Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolSasu Karttunen is a research associate and atmospheric scientist with a PhD in physics, combining nine years of experience in urban meteorology, large-eddy simulation (LES) development, and terabyte-scale atmospheric data analysis. Based at BFH and TU Delft, he focuses on harmonising ground-based lidar and satellite radar observations to quantify spatio-temporal variability in global liquid cloud cover and its climate-driven changes. His background in high-resolution LES and urban boundary-layer transport gives him a rare ability to connect process-level modelling with large observational datasets. Sasu’s work emphasizes measurement processing and scalable analysis pipelines, enabling reproducible, multi-source cloud climatologies. He has a track record of translating detailed urban-scale insights into global observational frameworks, and has collaborated across Helsinki, Delft, and Bern. Fluent in turning complex atmospheric measurements into robust datasets, he bridges field observations, remote sensing, and model development.
