  1. ESA GlobAerosol Project Global Aerosol from Satellite Measurements

  2. Objectives: • To satisfy users’ requirements for global aerosol information from satellite data. • Users: • 1. ECMWF, MeteoFrance, MPI-Met • NWP and aerosol modelling • 2. EMEP (NILU) • Transboundary pollution monitoring • 3. Environment Agencies: VMM, LUA/NRW, ARPA, HME • Air quality and human health

  3. Tasks: • Development of a satellite data processing system to generate a standard reference multi-year global aerosol product (GAP) over land and water. • Production of the GAP covering 1995–2007 • Validation of the GAP using independent ground-based measurements. • Intercomparison of the GAP with other satellite-based aerosol data sets. • Exploitation of the satellite aerosol data set in the context of atmospheric models

  4. Agenda: • 9h00 – 9h30: • Introduction Simon Pinnock (ESA) • GlobAerosol Project Overview Óscar Pérez Navarro (GMV) • 9h30 – 10h30: • Aerosol Products and Retrieval Algorithm Gareth Thomas (U. Oxford) • Aerosol Product Validation Caroline Poulsen (RAL) • Intercomparison results Caroline Poulsen (RAL) • 10h30 – 11h00: Coffee break • 11h00 – 13h00: Reports from the Users • A statistical and seasonal AOD analysis with global model and and satellite observations: first results, Maria Frontoso (Univ Leeds) • Aerosol optical depths in the ECMWF/GEMS model: Comparisons with the GlobAerosol dataset, Carole Peubey (ECMWF) • Assimilation of GlobAerosol SEVIRI AOD data during dust-storm and forest-fire event, Arjo Segers, Lyana Curier, Peter Builtjes (TNO) • Using the GEOS-Chem CTM to help evaluate the GlobAerosol daily merged/AATSR AOD product, Paul Palmer and Win Trivitayanurak (Univ Edinburgh) • Comparison of GlobAerosol products in the frame of AeroCom, Michael Schulz (LSCE) and Stefan Kinne, (MPI-Met) • 13h00 – 14h00: Lunch break • 14h00 – 15h30: • The ESA Climate Change Initiative - Aerosol ECV Simon Pinnock (ESA) • Lessons learned from GlobAerosol Don Grainger (U. Oxford)
