ACTRIS Project

ACTRIS (Aerosols, Clouds, and Trace gases Research InfraStructure Network) is a European Project aiming at integrating European ground-based stations equipped with advanced atmospheric probing instrumentation for aerosols, clouds, and short-lived gas-phase species. This European ground-based network will contribute to:

- providing long-term observational data relevant to climate and air quality research produced with standardized or comparable procedures;

- supporting transnational access to large infrastructures strengthening collaboration in and outside the EU and access to high quality information and services to the user communities;

- developing new integration tools to fully exploit the use of atmospheric techniques at ground-based stations, in particular for the calibration/validation/integration of satellite sensors and for the improvement of global and regional-scale climate and air quality models.
