratosphere (458 citations)
  • In Situ Measurements of Organics, Meteoritic Material, Mercury, and Other Elements in Aerosols at 5 to 19 Kilometers (457 citations)

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

His primary scientific interests are in Aerosol, Atmospheric sciences, Environmental science, Troposphere and Mass spectrometry. His Aerosol research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Soot, Sulfate, Mineralogy and Chemical composition. Relative humidity is closely connected to Nitrate in his research, which is encompassed under the umbrella topic of Mineralogy.

His study in Atmospheric sciences is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Mineral dust, Radiative forcing and Altitude. His Radiative forcing study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Radiative transfer, Atmosphere, Absorption and Mixing ratio. His work in the fields of Mass spectrometry, such as Mass spectrum, overlaps with other areas such as Materials science.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Aerosol (104.65%)
  • Atmospheric sciences (72.09%)
  • Environmental science (61.63%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2008-2021)?

  • Atmospheric sciences (72.09%)
  • Aerosol (104.65%)
  • Troposphere (41.86%)

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

His primary areas of study are Atmospheric sciences, Aerosol, Troposphere, Environmental science and Spectrometer. His studies deal with areas such as Mass spectrometry and Analytical chemistry as well as Aerosol. His Mass spectrometry study combines topics in areas such as Detection limit, Mineralogy and Air quality index.

His research in Troposphere focuses on subjects like Altitude, which are connected to Tropopause, Ice nucleus, Cirrus and Scattering. His Spectrometer research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Mass spectrum, Boundary layer, Lens, Sea salt and Sulfate. His work on Stratosphere is typically connected to Inversion as part of general Climatology study, connecting several disciplines of science.

Between 2008 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Characteristics, sources, and transport of aerosols measured in spring 2008 during the aerosol, radiation, and cloud processes affecting Arctic Climate (ARCPAC) Project (182 citations)
  • Characteristics, sources, and transport of aerosols measured in spring 2008 during the aerosol, radiation, and cloud processes affecting Arctic Climate (ARCPAC) Project (182 citations)
  • Aerosol composition of the tropical upper troposphere (121 citations)
