About
Luca Pozzoli is a leading atmospheric scientist whose research centers on aerosol-climate interactions, air quality, and the long-range transport of pollutants. His work is instrumental in understanding how anthropogenic and natural aerosols impact regional climate, the water cycle, and human health, with a particular focus on South Asia and North Africa. Pozzoli’s highly cited 2015 study, “A multi-model evaluation of aerosols over South Asia” (149 citations), systematically identifies common biases in global models, highlighting the critical role of emission inventories and meteorological drivers in simulating aerosol distributions over this densely populated region. His 2014 analysis of North African dust (135 citations) provides a groundbreaking multimodel assessment of dust sources, sinks, and transatlantic transport, revealing significant model discrepancies when compared with satellite data. These contributions have been pivotal in improving the representation of aerosol processes in climate models. Pozzoli’s work is widely recognized for bridging observational and modeling communities, offering essential insights for policy-making on air quality and climate mitigation. His research continues to shape our understanding of how aerosols modulate regional and global climate systems.
