Gaelle Dufour

Gaelle Dufour is a Research Professor at CNRS (French National Center for Scientific Research) affiliated with the Laboratoire Interuniversitaire des Systèmes Atmosphériques (LISA). Her work focuses on atmospheric chemistry, air quality, and pollution monitoring using satellite observations and modeling.

• Research Themes: Large-scale pollution, oxidant/particulate pollution, spectroscopy, ozone dynamics, NOx emissions, and climate impacts of wildfires.
• Labs: LISA (CNRS/Université Paris-Est Créteil/Université de Paris).

Recent Publications highlight her expertise in satellite-based pollution analysis, including NOx emission trends in Europe and China, ozone variability during the pandemic, and biomass burning aerosol tracking. Her work integrates IASI, TROPOMI, OMI, and ACE-FTS satellite data with CHIMERE and PYVAR-CHIMERE models.

Collaborations span institutions across France, China, Japan, and Europe, with emphasis on transboundary pollution and climate policy evaluation. She has contributed to the Tropospheric Ozone Assessment Report (TOAR), a landmark study on global ozone trends.
