TROPOS fully supports the declaration of solidarity of the Alliance of German Science Organisations and protests together with millions of researchers and students against the Russian invasion of Ukraine.
The Leibniz Institute for Tropospheric Research has a well-defined and globally unique research profile with a focus on small airborne aerosol particles and clouds. (Photo: Frédéric Batier)
Effect of aerosol particles on clouds and the climate captured better
Global measurements and model calculations show that the complex relationship between the chemistry and climate impact of aerosol particles can be successfully captured by a simple formula.
