NETCARE Research Activities
NETCARE has been configured around four research activities that
address key uncertainties in the field. The first three are focused on specific aerosol-climate connections that remain poorly characterized, and will be addressed through a variety of
observational approaches. The fourth activity integrates the results from Activities 1-3, approaching the subject from a comprehensive modeling perspective so as to provide a broad assessment of aerosol
climate effects.
Activity 1: Carbonaceous Aerosol
Activity 2: Ice Cloud Formation and Impacts
Activity 3: Ocean-Atmosphere Interactions
Activity 4: Implications of Measurements on Simulations of Atmospheric Processes and Climate
The figure below illustrates the vision inherent to the network.
