About

M. Wiegner is a leading figure in atmospheric aerosol research, with a primary focus on the long-range transport of mineral dust and its impact on climate and air quality. His work is distinguished by the integration of advanced lidar remote sensing with transport modeling to characterize dust plumes. A key contribution is his detailed analysis of a major Saharan dust event during the SAMUM 2006 campaign, where he combined EARLINET lidar observations with AERONET Sun photometer data to validate dust transport models. This study, which has garnered 3 citations, provided critical insights into the geometrical and optical properties of dust plumes as they travel from North Africa to Southern Europe. Wiegner’s research is foundational for improving the accuracy of dust forecasts and understanding aerosol radiative effects, making him a respected authority in the field of atmospheric physics and environmental monitoring.
