The ACTRIS (Aerosols, Clouds and Trace Gases Research Infrastructure) network is currently being established at European level. ACTRIS aims to make measurement series on aerosols, clouds and trace gases (in-situ and remote) available for international research, and was included in the ESFRI (European Strategy Forum on Research Infrastructures) Roadmap in 2016. Operational activities within an ERIC (European Research Infrastructure Consortium) are set to begin in 2020. The international networking of measurement sites will enable more intensive data exchange and facilitate knowledge transfer and access to resources within the emerging European infrastructure. This European infrastructure is also intended to become a point of contact for policymakers and society.

We therefore invite you to a networking meeting:

ACTRIS (Aerosols, Clouds and Trace Gases Research Infrastructure) - AUSTRIA

30 May 2018, 10:00–13:00,

 The aim of the meeting is to network national research groups working with measurements of aerosols, clouds and trace gases, to provide an update on the current status of ACTRIS-Austria, and to facilitate further and new collaborations.

Provisional Programme

1. Current status of ACTRIS and ACTRIS-Austria
2. Overview of the currently planned Central Facilities and National Facilities
