Transfer of expertise in atmospheric monitoring of urban pollutants

Objective

Monitoring the chemical composition of the Earth's atmosphere is essential in order to understand and model the most relevant atmospheric processes and assess their impact on the development of the Earth's climate and the consequences for modern society. The Centre for Research into Atmospheric Chemistry (University College Cork, Ireland) requires the experimental know-how in applied remote-sensing methodologies and field campaigns, backed by theoretical expertise on atmospheric modelling to advance several highly innovative lab-based spectroscopic approaches for ultra-sensitive trace gas detection in the troposphere. It is the long-term ambition of TEAM-UP to establish a Centre of Excellence as a base for a national training network for atmospheric scientists working at Universities and research institutes over the whole island of Ireland. The proposed knowledge transfer will generate new and tighten existing links with large-scale multi-national research efforts in atmospheric sciences.
