About
Dr. G. Argyropoulos is a leading environmental scientist specializing in atmospheric particulate matter (PM) pollution, source apportionment, and receptor modeling. His research focuses on identifying and quantifying the origins of PM10 and PM2.5 in complex urban and industrial environments, particularly in Greece. Dr. Argyropoulos’s major contributions include developing hybrid source-receptor modeling approaches that integrate chemical mass balance with multivariate statistical methods, enabling more accurate attribution of pollution sources. His most cited work, “Source apportionment of PM10 and PM2.5 in major urban Greek agglomerations using a hybrid source-receptor modeling process” (2017, 38 citations), provides critical insights into the contributions of traffic, biomass burning, and industrial emissions in cities like Athens and Thessaloniki. He has also advanced the field by introducing an iterative method to evaluate inter-comparability between different receptor models (2016), enhancing the reliability of source apportionment studies. With over 98 cumulative citations, Dr. Argyropoulos’s research is instrumental for policymakers and environmental agencies aiming to mitigate air pollution impacts on public health. His work in lignite-burning regions (2013, 23 citations) further underscores his expertise in assessing emissions from power generation and mining activities.
