Atanas Dommo holds a PhD in atmospheric science with specialisations in climate science and climate change. Currently, his research focuses on clouds and aerosols’ radiative effects over Central Africa in the context of climate change. This includes studying cloud variability in Central Africa, and its local impact on the climate over the subregion. Dr Dommo also has extensive knowledge of managing and analysing large datasets, as well as of statistical tools that can be applied to the field of climate change. He has also worked on analysing the new rainfall datasets collected from the microwave telecommunications network in Cameroon, with the aim of improving data quality for the benefit of national meteorological agencies, policymakers and researchers.
