Erik Swietlicki is a Professor of Physics at Lund University, specifically affiliated with Lund University of Technology (LTH). He serves as Principal Investigator at the Center for Aerosol Research (CAST) and NanoLund: Center for Nanoscience. His academic appointments include membership in the Center for Environmental and Climate Science (CEC) and several profile areas focusing on Aerosols, Nanoscience and semiconductor technology, Light and materials, and Nature-based future solutions. Dr. Swietlicki's research expertise spans atmospheric science with particular emphasis on aerosol-cloud-climate interactions. His work integrates extensive field measurements with sophisticated modeling approaches, notably through the ACTRESS modeling framework. His research portfolio addresses critical questions regarding how atmospheric particles influence climate systems, air quality, and human health. The profile indicates strong expertise in aerosol physics, climate science, and environmental monitoring. Analysis of his recent publications reveals a significant focus on black carbon aerosols, ice nucleation processes, and bioaerosols across diverse environments from Arctic regions to Southern Swedish forests. His research shows an increasing integration of health implications alongside climate effects, reflecting a holistic approach to atmospheric particulate matter research. His work frequently involves international collaborations and contributes to major climate research initiatives. Member Steering Board: Lund Institute of Advanced Neutron and X-ray Science (LINXS) (2016) Dr. Swietlicki actively supervises research and leads numerous significant projects including the MERGE SP: ARTofMELT Arctic Ocean icebreaker expedition, CEC Fellows program, and UFPMalmö project mapping ultrafine particles in Swedish urban areas. He plays a key role in the ACTRIS Sweden national research infrastructure for short-lived climate pollutants and has organized major events like the MERGE annual meeting 2024 and Swedish Climate Symposium 2024. His laboratory work centers around the Center for Aerosol Research (CAST) where advanced instrumentation is developed and deployed for atmospheric measurements. His research group maintains extensive international collaborations through projects like MERGE (Modeling the Regional and Global Earth system) and participates in global climate research networks addressing critical environmental challenges.
