About
Carlos Alexandre Santos Querino is a prominent Brazilian researcher whose work centers on atmospheric physics, aerosol remote sensing, and environmental monitoring in the Amazon and other Brazilian biomes. His major contributions lie in evaluating and validating satellite-derived aerosol optical depth (AOD) data against ground-based measurements, particularly through the use of the Copernicus Atmosphere Monitoring Service (CAMS) and AERONET networks. His highly cited study, “Evaluation of Aerosol Optical Depth (AOD) estimated by Copernicus Atmosphere Monitoring Service (CAMS) in Brazil” (2025), has already garnered 4 citations, underscoring its timely relevance for improving air quality and climate models in data-sparse tropical regions. Querino’s work is instrumental in refining aerosol transport and radiative forcing estimates, directly impacting public health and climate policy in South America. Beyond AOD, he has investigated biomass burning emissions and their influence on regional climate, often collaborating with international teams to advance Earth observation capabilities. His research is widely recognized for bridging satellite technology and local environmental challenges, making him a key figure in Latin American atmospheric science.
