About
Dr. Charles R. Sampson is a leading figure in aerosol science, whose work is critical for understanding and predicting atmospheric composition on a global scale. His primary research focuses on the development and evaluation of multi-model ensemble (MME) systems for operational aerosol forecasting. Dr. Sampson is a key contributor to the International Cooperative for Aerosol Prediction (ICAP), where his most-cited work (153 citations) provides a comprehensive update on the global operational aerosol MME, tracking its expansion from five to nine models and rigorously assessing its performance. This foundational research directly supports improved air quality and climate modeling. He has also made significant contributions to the study of regional aerosol phenomena, notably through his work on the 7 Southeast Asian Studies (7SEAS) project. His investigation into the "aerosol meteorology of the Maritime Continent" (44 citations) elucidated the complex regional-scale dynamics of biomass burning plumes, integrating data from AERONET, lidars, and field campaigns. Through these efforts, Dr. Sampson has advanced our ability to simulate and forecast aerosol distributions, providing essential tools for both operational agencies and the broader research community.
