About
Linghan Zeng is an atmospheric scientist whose research centers on aerosol microphysics, chemistry, and optical properties in the remote global atmosphere. Their most impactful contribution comes from their work on the NASA Atmospheric Tomography Mission (ATom), where they led the analysis of in situ measurements collected during global-scale flights from 2016 to 2018. These flights, spanning from approximately 84°N to 86°S over the Pacific, Atlantic, Arctic, and Southern oceans, provided an unprecedented view of ambient aerosol properties in some of the most pristine and under-sampled regions on Earth. Their flagship 2021 paper, which has garnered over 65 citations, is a cornerstone reference for understanding background aerosol conditions and their role in climate. By characterizing the microphysical, chemical, and optical signatures of remote aerosols, Zeng’s work helps constrain global climate models and improves our understanding of natural versus anthropogenic aerosol influences. This research is vital for students and scientists studying atmospheric chemistry, climate forcing, and the long-range transport of particles.
