Kirill Yakovlevich Kondratyev (Russian: Кирилл Яковлевич Кондратьев; 14 June 1920 – 1 May 2006) was a Soviet and Russian atmospheric physicist.

Kirill Yakovlevich Kondratyev was born on 14 June 1920 in Rybinsk.[citation needed]

He went to school in Leningrad and in 1938 entered the University of Leningrad to study physics, mathematics, and chemistry.[citation needed]

In 1941, he joined the Russian army and fought in the siege of Leningrad. He graduated in atmospheric physics in 1946.[citation needed]

After graduating, Kondratyev was made an assistant professor in the Faculty of Physics.

He later held the posts of lecturer, research scientist, professor of atmospheric physics, chief of the Department of Atmospheric Physics, University Vice-Rector and Rector.[citation needed] From 1958-61 he was Head of the Department of Radiation Studies at the Main Geophysical Observatory.[citation needed]

He was a staff member of the Institute for Lake Research and the Research Centre for Ecological Safety, and also helped to create the Nansen International Environmental and Remote Sensing Centre.[citation needed]

During 1970-75, Kondratyev was a leading researcher in the Complex Atmospheric Energetic Experiment (CAENEX) project, the object of which was to study the transport of all categories of energy and all types of flux heat divergence in the atmosphere. Along with determining the shortwave(IR) absorption of atmospheric aerosols.
