Project title | European Atmospheric Research LIdar COoperation on Science and Technology
Project Code | CA24135
Main objective | The Action aims to deepen our understanding on atmospheric composition and improve the capabilities of atmospheric lidars to address critical gaps in aerosol characterization, temperature, and water vapor profiling. The vertical distribution of these key atmospheric variables provides crucial insights on air quality, public health, weather, and climate. In particular, aerosols are among the most significant drivers of climate change, and one of the largest sources of uncertainty in climate models which stems from their complex interactions with radiation and clouds. Thus, it is widely recognized that the spatiotemporal variability of aerosol properties plays a major role in numerous atmospheric processes that affect our lives.
