Research project FORCeS
FORCeS - Constrained aerosol forcing for improved climate projections
We use and develop experimental and theoretical methods to examine how aerosol particles are emitted, formed, and transported in the atmosphere and how particles och gases interact with clouds, precipitation, radiation, and climate.
Our methods include in-situ and satellite observations, machine learning, and numerical modelling on different spatial and temporal scales.
