About
Yevgeny Derimian is a leading figure in aerosol remote sensing, whose work has fundamentally advanced our understanding of atmospheric particles and their climatic effects. His research centers on the development and validation of advanced retrieval algorithms, particularly the GRASP (Generalized Retrieval of Atmosphere and Surface Properties) algorithm, and the use of multi-angular polarimetry to characterize aerosol properties. Derimian’s major contributions include the rigorous validation of GRASP products against satellite data from POLDER/PARASOL, a study that has garnered 227 citations, and the critical validation of AERONET’s solar flux estimates using ground-based measurements (152 citations). He has also pioneered the GRASP/Component approach, enabling the retrieval of aerosol chemical composition from global AERONET measurements, leading to a new global dataset (32 citations) that is vital for climate modeling. His work on aerosol mixtures during the AMMA campaign in West Africa (99 citations) provided key insights into the radiative effects of dust and biomass burning. Through these efforts, Derimian has not only enhanced the fidelity of aerosol monitoring but also provided essential tools for assessing aerosol radiative forcing, making his research indispensable for climate science and atmospheric studies.
