Cloud-aerosol interactions & their impacts in the earth system project, funded by the Horizon Europe program, aims to advance our comprehension of clouds and aerosols in the climate. This project aims to refine and use observations and models to understand and describe the intricate interactions between clouds and aerosols within climate and weather systems.
Emerging observation technologies are being launched to increase our understanding of aerosol-cloud interactions. It is expected that the new EarthCare satellite will be launched in 2024 and will provide new, more accurate satellite-based observations of clouds, aerosols, and radiation. In addition, observational infrastructures provide global coverage of the properties of the atmosphere. This data will be the main source of data for complex computer modelling used for predicting and understanding the role clouds and aerosol to weather and climate.
