Daniel Kühbacher

Daniel Kühbacher is a Tutor and researcher at the Chair of Environmental Sensing and Modeling at Technische Universität München (TUM). He specializes in developing high-resolution urban emission inventories for CO2, CH4, and co-emitted species, and leads the setup of a 100-sensor CO2 network in Munich to assess sector-specific emission factors. His work bridges environmental monitoring, sensor technology, and urban climate science.

Teaching roles include tutoring the Environmental Sensing and Modeling lecture and advanced seminar, as well as the joint practical course Gemeinschaftspraktikum MST. Research focuses on integrating traffic simulation data, mobile measurement units, and flux footprint modeling to quantify urban greenhouse gas emissions.

• Education: M.Sc. in Environmental Engineering
• Affiliations: Member of the ICOS Cities project and contributor to the ICOS Science Network

Publications emphasize urban GHG monitoring innovations, including sensor network optimization, flux measurement validation, and inventory intercomparison studies. His work supports policy-relevant insights into emission hotspots and mitigation strategies. Currently develops the SCOUT project for street-level carbon observatories and explores human respiration emissions using mobile network data.
