About
Hannakaisa Lindqvist is a researcher advancing the frontiers of atmospheric remote sensing, with a core focus on aerosol–trace gas interactions and satellite-based retrieval methodologies. Her work is pivotal in understanding how atmospheric aerosols—tiny particles suspended in the air—affect the accuracy of satellite observations of greenhouse gases like carbon dioxide (CO₂). In her highly cited 2025 study, Lindqvist provides a global perspective on CO₂ satellite observations under high aerosol optical depth (AOD) conditions, demonstrating how scattering and absorption by aerosols complicate retrievals of column-averaged CO₂ (XCO₂). This contribution is critical for improving climate monitoring and carbon cycle science. She further strengthens the field through her 2021 work on Bayesian uncertainty quantification, where she introduces a novel statistical framework for aerosol model selection in AOD retrieval from TROPOMI measurements. By delivering more realistic, pixel-level uncertainty estimates, Lindqvist enhances the reliability of satellite-derived aerosol data. With her innovative approaches to uncertainty and aerosol correction, she is shaping the next generation of atmospheric composition monitoring, directly supporting efforts to track global carbon emissions and understand climate change.
