About
Enric Terradellas is a leading expert in atmospheric dust modeling and forecasting, with a primary focus on the transport of Saharan dust across Europe. His major contributions lie in the evaluation and intercomparison of state-of-the-art dust forecast models, particularly within the framework of the World Meteorological Organisation’s Sand and Dust Storm Warning Advisory and Assessment System (SDS-WAS). His most cited work, a 2016 study with 50 citations, rigorously assessed the predictions of five models during an intense Saharan dust outbreak in April 2011 that swept across western and northern Europe. This research was pivotal in identifying model strengths and weaknesses, directly improving the accuracy of operational dust warnings. By advancing the understanding of dust transport dynamics, Terradellas has helped mitigate the impacts of these events on air quality, aviation, and public health. His work remains a cornerstone for researchers and forecasters tackling the challenges of mineral dust in the atmosphere.
