About
Dr. Swaleha Inamdar is an atmospheric scientist whose research focuses on aerosol characterization and air quality monitoring, with a particular emphasis on the Indian subcontinent. Her major contributions lie in advancing the understanding of aerosol vertical distribution and optical properties through innovative remote sensing techniques. In her highly cited 2023 study, she presented the first comprehensive comparison of ground-based MAX-DOAS aerosol measurements with AERONET and MODIS satellite data across diverse Indian environments—from urban pollution hotspots like Delhi and Pune to the pristine high-altitude site of Mahabaleshwar. This work, which has garnered 6 citations, demonstrated the critical importance of vertical profiling in accurately assessing aerosol loading and its climatic impacts. Dr. Inamdar’s research bridges critical gaps between ground-based, satellite, and model-derived aerosol data, providing essential validation for satellite retrievals over South Asia. Her findings have significant implications for understanding regional air pollution transport, health exposure assessments, and climate forcing estimates, making her a rising voice in Indian atmospheric chemistry and remote sensing.
