Concept information
Preferred term
ACE-1
Definition
- The Southern Hemisphere Marine Aerosol Characterization Experiment (ACE-1) is the first of a series of experiments that will quantify the combined chemical and physical processes controlling the evolution and properties of the atmospheric aerosol relevant to radiative forcing and climate. The objectives of this series of process studies are to provide the necessary data to incorporate aerosols into global climate forcing by aerosols. The goal of ACE-1 is to document the chemical, physical, and optical characteristics and determine the controlling processes of the marine atmopsheric gas/aerosol systems over the North Atlantic Ocean and Mediterranean Sea, with a primary focus on the anthropogenic perturbation of these systems.
