About me

I specialize in process modelling to study aerosol-cloud interactions, a critical area in climate science. My research examines how aerosol properties—such as size, chemical composition, and hygroscopicity—interact with atmospheric dynamics to shape cloud properties. Using cloud parcel models, MCMC techniques, and long-term observational datasets, I focus on understanding the boreal forest's aerosol and cloud properties. By identifying and ranking the key parameters, my work aims to provide critical insights that will contribute to enhancing the accuracy and reliability of global climate models

An Integrated View on Coupled Aerosol-Cloud Interactions (INTEGRATE)

Despite their abundance in the Earth’s atmosphere, cloud formation and evolution are still poorly understood. This is particularly true for the interactions clouds have with atmospheric aerosol particles and their precursor vapors, which hampers our knowledge on the role that clouds and precipitation play in the climate system and in governing air quality.
