About
Mark Iredell is a leading figure in aerosol modeling and operational forecasting, with a career dedicated to improving how the world predicts and understands atmospheric aerosols. His primary research focuses on the development and validation of global aerosol ensemble systems, particularly through his work with the International Cooperative for Aerosol Prediction (ICAP). Iredell’s most significant contribution is spearheading the creation of the ICAP Multi-Model Ensemble (ICAP-MME), a groundbreaking framework that combines outputs from multiple operational aerosol models to produce a more accurate and reliable consensus forecast. His seminal 2015 paper, which has garnered over 130 citations, established the basic climatological characteristics of this ensemble, demonstrating its value for both operational use and basic research. This work has been instrumental in advancing aerosol prediction capabilities at major numerical weather prediction centers worldwide. By fostering international collaboration and standardizing ensemble approaches, Iredell has helped bridge the gap between research and operational forecasting, making him a key architect of the global aerosol monitoring infrastructure that supports climate studies, air quality management, and public health.
