Alexander A. KokhanovskyDr. Alexander A. Kokhanovsky received the M.S. degree in theoretical physics from the Belarussian State University, Minsk, Belarus, in 1983 and the Ph.D. degree in optical physics from the B. I. Stepanov Institute of Physics, National Academy of Scieces of Belarus, Minsk, in 1991. His Ph.D. work was focused on modeling light scattering properties of aerosol media, clouds, and foams.

He is the Editor of Springer Series in Light Scattering and Wiley Series in Atmospheric Physics and Remote Sensing. He is the author of the books Light Scattering Media Optics: Problems and Solutions (Springer-Praxis, 1999, 2001, 2004), Polarization Optics of Random Media (Springer-Praxis, 2003), Cloud Optics (Springer, 2006), and Aerosol Optics (Springer-Praxis, 2008). He has published more than 200 papers in the field of environmental optics, radiative transfer, remote sensing, and light scattering. His research is directed toward the solution of various forward and inverse problems of atmospheric optics.
