About
Myeong‐Jae Jeong is a remote sensing and atmospheric scientist whose research has made significant contributions to our understanding of aerosol properties and their accurate measurement from both ground-based and satellite platforms. His most influential work centers on aerosol retrieval algorithms, particularly the development and extension of the Aerosol Single-scattering albedo and layer Height Estimation (ASHE) algorithm, which leverages synergistic satellite observations from VIIRS, OMPS, and CALIOP to retrieve the vertical height of smoke and dust aerosols — a study that has garnered 55 citations. Jeong has also tackled the challenging problem of aerosol optical thickness measurements near clouds, disentangling genuine physical effects from observational artifacts in a widely cited 2010 study with 53 citations. His 2012 work on cirrus cloud contamination in ground-based aerosol observations, utilizing collocated lidar networks including AERONET, further demonstrates his commitment to improving measurement reliability. Collectively, Jeong's research has strengthened the scientific community's ability to characterize aerosol distributions accurately — work that carries important implications for climate modeling, air quality monitoring, and satellite data validation.
