Research Interests

  • Aerosol and cloud science
  • Radiative Effects
  • Air Quality

Dr. Meloë Kacenelenbogen currently leads a project on the effects of aerosol and cloud variability on satellite-derived all-skies direct aerosol radiative effects over the Atlantic. She is also involved in a project that combines passive-active, multi-sensors to sound the Earth's planetary boundary layer. She is a team member of the Atmospheric Observing System (AOS) space-borne mission. Her role is to collect and inform the AOS team and the NASA DAAC of the Program of Record (PoR) needed to address AOS science objectives, produce at-launch AOS science products, and evaluate AOS science products.

Dr. Kacenelenbogen is a research scientist at NASA Goddard Space Flight Center (GSFC). She has spent most of her career working on the optical remote sensing observation of fine suspended particles (aerosols) in the atmosphere from ground-based, airborne, and space-borne passive and active instruments. Her expertise is mostly in the characterization of aerosol type, amount, vertical distribution, and direct radiative effects.
