About

Dashdondog Batdorj is a leading figure in atmospheric aerosol research, with a primary focus on the remote sensing of aerosol optical properties. His most influential contribution, the 2014 paper "Ceilometer calibration for retrieval of aerosol optical properties," has garnered 50 citations, establishing a foundational methodology for using ceilometers—traditionally cloud-base instruments—to accurately characterize aerosols. This work addresses a critical gap in atmospheric monitoring, enabling more precise measurements of particle light extinction and backscatter, which are essential for understanding air quality, climate forcing, and visibility. Batdorj’s research has advanced the calibration techniques that allow low-cost, widely deployed ceilometers to serve as effective tools for aerosol profiling, bridging the gap between research-grade lidars and operational networks. His contributions have been particularly valuable for improving the spatial coverage of aerosol observations, especially in regions lacking sophisticated instrumentation. Through this work, Batdorj has demonstrated how innovative calibration protocols can transform standard meteorological equipment into powerful environmental sensors, making his research a cornerstone for both atmospheric scientists and operational monitoring agencies seeking cost-effective solutions for aerosol retrieval.
