Projektbeschreibung der*des Nominierenden
| Professor Li is an international authority in the study of remote sensing of aerosols and their role in the climate system. He made outstanding contributions to the development of satellite algorithms that revolutionized the conventional understanding of shortwave radiative transfer in the earth’s atmosphere. In Germany, Professor Li works on the chemical and physical mechanisms that are responsible for the formation of stagnant air pollution episodes in northern China and analyzes space observations to quantify the role of weather patterns in the formation of these pollution events. |
