Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolAugustin Mortier is a research scientist at the Norwegian Meteorological Institute with a decade of experience evaluating climate models and advancing aerosol remote sensing using lidars and ceilometers. He leads and contributes to applied projects such as AeroVal, A-Profiles, V-Profiles and Aerosol Alerts that bridge observational datasets and model evaluation tools. With a PhD-era background in synergizing micro-lidar and sunphotometer records across sites like Lille and Dakar, he brings deep expertise in aerosol trends, variability and instrument characterization. His work blends field‑level measurement know‑how with open-source development—A-Profiles on GitHub demonstrates his practice of reproducible tools for the community. Based in Oslo, he applies rigorous observational evidence to improve air‑quality and climate model diagnostics for operational and research users. A less obvious strength is his track record of translating laboratory and instrument engineering experience into robust, production-ready evaluation systems.
