Aerosol and aerosol-cloud Interaction from Remote SENSing Enhancement (AIRSENSE)

Project leader:
dr hab. Iwona S. Stachlewska
Funding institution:
European Space Agency (ESA-ESRIN)
Realization period:
Aug. 31, 2023 - Nov. 30, 2025
dr hab. Iwona S. Stachlewska Project leader

Co-contractors:

The UW team supports the realization of the project under lead of Dr. Łucja Janicka (Project PI at UW, currently on maternity leave), Iwona Stachlewska (Current PI at UW), and contributors Dominika Szczepanik, Emaka Ugboma, and Igor Okraska.

AIRSENSE’s main objective is to enhance the understanding of aerosol and aerosol-cloud interactions. This activity is part of Atmosphere Science Cluster of ESA’s EO Science for Society programme, an element of the ESA FutureEO programme, which aims at boosting Europe’s excellence in EO science and its applications. One of the goals of this programme is to establish a strong coordinated scientific effort in Europe on Aerosol and Aerosol/Cloud interaction research by promoting a cooperation between activities launched by ESA and the European Commission (EC), in particular with CLEANCLOUD  and CERTAINTY projects realized within the EC Horizon Europe Call “Improved knowledge in cloud-aerosol interaction” (HORIZON-CL5-2023-D1-01-04).
