معرفی
Dr. Patrik Winiger is a Scientist at the Paul Scherrer Institute (PSI) in Switzerland, specializing in atmospheric chemistry and short-lived climate pollutants. His research spans macromolecular aerosols, combustion products, and biogenic particles (algae, bacteria, dust, soot) in the cryosphere, with implications for climate, health, and planetary albedo.
- Education: MSc in Chemistry (University of Basel), BSc in Chemical Engineering (University of Applied Sciences Northwestern Switzerland)
His work focuses on Arctic and Alpine environments, isotopic characterization of pollutants, and mitigation strategies. Recent projects include MACrAA (macromolecular aerosols in cryosphere) and GreenFjord (climate impacts on Greenlandic ecosystems).
Publications highlight trends in black carbon source apportionment, biomass burning emissions, and microbial dynamics in pristine environments. He has contributed to isotopic modeling of Arctic pollution and health exposure studies during train travel.
- Awards: IASC Fellow (2024), SNSF Ambizione Fellow (2022-2026)
