He is responsible for maintaining the "dark-target" aerosol retrieval for MODIS, and applying it to VIIRS and other sensors (AHI and ABI) to create a long-term global aerosol record and characterize the aerosol diurnal cycle. Dr. Levy’s research has ranged from applications of new algorithm development, monitoring surface air quality, aerosol/cloud interactions and aerosol trends. His publication list and citation metrics can be found at ResearcherID. Currently, he is the Flight Project Scientist for the GOES-R mission.
