Modeling ozone and aerosol
(Giovanni Pitari, Eva Mancini, Daniela Iachetti, Natalia De Luca, Glauco Di Genova)
The research on modeling of atmospheric ozone and aerosols is carried out mainly in the context of international projects such as EC-REACT4C, CCMVal, CCMI, AeroCom and GeoMIP and is addressed primarily to the study of:
• budgets chemical, radiative and dynamical of ozone and its precursors;
• chemical and climatic impact of emissions from air fleets;
• global distribution of tropospheric and stratospheric aerosols;
• radiative perturbation-climatic aerosols of volcanic origin;
• radiative perturbation of stratospheric aerosols and climate geoengineering experiments.
The results are published in international journals and scientific reports in the assessment of leading international organizations in the field of environment and climate: IPCC,
WMO, NASA, WCRP, SPARC.
