Trends, patterns, and climate effects of aerosol in the Arctic (D02)

• Subject Area: Atmospheric Science
• Term: since 2016
• Project identifier: Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft (DFG) - Project number 268020496

Atmospheric aerosols are of major importance in shaping present–day and future Arctic amplification through local and remote climate effects. In (AC)3 phase III, the effects of trends, extremes, and future impact of Arctic aerosol on Arctic amplification will be investigated.
