Another PhD defence @UEF Aerosol Physics Group: Irfan Muhammad defending his thesis on modelling aerosol effects on climate. Pontus Roldin (the Opponent) doesn’t let him off easy. And @harrikokkola.bsky.social (the Custos) sweating there in the middle.

Abstract. The response in cloud water content to changes in cloud condensation nuclei remains one of the major uncertainties in determining how aerosols can perturb cloud properties. In this study, we...

Osallistuttiin @harrikokkola.bsky.social:n kanssa hienoon tutkimukseen, jossa onnistuttiin tarkentamaan arvioita savuhiukkasten vaikutuksesta ilmastoon.

Ilmakehämallit eivät ole täydellisiä, mutta meillä on keinoja parantaa niiden tuottamia arvioita

A new study shows that constraining the properties of absorbing aerosol results in a threefold reduction in modeled direct radiative effects of biomass burning aerosol

Constraining absorbing biomass burning aerosols greatly reduce the uncertainty of regional aerosol direct radiative effects.
