Projektbeschreibung der*des Nominierenden
| Professor Kim is a distinguished atmospheric scientist and internationally recognized for pioneering satellite remote sensing of aerosols, air pollutants, ozone and greenhouse gases. His research integrates advanced physical and AI-based retrieval algorithms to significantly enhance atmospheric composition monitoring from space. During his stay, Professor Kim will cooperate with the atmospheric community to combine observations of the air composition made from the Korean Geostationary Environmental Monitoring Spectrometer and atmospheric modeling investigations conducted in Germany. |
