About

Monica Campanelli is a leading figure in atmospheric aerosol and water vapor remote sensing, with a career dedicated to enhancing the accuracy and interoperability of global radiometer networks. Her research focuses on the harmonization of aerosol optical depth (AOD) and single scattering albedo (SSA) retrievals between major networks like AERONET and SKYNET, as well as the development of robust software for sun-sky radiometers. Campanelli’s most influential work, a long-term (1995–2018) study of AOD at aged-background sites (76 citations), provides a critical baseline for climate studies. She has also identified key factors causing inconsistencies in SSA between SKYNET and AERONET (44 citations), directly improving data quality for climate modeling. Further contributions include validating precipitable water vapor retrievals from the ESR/SKYNET network against GNSS/GPS and AERONET (43 citations), and evaluating the impact of columnar NO₂ on aerosol property retrievals. As a key architect of the EuroSkyRad (ESR) network, Campanelli has advanced the federation of European and Asian radiometer systems, enabling more reliable, long-term atmospheric observations. Her work is essential for researchers studying aerosol radiative forcing, air quality, and climate change.
