About
Dr. Karen Kie Yan Chan is a leading environmental scientist whose research focuses on satellite-based aerosol remote sensing and air quality monitoring across the Asia-Pacific region. Her most impactful work centers on evaluating and comparing aerosol optical depth (AOD) measurements from geostationary and polar-orbiting satellites, particularly the Himawari-8/AHI and MODIS instruments. In her highly cited 2019 study, Dr. Chan demonstrated that Himawari-8/AHI's hourly aerosol products provide a powerful, dynamic complement to MODIS observations for monitoring pollution over China, significantly enhancing our capacity for real-time atmospheric monitoring. This work has garnered 43 citations, underscoring its importance in advancing satellite aerosol retrieval validation and application. Dr. Chan's contributions are vital for improving air quality forecasting and understanding aerosol transport patterns, making her research essential for both climate science and public health policy in the region.
