Atmospheric Aerosol Systems
The Atmospheric Aerosol Systems science theme focuses on understanding the chemistry, physics and molecular-scale dynamics of aerosols for model parameterization to improve the accuracy of climate model simulations and develop a predictive understanding of climate. By elucidating the role of natural and anthropogenic regional and global climate forcing mechanisms, EMSL can provide DOE and others with the ability to develop cost-effective strategies to monitor, control and mitigate them.
To advance this science theme, EMSL will employ our research and that of our users for:
- Biogenic organic aerosols: Develop a molecular-scale understanding of the processes that enhance controllable biogenic organic aerosol formation and determine their radiative properties to improve the accuracy of climate model simulations.
EMSL participates in and supports many Department of Energy Office of Science climate research programs, including the Office of Biological and Environmental Research's GOAmazon program. Read details on how EMSL supports GOAmazon.
