The project title is: ""Advanced multi-instrument record of stratospheric aerosol and the climate impact""
Using measurements from Canadian satellite instruments, the objective of this project is to extend and improve the space-based aerosol data record for the lower stratosphere. This is a challenging region to measure, but important as it has been shown to contain a potentially significant portion of the total aerosol budget. An improved dataset will be used in combination with a Canadian coupled atmosphere-ocean climate model to understand the impact of aerosols on climate change.
