Notice: Function _load_textdomain_just_in_time was called incorrectly. Translation loading for the twentynineteen domain was triggered too early. This is usually an indicator for some code in the plugin or theme running too early. Translations should be loaded at the init action or later. Please see Debugging in WordPress for more information.

To analyze, quantify and model the feedbacks among the Earth’s atmospheric, terrestrial, and oceanic environments under historic, current and potential future climate change scenarios
To determine anthropogenic and natural contributions to atmospheric composition, and understand their effects on air quality and climate
Why it Matters
To improve understanding of the Earth’s complex atmosphere along with our predictive capabilities
To better define how the atmosphere is linked regionally and globally to the climate system
Recent Accomplishments
Aerosol and chemical transport modeling to quantify the sources and variability of tropospheric aerosol over the North Atlantic
Quantification of biomass burning plume injection height using CALIOP lidar and MODIS data
Investigation of interdisciplinary science potential of a future geostationary coastal ocean color sensor
Development of in situ aerosol spectral extinction instrument
