Francesco Grieco

Francesco Grieco is a Researcher at Chalmers University of Technology, affiliated with the Department of Geosciences and Remote Sensing within the School of Space, Geo and Environmental Sciences (SEE). His research focuses on atmospheric chemistry and dynamics, utilizing satellite data from instruments like Odin/SMR to study key chemical species such as nitric oxide (NO), carbon monoxide (CO), and water vapor in the mesosphere and lower thermosphere. His work emphasizes long-term climatological analyses and validation of satellite measurements.

Recent publications (2020–2023) highlight contributions to understanding nonmigrating tides, mesospheric NO dynamics, and validation techniques for Odin/SMR datasets. His doctoral thesis (2022) explored 20 years of Odin/SMR observations to assess mesospheric chemical and dynamic processes. Grieco collaborates with institutions like NILU (Norway) and NILU (NOR) and actively publishes in journals like Journal of Atmospheric and Solar-Terrestrial Physics.

No scientific awards are explicitly mentioned, but his work demonstrates significant academic engagement in atmospheric remote sensing and climate-related studies.
