About
Justyna Lisok is an atmospheric scientist whose research focuses on the complex role of absorbing aerosols in the Arctic and mid-latitude regions. Her work is critical for understanding how these particles influence climate forcing, particularly through their vertical distribution and optical properties. In her highly cited 2019 study (22 citations), Lisok compared columnar, surface, and UAS profile measurements of absorbing aerosol optical depth and single-scattering albedo in South-East Poland, addressing a critical gap in remote sensing data. This work highlights the challenge of determining whether aerosols have a net warming or cooling effect, depending on factors like altitude and surface reflectivity. Earlier, as part of the 2014 iAREA campaign in Spitsbergen (13 citations), she investigated the physical and chemical properties of Arctic aerosols, contributing foundational data on aerosol composition in this sensitive region. Lisok’s research is notable for its innovative use of unmanned aerial systems (UAS) to capture vertical profiles, a technique that provides more accurate measurements than traditional ground-based or satellite methods. Her findings are essential for improving climate models and understanding aerosol–cloud–radiation interactions in a warming world.
