[PROJECT] CIPA - Comprehensive investigations of polar stratospheric aerosols (CIPA)
ID: EVK2-CT-2000-00095
Start date: 2000-10-01, End date: 2003-06-30
Greenhouse gases may decrease stratospheric temperatures, causing widespread formation of polar stratospheric clouds (spec) a key process for ozone depletion in a future climate. The objective is to obtain a detailed knowledge of the pathways to formation of spec. The investig...

[PROJECT] SCOUT-O3 - Stratosphere-Climate Links With Emphasis On The UTLS
ID: 505390
Start date: 2004-05-01, End date: 2009-08-31
Reliable prediction of the future evolution of the ozone layer and surface UV is urgently required as a basis for informed decisions by European policy makers. The state of the ozone layer over the next decades will depend on the interplay between climate changes and the impac...

[PROJECT] FIRE STAR - Fire star : a decision support system for fuel management and fire hazard reduction in mediterranean wildland-urban interfaces
ID: EVG1-CT-2001-00041
Start date: 2002-01-01, End date: 2005-03-31
The management of wild land-urban interfaces is one of the key-points of wild land fire prevention policy in Mediterranean regions. A decision support system is developed to assist end-users in the assessment of wild land fire risk for people and structures, and of the prevent...

[PROJECT] CARBOSOL - Present and retrospective state of organic versus inorganic aerosol over europe : implication for climate
ID: EVK2-CT-2001-00113
Start date: 2001-12-01, End date: 2005-05-31
The project attempts to quantify the radiative impact of organic/inorganic aerosol in Europe since ~ AD 1850. Present-day aerosol composition is investigated at remote sites on a west-east transect including precipitation samples. Apart from inorganic species, specific analyse...

[PROJECT] SOLICE - Solar influences on climate and the environment
ID: EVK2-CT-1999-00001
Start date: 2000-04-01, End date: 2004-01-01
Problems to be solved
Recent statistical studies of observational records suggest that variation in solar activity play a significant part in natural climate variability but a physical mechanism to account for the apparent solar effects has not been fully developed. Through en...

[PROJECT] PACE - Parameterization of the aerosol indirect climatic effect
ID: EVK2-CT-1999-00054
Start date: 2000-03-01, End date: 2002-06-30
Problems to be solved
Reliable predictions of climatic change are impossible unless the magnitude and distribution of the anthropogenic perturbations of the climate can be quantified. The radiative effects of greenhouse gases are well understood; but the indirect effects of an...
