Atmospheric dust gives us one of the most visible and detectable aspects of transboundary transport of atmospheric constituents, impacting visibility, radiation and climate. What is less evident are its impacts on health, transportation and energy production.

Atmospheric dust is not fully understood at the fundamental level and models fail to fully...

Cloud, aerosols and their interactions are key regulators of climate. However, uncertainties in the magnitude of the net cooling impact of aerosols on climate and in the cloud response to evolving anthropogenic emissions and climate change induced feedbacks on natural emissions are major challenges that limit our understanding of how global and regional climate, including...

The goal of HEAVY is to better understand and quantify the emission, transport and deposition of coarse and super coarse dust and their role on dust climate effects.

The overarching hypotheses are that 1) coarse and super coarse dust play a fundamental role in shaping the overall climate effect of desert dust, 2) a combination of uncertainties and...

The network aims at consolidating, strengthening and promoting the role of the ACTRIS-Spain community in the framework of the ACTRIS ERIC consortium, to be legally established soon through its publication in the Official Journal of the European Union and to which Spain has officially expressed its commitment.
