"Black Carbon in the Atmosphere: Emissions, Aging and Cloud Interactions" (BLACARAT)

Date du début: 1 mars 2014, Date de fin: 28 févr. 2019,

"Atmospheric aerosol particles have been shown to impact the earth's climate because they scatter and absorb solar radiation (direct effect) and because they can modify the microphysical properties of clouds by acting as cloud condensation nuclei or ice nuclei (indirect effects). Radiative forcing by anthropogenic aerosols remains poorly quantified, thus leading to considerable uncertainty in our ...
