The Meteorological Society of Japan has awarded GRASP Earth fellow Masahiro Momoi for his work on the development of an innovative radiative transfer solution in three-dimensional atmosphere.
More details can be found here:
The prestigious recognition relates to the work on the 3D-IMS method, a new approach to efficiently calculate radiative intensity in complex 3D atmospheric conditions. The method extends the Improved Multiple and Single scattering (IMS) framework with backward ray tracing, enabling accurate and computationally efficient modeling of radiance fields—an important step for aerosol, cloud, and radiation remote sensing.
