About
Boyan Tatarov is a prominent atmospheric physicist whose research centers on aerosol remote sensing, particularly the optical and microphysical properties of mineral dust. His major contribution lies in advancing the use of lidar and sun-photometer data to characterize aerosol types, with a focus on the spectral depolarisation and lidar ratio of dust particles. His highly cited 2018 paper (88 citations) provides critical reference values for aerosol typing and separation in lidar measurements, directly improving the accuracy of global aerosol models. Tatarov’s work has been instrumental in refining the AERONET inversion product, enabling more reliable dust detection and classification. His research impacts climate science, air quality monitoring, and satellite validation, with his findings frequently used by the international lidar community. Through his systematic approach to linking ground-based observations with remote sensing, Tatarov has established himself as a key figure in aerosol optics, helping to bridge the gap between laboratory studies and real-world atmospheric measurements.
