JATAC 2021 is about to start

The weather is good but not everywhere so we will take final decision tomorrow afternoon. First stop Jerez in Andalusia / sothern Spain hometown of popular strong Sherry wine and after direct overwater to Sao Vicente. Long days ahead. Griša is coming with regular flight via Lisbon.

We will perform in-situ aircraft measurements of aerosol optical and physical properties. The focus of our investigations will be complex mixtures of dust and soot and their contribution to the Aeolus lidar signals. Our primary focus is the calibration and validation of the Aeolus satellite products. Additionally, we intend to investigate the role of these complex aerosol mixtures to climate change.
