Moritz Makowski

Dr. Moritz Makowski is a Researcher at the Technical University of Munich, affiliated with the Professorship for Environmental Sensors and Modeling. His work focuses on urban greenhouse gas (GHG) transport modeling, inverse modeling, and sensor network evaluation, leveraging computational fluid dynamics (CFD) and Lagrangian Particle Dispersion Models (LPDMs).

• Key Research Areas: Atmospheric modeling, GHG monitoring, sensor networks, inverse modeling, urban climate studies, methane emission quantification

Scientific Contributions: Moritz has co-authored 15 recent publications (2022–2025) on topics like high-density CO2 sensor networks, satellite data validation, and LPDM-based source localization. His work includes developing open-source software tools Pyra and EM27/SUN pipelines for automating GHG measurements.

Collaborations: Active participant in the ICOS Cities and MUCCnet projects, contributing to urban emission assessments in Munich and Hamburg. Collaborates with international teams on FTIR spectrometer networks and OCO-2 satellite data comparisons.
