AEROSAT

The International Satellite Aerosol Science Network (a.k.a. AEROSAT) is an initiative to help strengthen collaboration between different research groups around the world working on satellite aerosol retrieval. The AEROSAT constituting meeting took place in Hamburg (Germany), on 27 September 2013, in association with the 12th annual AeroCom meeting. The terms of reference, contact points and network participants are provided in the pages below... AEROSAT is an unfunded activity intended to be of mutual benefit to the scientific work of the network participants... Information on the occurrence and properties of atmospheric aerosol is of crucial importance for climate and atmospheric research, numerical weather prediction, air quality monitoring and natural hazards. Satellite retrieval of aerosol properties, together with ground-based in-situ and remote sensing, and atmospheric models, are the essential tools used to provide aerosol information.
