Citation | Ken Carslaw’s important discoveries have transformed our understanding of how aerosol particles affect Earth’s climate and the composition of the atmosphere. He was a pioneer in the development of sophisticated global models of aerosol processes. His highly successful collaborations linking laboratory and field measurements with these models resulted in the first global simulations in which aerosol formation was based solely on laboratory experimental data. He has been a leader in combining statistical methods and atmospheric measurements to generate unprecedented information about the causes of model uncertainty, revealing in particular the vital role of natural aerosols in modulating human-induced climate change. |
