About

C. Moulin is a leading figure in atmospheric aerosol research, with a focus on the transport and predictability of mineral dust and the development of satellite-based aerosol retrieval methods. Their work is instrumental in bridging numerical modeling and remote sensing to improve our understanding of dust impacts on climate and weather. A key contribution is the assessment of dust event predictability using the CHIMERE-DUST model, as demonstrated in their most-cited work (35 citations), which evaluated 3-day forecasts against AERONET and satellite data during the African Monsoon Multidisciplinary Analysis campaign. This research directly informs air quality forecasting and climate modeling. Moulin also advanced satellite aerosol monitoring by describing and validating an aerosol optical thickness (AOT) product over land using the SEVIRI sensor on Meteosat Second Generation (18 citations), a critical tool for nowcasting and climate observation. Their work is foundational for researchers studying dust cycles, aerosol radiative forcing, and the integration of model predictions with satellite observations to enhance environmental monitoring capabilities.
